Ames National CorporationATLOFinancials

Operates locally branded banks that collect deposits, make commercial, agricultural and residential loans, and add trust and wealth-management services. Business is concentrated in Iowa and reported as one banking segment, with earnings shaped mainly by loan spreads, credit quality and local deposit funding.

Operates a multi-bank community banking model through First National Bank, State Bank, Boone Bank, Reliance Bank, United Bank & Trust and Iowa State Savings Bank. The subsidiaries serve central, north-central and south-central Iowa with deposits, local lending, card and cash-management services, and wealth management.

Revenue is driven mainly by net interest income from local loans and deposits, supplemented by trust, payment and deposit-service fees. The loan book is oriented around commercial, agricultural and residential borrowers, while wealth management includes trusts, estate administration, farm management, investment and custody services.

The operating structure depends on local relationship banking, credit quality in Iowa markets, deposit funding, net interest spread management and FDIC and bank-regulatory compliance.
