Landmark Bancorp Inc
Business Description
Landmark Bancorp, Inc. is a bank holding company which was incorporated under
the laws of the State of Delaware in 2001. Currently, the Company’s business
consists solely of the ownership of Landmark National Bank (the “Bank”),
which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
The Company is headquartered in Manhattan, Kansas and has expanded its geographic
presence through past acquisitions. Effective November 1, 2013, the Company completed
the acquisition of Citizens Bank, National Association (“Citizens Bank”).
Effective April 1, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of The Wellsville
Bank. In May 2009, the Company acquired an additional branch in Lawrence, Kansas.
The Company completed several other mergers and acquisitions prior to 2009.
The Bank has continued to focus on increasing its originations of commercial,
commercial real estate and agricultural loans, which management believes will
be more profitable and provide more growth for the Bank than traditional one-to-four
family residential real estate lending. While the Bank has grown these portfolios,
generally weak loan demand over the past few years as the economy has recovered
has made it difficult to have meaningful growth while maintaining high credit
standards. Additionally, greater emphasis has been placed on diversification of
the deposit mix through expansion of core deposit accounts such as checking, savings,
and money market accounts. The Bank has also diversified its geographical markets
as a result of its acquisitions. The Company’s main office is in Manhattan,
Kansas. The Company has 29 branch offices in 23 communities across the state of
Kansas. The Company continues to explore opportunities to expand its banking markets
through mergers and acquisitions, as well as branching opportunities.
