ANNUAL REPORT 2022 In last year’s Annual Report I reported that our efforts to focus on improving operating performance resulted in record revenue and profits in 2021, but more importantly that those improvements would continue to drive shareholder value for years to come. That has proven true for 2022, in which we again recorded record revenue and profits. Looking into 2023 and beyond, with interest rates likely to remain somewhat higher than in the recent past and posing challenges to retaining lower-cost deposits, operating efficiencies will be even more important to maintaining our strong profitability. I remain confident that the improvements we have made in our customer experience, streamlined operations and better use of data and analytics will continue to serve us well in this higher rate environment. The Company’s 2022 Annual Report to Shareholders is available on the Company’s website, and printed copies are available by request.

As with 2021, we saw record net revenue and record earnings per share for the year. The primary drivers of this performance were: • Our model of customer-centric service and relationship banking allowed us to grow loans and deposits, with loans growing by $1.08 billion, or 20.7%, and total deposits growing to $6.4 billion, an increase of 4.2% year-over-year; • A continued focus on reducing costs and increasing operating efficiencies; and • Increased use of technology across our business sectors. The investments we made in prior years to improving customer experience while more effectively controlling expenses continue to pay off. I cannot emphasize enough the contribution our team has made in implementing these changes while maintaining our strong culture that focuses on technology, training, personal development and pride in serving our customers better than ever before. We also took steps to position our balance sheet for further growth, principally through our issuance of $115 million of preferred stock but also by beginning to transition some of our consumer debt assets into U.S. treasury and agency securities. We also redeemed $40.0 million of our subordinated debt and injected $50 million of new capital into the Bank, all of which contributed to stronger capital ratios. In June 2022 we completed the acquisition of two branches from FNBC Bank & Trust, expanding our presence in the greater Chicagoland market. The acquisition brought us $16.6 million in loans and $79.8 million in deposits. In 2022 we also planned for improving our presence in Sterling, Illinois by building a new branch facility. The new facility opened last month. Our record results for the year came in the face of strong macro headwinds, including a 450-basis point increase in short-term interest rates prompted by the Federal Reserve Bank’s efforts to stem inflation. This rapid rate increase had an adverse effect on revenue at our mortgage-banking and Wealth Management 2 Jeffrey G. Ludwig President and Chief Executive Officer Midland States Bancorp, Inc.

Financial Results Net income available to common shareholders was $95.9 million, or $4.23 per fully diluted share in 2022 compared to net income of $81.3 million, or $3.57 per fully diluted share in 2021. Net income benefitted from a $17.5 million gain on the termination of an interest rate swap, which was partially offset by $3.3 million of impairment of commercial servicing rights held for sale and a $4.3 million OREO impairment. Our adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision earnings increased by 14.2% on a year-over-year basis, to $137.5 million as compared to $120.4 million for 2021. 2022 also represented the 22nd consecutive year we increased our common dividend. When taking the share repurchases and common share dividends paid in 2022 together, we distributed $27.0 million to our common shareholders. Tangible book value per share at December 31, 2022 was $20.94, a 3.3% decrease from $21.66 a share in 2021. Tangible book value per share was negatively impacted by a significant decrease in the fair value of our securities portfolio. This resulted principally from unrealized losses on investment securities, which losses we do not expect to actually realize. Total loans increased by $1.08 billion or 20.7%, to $6.31 billion. Total deposits, which include servicing deposits and wholesale deposits, increased by $254.0 million, or 4.2%, to $6.36 billion.

In 2022, our efficiency ratio declined to 55.4% from 57.1% in 2021, representing very strong year-over-year improvement. Given that our efficiency ratio was 66.1% in 2018, this represents a four-year improvement of 1,070 basis points. $0.40 $0.20 $0.00 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 Our Business Units Community Banking. Loans in our Community Banking business increased to approximately $4.0 billion, an increase of $747.3 million or 22.6% over 2021. Included in the loan activity during the year was the payoff of $50.6 million of PPP loans and a decrease in our commercial FHA warehouse lending activity of $66.9 million. Excluding these two products, loans increased $864.8 million or 26.1% during 2022. Core deposits grew to $4.8 billion, an increase of 5.5% year-over-year. While our consumer program has largely been through our longstanding relationship with GreenSky, we are now seeking to diversify our consumer portfolio, partly as a result of GreenSky having been acquired by Goldman Sachs in the second quarter of 2022. In January 2023 we informed GreenSky that we do not intend to originate new loans through their program starting later this year. Our intention is to engage with other loan originating fintechs that have solidified their business models and compliance regimes over the past years and can meet our requirements in those areas. Also, while we will stop originating additional GreenSky loans later Efficiency Ratio 70.0% 67.5% 66.08% 65.0% 62.5% 60.0% 57.5% 55.0% 52.5% 50.0% 61.53% 59.42% 57.05% 55.35% 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 Efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure.

Total Gross Loans ($ in Millions) On a broader basis, we also expect to develop a robust “banking as a service” business, which is commonly referred to as “BaaS.” BaaS generally involves banks providing services they already perform for their own operations to one or more outside clients. This can range from funding consumer and/or commercial loan originations, as we have done with GreenSky for more than ten years; to servicing loans, as we have done for FHA lenders for several years; to holding deposits generated by non-bank financial service companies; to providing payment services and other financial services these clients need but for regulatory purposes cannot, or do not want to, do for themselves. $7,000 $6,000 $5,000 $4,000 $3,000 $2,000 $1,000 $0 $6,306 $5,103 $5,225 $4,138 $4,401 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 Trust Assets Under Administration ($ in Millions) $5,000 $4,000 $3,000 $2,000 $1,000 $0 $4,100 $3,410 $3,481 $3,505 $2,945 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 Over the past couple of years, we have begun fostering relationships across the BaaS ecosystem, added a BaaS technology platform through a leading provider, and held discussions with a number of potential partners. However, as a result of our determination to employ strong caution and compliance requirements with respect to any new partnerships, we have not yet signed any new BaaS agreements. Still, I believe BaaS offers new revenue opportunities for us and I look forward to sharing additional information about this in the future. Wealth Management. Increasing interest rates as a result of the Federal Reserve Bank actions in 2022 had a negative impact on the stock markets and our assets under administration and revenues. Overall, Wealth Management’s assets under administration declined $594.1 million, or 14.5% to $3.51 billion by the end of 2022, from year-end 2021. Wealth Management revenue declined 4.1% to $25.7 million, compared to 2021. However, this is a case where numbers do not tell the whole story. We have made significant progress in building a more vibrant and customer-centric wealth group, including at the leadership level. In June of 2022 Jayne Hladio, a seasoned wealth business executive, joined us as President of our Wealth Group. Jayne is a proven leader who has built successful customer-centric wealth management businesses. Jayne and her team have made great progress in upgrading and revitalizing our team, technology and business processes for our Wealth clients. Equipment Finance. Our equipment finance business continues to grow markedly, even as the pandemic caused great stress to many of its customers. Our equipment finance portfolio stood at $1.11 billion at the end of 2022, as compared to $945.3 million at year-end 2021, representing an increase of 17.3%. Our equipment finance business has benefitted greatly from the strength of its management and the very cohesive team that operates this business for us. This is evident not only in its growth but also in its charge-off rates, which are consistently well below peer, based on the data provided by the Equipment Leasing and Finance Association. 4 Jayne Hladio, MBA President Midland Wealth Management Outlook I continue to believe we are well positioned for the future. Our customer- facing teams are doing great work and remain highly motivated to provide excellent customer service. The same is true for our operations people. Although I have concerns about the ability of community banks to attract deposits and maintain a healthy net interest margin if the velocity of interest rate increases does not abate, I view that more as a short-medium term headwind that we cannot control. As such, we will continue our focus on the things we can control, such as managing expenses, credit quality and providing an excellent customer experience. I remain confident that these will serve us well in 2023 and beyond. As always, we thank you for your continued support. Jeffrey G.

Tangible common equity, tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio and tangible book value per share are non-GAAP measures generally used by financial analysts and investment bankers to evaluate capital adequacy. We calculate: (i) tangible common equity as total shareholders’ equity less preferred equity, goodwill and other intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights); (ii) tangible assets as total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets; and (iii) tangible book value per share as tangible common equity divided by shares of common stock outstanding. Our management, banking regulators, many financial analysts and other investors use these measures in conjunction with more traditional bank capital ratios to compare the capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts of preferred equity and/or goodwill or other intangible assets, which typically stem from the use of the purchase accounting method of accounting for mergers and acquisitions. Tangible common equity, tangible assets, tangible book value per share and related measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for total shareholders’ equity, total assets, book value per share or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which we calculate tangible common equity, tangible assets, tangible book value per share and any other related measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.

Management measures return on average tangible common equity to assess the Company’s capital strength and business performance. Tangible equity excludes preferred equity, goodwill and other intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights), and is reviewed by banking and financial institution regulators when assessing a financial institution’s capital adequacy. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.
