Heartland BancCorp Announces Completion of $25 Million Subordinated Notes Offering

WHITEHALL, Ohio, May 15, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Heartland BancCorp (“the Company” or “Heartland”) (OTCQX: HLAN) today announced the completion of its private placement of $25 million of 5.0% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due 2030 (the “Notes”) to certain qualified institutional buyers and accredited investors, including the exchange of approximately $5.4 million of the Company’s subordinated promissory notes due 2025. The Notes will initially bear interest at a fixed annual rate of 5.0%, payable semiannually in arrears, to, but excluding, June 15, 2025, and will reset quarterly thereafter to the then current three-month SOFR plus a spread of 490.0 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears, commencing September 15, 2025.

Heartland intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes, including repaying indebtedness, to support organic growth and to fund potential acquisitions.
“This successful capital raise gives us an opportunity to build out our business plan and is an affirmation of Heartland’s tremendous opportunities in our market,” stated G. Scott McComb, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Through the issuance of these Notes, we have cost effectively increased our capital levels without diluting our current shareholders.”D.A.
