About HBT Financial,

From its filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission

SEC filings

HBT Financial, is based in Bloomington, Illinois and is incorporated in Delaware. Its shares trade on Nasdaq under the ticker HBT. The SEC classifies its business as state commercial banks. In the fiscal year to 31 December 2025, it reported net income of $77.0m. At that date it held total assets of $5.07bn and shareholders' equity of $615.5m.

In its own words

The roots of our Company can be traced back to 1920 when M.B. Drake, the grandfather of our Executive Chairman, Fred Drake, helped found a community bank in Cornland, Illinois. The Drake family went on to operate several banks throughout central Illinois, and in 1982, George Drake (M.B.'s son and Fred's father) incorporated the Company as one of the first multi-bank holding companies in Illinois. Since that time, we have grown both organically and through the successful integration of more than a dozen community bank acquisitions.

On March 1, 2026, HBT Financial completed its acquisition of CNB, the holding company for CNB Bank & Trust, N.A. (“CNB Bank”). The combined company will have increased density in the central Illinois, Chicago MSA, and St. Louis MSA markets. Prior to the acquisition, CNB operated 18 full-service branch locations which now operate as branches of Heartland Bank. The core system conversion is expected to occur in March 2026.

As of December 31, 2025, CNB had total assets of $1.8 billion, total loans of $1.3 billion, and total deposits of $1.5 billion. This acquisition is a subsequent event and the financial results of CNB are not recognized in this Form 10-K.
