FOCUSED ON SERVING OUR CLIENTS
A Message from the Chair and Vice Chair of the Board

As we turn the 
page to 2021, 
we’re optimistic 
and confident 
about the 
opportunities 
ahead.

Pat Baird,
Chair of the Board

Marie Zelnio-Ziegler,
Vice Chair of the Board

On  behalf  of  the  entire  Board  of  Directors,  we  are  pleased  and  proud  to 
bring you this year’s Annual Report.

As we reflect on 2020, it’s difficult to describe the challenges we faced as in-
dividuals, families, businesses and even as a country. As we turn the page to 
2021, we’re optimistic and confident about the opportunities ahead while 
aware that many challenges continue.

A year ago, we were confident that 
QCR  Holdings’  companies  were 
well-positioned  to  support  our  cli-
ents,  communities,  employees  and 
shareholders  through  the  uncer-
tainty.    While  there  was  no  way  to 
predict  all  that  happened,  we  now 
know  we  were  indeed  prepared  to 
successfully  serve  all  of  our  stake-
holders.  With  record  earnings  and 
improving  operating  metrics,  our 
organization  adapted  and  thrived 
while serving our clients’ best inter-
ests and the markets we serve.

We  are  all  hopeful  that  we  will  see 
ongoing  recovery  in  all  areas  over 
the course of the year, and no doubt 
new  issues  will  arise,  as  well.  Our 
organization  will  continue  to  adapt 
and  be  part  of  the  solution  for  all 
stakeholders. We have a great man-
agement team in place and a strong 
financial position to take us there.

Thank you for being 
our shareholders, and 
please stay safe.

RELATIONSHIPS MATTER
A message from the CEO and President

The year 2020 presented challenges no one could have predicted. While there 
were often more questions than answers, the impacts to our families, clients, busi-
nesses and communities were deeply personal. Through it all, there seemed to be 
one universal truth: Relationships Matter. 

From learning how to adapt our business during 
a pandemic, to helping new and existing clients 
secure  business-saving  Paycheck  Protection 
Program (PPP) loans, our team came together to 
support each other and our clients in a way that 
was truly inspiring.

Because  of  our  long-standing  emphasis  on 
building  relationships,  we  exceeded  our  goals, 
gained  hundreds  of  new  clients,  and  reported 
another  record  year.  Our  record  net  income 
results,  driven  by  continued  strong  growth  in 
loans,  deposits  and  fee  income,  were  accom-
plished while also significantly building our re-
serves for future loan losses.

There are likely still challenges ahead. However, 
we  start  the  year  with  exceptional  credit  qual-
ity  and  a  strong  capital  position.  We  remain 
focused  on  simple  growth  strategies  across  all 
of our bank charters and our leasing company, 
providing  best  in  class  service  through  opera-
tional excellence and helping our clients make 
their financial dreams come true.

“…There seemed to be one universal 
truth: Relationships Matter.” 

We’re genuinely excited by what’s ahead in 2021 
and beyond and we will continue to work hard 
each day to drive long-term shareholder value.

QCR Holdings, Inc.OUR FUTURE:
A SIMPLE AND 
FOCUSED 
STRATEGY

OUR PERFORMANCE IN 
2020 GAVE US INCREDIBLE 
MOMENTUM ENTERING 
THE NEW YEAR. 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.

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

We intend to continue to gain market share across our charters 
by capitalizing on the value that our clients place on relation-
ship-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.

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.

Improve efficiencies and hold expense growth 

to 5% per year

We will increase our 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
Another Record-Breaking Year

2020  was  a  year  like  no  other  given  the 
challenges  presented  by  the  COVID-19 
pandemic.

The entire QCR Holdings team adjusted to 
the  new  environment,  helped  our  clients 
manage the impact of the crisis and con-
tinued to identify and capitalize on growth 
opportunities,  enabling  us  to  deliver  an-
other year of record earnings.

Our strong financial results were driven by 
robust  revenue  growth,  including  record 
fee income, and solid organic loan growth 
that helped boost our net interest income. 

2020 PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS

•  Adjusted net income increased 8%

• 

Tangible book value per share grew by 14%

•  After adjusting for non-core items, revenue 
grew by 25%, driven by record swap fee 
income and higher net interest income

• 

• 

• 

• 

Loans grew by nearly 8%, driven by healthy 
demand from new and existing clients

Core deposits grew by 22% for the year and 
25% of total deposits are now noninterest-
bearing

Continued to gain market share across our 
charters, reflecting the value that our clients 
place on relationship-based community 
banking

Protected our net interest margin over 
the course of the year as we significantly 
reduced our high-cost wholesale funding 
and capitalized on favorable deposit 
repricing opportunities

•  Our credit quality remains excellent 
with net charge-offs near zero and 
nonperforming assets now represent only 
0.26% of total assets

QCR Holdings, Inc.RESPONDING TO OUR CLIENTS’ NEEDS
Paycheck Protection Program and QCRH Loan Relief Program

7

At the early onset of the pandemic, we recognized the importance of 
quickly responding to the needs of our clients and communities. We 
proactively launched our Loan Relief Program, allowing clients to de-
fer payments and preserve cash and liquidity.

More than 1,900 clients received 
deferrals, totaling over $575 million 
of loans and leases. Nearly all of our 
borrowers who received payment 
relief resumed payments well before 
the year ended. At year-end, we had 
only $28 million of loans remaining 
on deferral, or 0.66% of the total 
portfolio. We believe this speaks to 
the high quality of our loan port-
folio and the resiliency of our local 
markets, which continue to exhibit 
improving economic activity.

With the introduction of the SBA 
Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), 
our lending teams originated 1,700 
PPP loans totaling $358 million, 
which included the acquisition of 
more than 300 new, highly desired 
clients. This program effectively 
provided much-needed capital and 
liquidity to commercial and non-
profit clients. Due to our philosophy 
of putting clients first coupled with 
our agile business model, QCRH was 
able to respond to clients’ needs 
more quickly than larger institutions 
in our markets.
