DREAMS A REALITY

2019 ANNUAL REPORT

A MESSAGE FROM 
OUR CHAIRMAN

One of the most difficult challenges a company fac-
es throughout its existence is leadership transition. 
For a board, it is one of its most important respon-
sibilities and the succession process can create ten-
sion,  uncertainty,  and  be  downright  risky.  I’m  very 
pleased to report that we successfully transitioned 
your Company’s leadership in May of 2019. 

As you are aware, the shareholder performance and 
operating  metrics  of  QCR  Holdings,  Inc.  showed 
strong improvement throughout this transition pe-
riod and for all of 2019. I would like to express the 
Board’s appreciation to our past President and CEO 
Doug  Hultquist  for  giving  the  Board  plenty  of  ad-
vance notice and good advice throughout this pro-
cess. 

As important, I would like to say thanks to our new 
CEO  Larry  Helling  and  President  Todd  Gipple  for 
their tremendous leadership as they kept the com-
pany  moving  forward  in  all  areas  with  virtually  no 
disruption. 

The  Board  was  also  supportive  of  management’s 
difficult  decision  to  exit  the  Rockford  market.  For 
various  reasons,  it  was  not  possible  for  our  Rock-
ford bank charter to grow and achieve the operat-

ing performance enjoyed elsewhere in our group of 
companies. We look forward to carefully redeploy-
ing the proceeds in other growth opportunities.

Finally, I am writing this message to you a couple of 
weeks into the global COVID-19 situation.  As of this 
moment,  the  level  of  uncertainty  as  to  depth  and 
duration is very high. We believe our business mod-
el of putting customers first and local decision-mak-
ing  is  the  best  way  to  serve  customers  during  the 
uncertainty.  Our  organization  is  financially  strong, 
our  employees  are  strong,  and  you  may  not  hear 
this from other companies, but we believe our cus-
tomers are strong. We will work collaboratively with 
all of our stakeholders to see this thing through.

On behalf of the entire board, we thank you for be-
ing shareholders and please stay safe.  

PATRICK J. BAIRD
Chair of the Board

“…that’s the power 
of a company built 
on relationships.”

For QCR Holdings, Inc., 2019 was truly an incredible year. Not only did we achieve record net 
income, but we exceeded our financial targets in almost all areas of the business. Our strong 
results were driven by continued strong growth in loans, deposits and fee income along with 
exceptional credit quality. 

We believe that’s the power of a company built on relationships. When a team embraces a com-
mon mission, vision and values - our employees, customers, communities and shareholders win.

As we start 2020 with some uncertainties due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, we remain optimistic 
about our future. We believe our recent performance puts us in a great position to come out 
of a volatile environment with positive results. We are steadfast in our focus on simple growth 
strategies across all charters, providing best in class service through operational excellence and 
helping our clients make their financial dreams come true.

We’re truly excited by what’s ahead in 2020 and beyond.

QCR HOLDINGS, INC.A CLEAR 
MISSION, VISION, AND VALUES

Our Mission, Vision and Values serve 
as our North Star. It’s the definition 
of where we are headed and who we 
are as a company.

With  the  growth  of  our  business,  which 
included  several  acquisitions,  it  felt  like 
the right time to take a step back to eval-
uate our Mission, Vision and Values with a 
fresh perspective. The good news is that 
with some minor adjustments, our values 
still hold true with one distinct addition to 
the list – Inclusion.

We  added  “Inclusion”  because  we  be-
lieve  a  diverse,  equitable  and  inclusive 
culture  strengthens  our  ability  to  attract 
and retain the best people and makes us 
a better company. With this change and 
the adoption of our Diversity, Equity and 
Inclusion  policy,  our  goal  is  to  create  a 
place  where  our  people  feel  respected 
and valued every day.

It will help make us a stronger and better 
performing company long into the future, 
but it’s also the right thing to do.

OUR PERFORMANCE 
A RECORD BREAKING YEAR

For QCR Holdings, Inc., 2019 was our best year ever. Over the course of the 

year, we remained focused on our strategies and we were able to capitalize 

on  the  ongoing  economic  strength  and  healthy  business  conditions  across 

our footprint. Our strong financial performance was highlighted by record net 

income and a solid increase in adjusted earnings per share.

2019 PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS

•  Adjusted net income increased 26% 

•  Tangible book value per share grew by 17%

•  After adjusting for one-time items, revenue grew by 26%, driven by 

record swap fee income and higher net interest income 

•  Both loans and deposits grew organically, by over 10% for the year 

•  Continued to gain market share across our charters, evidence that 

our clients value relationship-based community banking 

•  Expanded our net interest margin during the second half of the year 

as our initiatives in this area gained traction

•  Our credit quality remains excellent with net charge-offs near zero 

and nonperforming assets declining again in 2019

QCR HOLDINGS, INC.ROCKFORD BANK & TRUST DIVESTITURE

Strategically, it was an important year for us as well. On November 30, 2019, we exited the Rockford, Illi-

nois market with the sale of Rockford Bank & Trust (RB&T). We were unable to reach acceptable levels of 

scale in that market and, consequently, experienced unsatisfactory levels of profitability. We recorded a 

$12.3 million gain on the sale pre-tax. 

Divesting of RB&T enables us to redeploy capital in our other more profitable markets to help drive con-

tinued organic and acquisitive growth. The transaction also bolstered our capital levels and we expect to 

meaningfully improve several of our key performance metrics going forward as a result of the sale.

*Comparison data excludes RB&T where noted.

OUR PEOPLE

CEDAR RAPIDS BANK & TRUST

Starting as a teller right out of college, Brittney immediately knew helping 
people was her passion. Today, she manages retail banking at five branches 
and leads a team of about 50 people. 

“I love retail and consumer banking because of the people,” she said. “I 
thrive from helping clients and employees reach their goals.” 

Early in her career, her desire to get involved in the community led her to 
start teaching financial literacy to people who had recently filed bankruptcy. 
She started with small, monthly presentations and 12 years later she’s given 
hundreds of presentations to more than 1,000 people in the area.

“It’s so important to know how to make the right decisions to create a stable 
and secure financial future, from the time you start making money,” she 
said. “Starting off creating financial goals is the key to financial success and I 
enjoy helping people start this process.”

Her new goal? Help her team develop their careers by learning to teach the 
courses, too!

When you grow up in Brandsville, Missouri (population 187), you know 
everyone in town. Maybe that’s why Joe was drawn to banking – it’s an 
industry where relationships matter.

“At the heart of it, you’re tuning in to the needs of the families and 
businesses you support,” said Joe. “And in a big ‘small town’ like 
Springfield, there are more than 40 different banks represented so your 
reputation is important.” 

After spending nearly a decade working for national and regional com-
mercial banks, Joe brought his skill set to SFC Bank in order to better the 
community. “I have a love and admiration for business and I enjoy learning 
the intimate inner-workings of different kinds of companies,” he said. “That 
knowledge helps me to continuously refine my approach in how I seek 
business and grow my portfolio. The entrepreneurial nature of my job is 
something I am very fond of.”

Jean is certainly not afraid to try new things – like the time her hus-
band surprised her with a kayak for Mother’s Day 15 years ago. “I 
thought, ‘what am I going to do with that?’” she said. “And now it’s 
one of my favorite hobbies.”

When she joined m2 Lease Funds 12 years ago, she found herself 
again, venturing into new territory. “I didn’t know equipment leasing 
was a thing,” she explained. “Now, I help the team put together loans 
and leases for everything from phone systems to large construction 
vehicles.”

Helping businesses of all sizes is very rewarding but the thing she 
enjoys most is the people and the culture. “It’s a great place to work. 
We all work together toward the same goal, and that’s easy when you 
really like the people you work with,” she said.

At QCBT, the correspondent banking strategy is a bit of an enigma in 
the banking world. “We offer the same services as any of our charters, 
but our customers are financial institutions so we operate like a small 
bank within QCBT,” explained Kate. “We help our customers be success-
ful in their business but we also have the advantage of understanding 
their customers’ needs, which is a unique value for them.” 

With degrees in English and Fashion Journalism, banking was not her 
planned career path, and yet it’s truly been a perfect fit.

“I’m driven by stories and people. I want to learn as much as I can about 
my clients, so it’s not unusual to know about their grandkids or vacation 
plans. That’s important when you’re building relationships,” she said. 
“It feels great to know we’re making financial dreams a reality for these 
smaller banks as well as their customers. Having that kind of impact on 
people’s lives is rewarding.”

COMMUNITY BANK & TRUST

From the moment you meet Tina, you feel the positive energy and passion 
she has for her work. 

As a branch manager and real estate lender, she oversees all real estate 
lending for the Cedar Valley. And she’s good at it. In 2018 she closed $1 
million in home mortgage loans and in 2019 that number jumped to a 
record $4.3 million. 

“What I love most is helping customers get into a new home,” she said. 
“It’s exciting when the realtor hands over the keys to homeowners at the 
closing. I also feel honored that they’ve trusted me to help them with such 
an important purchase in their lives.” 

Tina said that helping people – of all income levels – get into a new home 
never gets old, “It doesn’t feel like work because I love what I do.”

COMMUNITY STATE BANK

As an operations assistant, Steven supports everything from deposit 
operations to procedure updates. “I enjoy the variety. I never get bored,” 
said Steven. 

Recently, Steven took a step outside of his regular job to help a customer 
who didn’t speak much English. “He had just lost a family member and 
needed to convert an account to the family estate to help pay for funeral 
expenses, but the language barrier was causing frustration during what was 
already a difficult time,” he said. Being fluent in Spanish, Steven was able 
to explain the process and information required. “At his request, I also con-
tacted his attorney who was handling the estate and we were able to get it 
worked out for the family,” he said.

Steven said helping others is one of the most rewarding parts of his job, but 
it’s also a part of the culture. “Working at CSB is such an easy and friendly 
environment and everyone knows your name. I really like that.”

OUR FUTURE
A SIMPLE AND FOCUSED STRATEGY

9 - Grow loans by 9% per year, funded with core deposits

We  intend  to  continue  to  gain  market  share  across  our  char-

ters by capitalizing on the value that our clients place on rela-

tionship-based community banking. Our goal is to organically 

grow loans and leases by 9% per year and to fund this growth 

with a corresponding increase in our core deposits.

6 - Grow fee income no less than 6% per year

We will continue our efforts to diversify our revenue mix and 

develop more opportunities to increase profitability with con-

tinued  gains  in  noninterest  income.  Our  goal  is  to  grow  our 

fee-based income by at least 6% per year.

5 - Improve efficiencies and hold expense growth to 5%

We  will  increase  focus  on  improving  operational  efficiencies 

and managing our noninterest expenses. Our goal is to limit our 

annual operating expense growth to no more than 5% per year.

Our performance in 

2019 gave us incredible 

momentum entering into 

the new year.

In 2020, we’ve set a 

simple and focused 

strategy for our 

future. 9-6-5 is our 

plan to continue to 

grow earnings and 

drive attractive long-

term returns for our 

shareholders.
