NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles. The consolidated financial statements and the footnotes of First Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. ("First Guaranty") thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and note disclosures for First Guaranty previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in First Guaranty's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary First Guaranty Bank (the "Bank"). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Those adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations at June 30, 2026 and for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or any other interim period. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near-term relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses, the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans, the valuation of the deferred tax asset, and the valuation of investment securities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Standards Adopted in 2026
None.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures" (ASU 2024-03") requires the disaggregation of certain expenses in the notes to the financial statements, to provide enhanced transparency into the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this ASU may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. First Guaranty is currently evaluating the impact that this update will have on its disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2025-08, "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans" (ASU 2025-08") amendments expand the application of the gross‑up approach to certain acquired loans, referred to as “purchased seasoned loans,” which will be recorded at purchase price plus an allowance for expected credit losses at acquisition rather than through a provision for credit losses. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and is to be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted. First Guaranty is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

The scheduled maturities of securities at June 30, 2026, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities due to calls or prepayments. Mortgage-backed securities are not due at a single maturity because of amortization and potential prepayment of the underlying mortgages. For this reason, they are presented separately in the maturity table below:

117
securities had an aggregate amortized cost basis of $

Securities are evaluated for impairment from credit losses at least quarterly and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (i) the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (iii) the recovery of contractual principal and interest and (iv) the intent and ability of First Guaranty to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
Investment securities issued by the U.S. Government and Government sponsored enterprises with unrealized losses and the amount of unrealized losses on those investment securities that are the result of changes in market interest rates will not be credit impaired. First Guaranty has the ability and intent to hold these securities until recovery, which may not be until maturity.
Corporate debt securities in a loss position consist primarily of corporate bonds issued by businesses in the financial, insurance, utility, manufacturing, industrial, consumer products and oil and gas industries. There were
no
held to maturity corporate securities with a credit related impairment loss as of June 30, 2026. First Guaranty believes that the remaining issuers will be able to fulfill the obligations of these securities based on evaluations described above. First Guaranty has the ability and intent to hold these securities until they recover, which could be at their maturity dates.
There were
no
charge-offs recognized on securities during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. There were
no
provisions for credit losses recognized on securities during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
For securities that have indications of credit related impairment, management analyzes future expected cash flows to determine if any credit related impairment is evident. Estimated cash flows are determined using management's best estimate of future cash flows based on specific assumptions. The assumptions used to determine the cash flows were based on estimates of loss severity and credit default probabilities. Management reviews reports from credit rating agencies and public filings of issuers.
At June 30, 2026, First Guaranty's exposure to bond issuers that exceeded 10% of shareholders' equity is below:

91.8
million of loans individually evaluated for impairment as of December 31, 2025 were considered collateral dependent loans.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, First Guaranty had loans totaling $
40.6
million and $
59.6
million, respectively, not accruing interest. First Guaranty had
no
loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest as of June 30, 2026 as compared to $
0.8
million as of December 31, 2025. The average outstanding balance of nonaccrual loans for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $
55.4
million compared to $
114.6
million for the year ended December 31, 2025.
-23-
The Bank held loans that were individually evaluated for impairment at June 30, 2026 for which the repayment, on the basis of the assessment at the reporting date, is expected to be provided substantially though the operation or sale of the collateral and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The Allowance for Credit Losses for these collateral-dependent loans is primarily based on the fair value of the underlying collateral at the reporting date. The following describes the type of collateral that secure collateral dependent loans:
•
Residential real estate loans are primarily secured by first liens on residential real estate.
•
Commercial real estate loans are primarily secured by office and industrial buildings, warehouses, retail shopping facilities and various special purpose properties, including hotels and restaurants.
•
Construction and land loans are primarily secured by residential and commercial properties, which are under construction and/or redevelopment, and by raw land.
•
Commercial loans are primarily secured by accounts receivable, inventory and equipment.
•
Agriculture loans are primarily secured by farmland and equipment.
Loan Modifications Made to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
Occasionally, the Bank modifies loans to borrowers in financial distress by providing certain concessions, such as principal forgiveness, term extension, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, interest only for a specified period of time, an interest rate reduction, or a combination of such concessions. When principal forgiveness is provided, the amount of forgiveness is charged-off against the allowance for credit losses. Upon the Bank’s determination that a modified loan (or portion of a loan) has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan (or portion of the loan) is charged-off.
The Bank did not execute any new reportable modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty (MEFD) during the six months ended June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, loans that had been previously modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty consisted of $
13.1
million of term extensions, $
11.8
million of loan term modifications, and $
0.4
million of payment delays. The Bank had
no
unfunded commitments to borrowers whose terms have been modified as a reportable MEFD as of June 30, 2026.
As of June 30, 2026, there have been
no
loans that were modified within the previous 12 months for which there has been payment default during the period.

Note 6.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized but are evaluated for impairment. First Guaranty performs impairment testing when events or changes in circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. As a result of prior impairment testing,
no
goodwill remains on the balance sheet.
During 2025, First Guaranty performed a quantitative impairment test as of September 30, 2025, using a combination of market and income approaches, including the guideline public company method, guideline precedent transaction method, and discounted cash flow analysis. The test was triggered by First Guaranty's stock price trading below book value and the recent increase in credit provisions. Based on the results of the test, First Guaranty concluded the goodwill of $
12.9
million was impaired and recorded a one-time non-cash impairment charge during 2025.
No
goodwill impairment charges were recorded in periods prior to 2025.
Other intangible assets continue to be amortized over their useful lives. Loan servicing assets totaled $
0.2
million at June 30, 2026 and $
0.3
million at December 31, 2025. Other intangible assets recorded include core deposit intangibles, which are subject to amortization. The weighted-average amortization period remaining for First Guaranty's core deposit intangibles is
2.8
years at June 30, 2026. The core deposits intangible reflect the value of deposit relationships, including the beneficial rates, which arose from acquisitions.

Note 9.
Commitments and Contingencies
Off-balance sheet commitments
First Guaranty is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby and commercial letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of the involvement in particular classes of financial instruments.
The exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby and commercial letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The same credit policies are used in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for balance sheet instruments. Unless otherwise noted, collateral or other security is not required to support financial instruments with credit risk.
Below is a summary of the notional amounts of the financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

Allowance For Credit Losses - Off- Balance-Sheet Credit Exposures
The provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments was $

0.5
million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The ACL on off-balance-sheet credit exposures totaled $
0.7
million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and is included in other liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Litigation
First Guaranty is subject to various legal proceedings in the normal course of its business. First Guaranty assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal proceedings. Where it is probable that First Guaranty will incur a loss and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, First Guaranty records a liability in its consolidated financial statements. First Guaranty does not record a loss if the loss is not probable or the amount of the loss is not estimable. First Guaranty Bank is a defendant in a lawsuit alleging fault for a loss of funds by a customer related to fraud by a third party with a possible loss range of $
0.0
million to $
1.5
million. The Bank denies the allegations and intends to vigorously defend against this lawsuit, which is in early stages and no trial date has been set.
No
accrued liability has been recorded related to this lawsuit. In the opinion of management, neither First Guaranty nor First Guaranty Bank is currently involved in such legal proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, that the resolution is expected to have a material adverse effect on First Guaranty’s consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. However, one or more unfavorable outcomes in these ordinary claims or litigation against First Guaranty or First Guaranty Bank could have a material adverse effect for the period in which they are resolved. In addition, regardless of their merits or ultimate outcomes, such matters are costly, divert management’s attention, and may materially and adversely affect the reputation of First Guaranty and First Guaranty Bank, even if resolved favorably.

Note 10.
Leases
First Guaranty’s primary leasing activities relate to certain real estate leases of certain branches, and certain ATM locations. These leases have all been designated as operating leases. First Guaranty does not lease equipment under operating leases, and does not have leases designated as financing leases.
On April 29, 2026, First Guaranty repurchased certain properties, previously sold in a sale-leaseback transaction in June of 2024, for an aggregate purchase price of $
14.8
million. Upon repurchase, the related lease agreements were terminated and no further lease payments are required. Lease expense associated with the sale‑leaseback arrangement totaled approximately $
0.3
million per quarter prior to termination. As a result of the repurchase, this lease expense relating to these properties was eliminated and partially offset by depreciation expense, which is expected to increase by approximately $
0.2
million per quarter.

Note 11.
Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of a financial instrument is the current amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. Valuation techniques use certain inputs to arrive at fair value. Inputs to valuation techniques are the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. They may be observable or unobservable. First Guaranty uses a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 Inputs
– Unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 Inputs
– Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds or credit risks) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 Inputs
– Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value follows, as well as the classification of such instruments within the valuation hierarchy.
Securities available for sale.
Securities are classified within Level 1 where quoted market prices are available in an active market. Inputs include securities that have quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. If quoted market prices are unavailable, fair value is estimated using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, at which point the securities would be classified within Level 2 of the hierarchy. Securities classified within Level 3 in First Guaranty's portfolio as of June 30, 2026 include corporate debt and municipal securities.
Loan individually evaluated for impairment.
Fair value is measured by either the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent (Level 2 or Level 3), or the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan's effective interest rate (Level 3). Fair value of the collateral is determined by appraisals or by independent valuation.
Other real estate owned.
Properties are recorded at the balance of the loan or at estimated fair value less estimated selling costs, whichever is less, at the date acquired. Fair values of other real estate owned ("OREO") are determined by sales agreement or appraisal, and costs to sell are based on estimation per the terms and conditions of the sales agreement or amounts commonly used in real estate transactions. Inputs include appraisal values or recent sales activity for similar assets in the property's market; thus, OREO measured at fair value would be classified within either Level 2 or Level 3 of the hierarchy. During 2025, First Guaranty transferred $
4.4
million of existing bank owned properties previously used as either operating branches or future branch development to other real estate owned. As of June 30, 2026, these properties had a carrying value of $
4.3
million, and were held for sale. The properties are included in Level 3 as of June 30, 2026.
Certain non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis including assets and liabilities related to reporting units measured at fair value in the testing of goodwill impairment, as well as intangible assets and other non-financial long-lived assets measured at fair value for impairment assessment.
The following table summarizes financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value:

First Guaranty's valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While the methodologies used are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value.
The change in Level 1 securities available for sale from December 31, 2025 to June 30, 2026 was due to a net decrease in Treasury bills of $
48.6
million. There were no transfers between Level 2 and Level 3 from December 31, 2025 to June 30, 2026. There were no transfers between Level 1 and 2 securities available for sale from December 31, 2025 to June 30, 2026.

ASC 825-10 provides First Guaranty with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The fair value option established by this statement permits First Guaranty to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates and report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each reporting date subsequent to implementation.
First Guaranty has chosen not to elect the fair value option for any items that are not already required to be measured at fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
-29-
Note 12.
Financial Instruments
Fair value estimates are generally subjective in nature and are dependent upon a number of significant assumptions associated with each instrument or group of similar instruments, including estimates of discount rates, risks associated with specific financial instruments, estimates of future cash flows and relevant available market information. Fair value information is intended to represent an estimate of an amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between a willing buyer and seller engaging in an exchange transaction. However, since there are no established trading markets for a significant portion of First Guaranty's financial instruments, First Guaranty may not be able to immediately settle financial instruments; as such, the fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized through immediate settlement. In addition, the majority of the financial instruments, such as loans and deposits, are held to maturity and are realized or paid according to the contractual agreement with the customer.
Quoted market prices are used to estimate fair values when available. However, due to the nature of the financial instruments, in many instances quoted market prices are not available. Accordingly, estimated fair values have been estimated based on other valuation techniques, such as discounting estimated future cash flows using a rate commensurate with the risks involved or other acceptable methods. Fair values are estimated without regard to any premium or discount that may result from concentrations of ownership of financial instruments, possible income tax ramifications or estimated transaction costs. The fair value estimates are subjective in nature and involve matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Fair values are also estimated at a specific point in time and are based on interest rates and other assumptions at that date. As events change the assumptions underlying these estimates, the fair values of financial instruments will change.
Disclosure of fair values is not required for certain items such as lease financing, investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting, obligations of pension and other postretirement benefits, premises and equipment, other real estate, prepaid expenses, the value of long-term relationships with depositors (core deposit intangibles) and other customer relationships, other intangible assets and income tax assets and liabilities. Fair value estimates are presented for existing on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses have not been considered in the estimates. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not purport to represent and should not be considered representative of the underlying market or franchise value of First Guaranty.
Because the standard permits many alternative calculation techniques and because numerous assumptions have been used to estimate the fair values, reasonable comparison of the fair value information with other financial institutions' fair value information cannot necessarily be made. The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair values of financial instruments are as follows:
Cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks, federal funds sold and federal funds purchased.
These items are generally short-term and the carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets are a reasonable estimation of the fair values. Cash and due from bank for the purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows include cash on hand, balances due from banks: which includes non-interest and interest-bearing accounts, and federal funds sold, all of which mature within ninety days.
Investment Securities.
Fair values are principally based on quoted market prices. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments or the use of discounted cash flow analyses.
Loans Held for Sale.
Fair values of mortgage loans held for sale are based on commitments on hand from investors or prevailing market prices. These loans are classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Loans, net.
Market values are computed present values using net present value formulas. The present value is the sum of the present value of all projected cash flows on an item at a specified discount rate. The discount rate is set as an appropriate rate index, plus or minus an appropriate spread. These loans are classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Loan individually evaluated for impairment.
Fair value is measured by either the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent (Level 2 or Level 3), or the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan's effective interest rate (Level 3). Fair value of the collateral is determined by appraisals or by independent valuation.
Accrued interest receivable.
The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value.
Deposits.
The fair value of customer deposits, excluding certificates of deposit, is the amount payable on demand. Market values of certificates of deposit are actually computed present values using net present value formulas. The present value is the sum of the present value of all projected cash flows on an item at a
-30-
specified discount rate. The discount rate is set as an appropriate rate index, plus or minus an appropriate spread. Deposits are classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Accrued interest payable.
The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.
Borrowings.
The carrying amount of federal funds purchased and other short-term borrowings approximate their fair values. The fair value of First Guaranty's long-term borrowings is computed using net present value formulas. The present value is the sum of the present value of all projected cash flows on an item at a specified discount rate. The discount rate is set as an appropriate rate index, plus or minus an appropriate spread. Borrowings are classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Subsequent Events
On July 31, 2026, First Guaranty Bank completed the sale of the Bank's Texas operations, consisting of
five
branches and related deposits, loans and certain other assets, to Armstrong Bank, Muskogee, Oklahoma. The transaction is expected to consist of approximately $
234
million in deposits and $

As disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 7, 2026, the Bank has consented to the issuance of a Consent Order (the “Consent Order”) with the FDIC and the Louisiana Office of Financial Institutions (the “OFI”), which became effective as of August 7, 2026 (the “Effective Date”). The Bank consented to the issuance of the Consent Order without admitting or denying any charges of unsafe or unsound banking practices or violations of law. The Consent Order primarily resulted from the September 2, 2025, joint examination of the Bank conducted by the FDIC and OFI (the “2025 Exam”). In the period between that 2025 Exam and the issuance of the Consent Order, the Bank’s board of directors (the “Bank Board”) and management have taken a number of steps to address the issues identified in the Consent Order. A copy of the Consent Order is attached as an exhibit to this report, and the description of the contents of the Consent Order in this report is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Consent Order, which is incorporated herein by reference.
The Consent Order requires the Bank to undertake a number of actions and comply with certain restrictions relating primarily to board oversight, capital maintenance, classified assets, credit administration, commercial real estate (CRE) concentrations and monitoring, and dividends. These provisions are summarized in more detail below:
•
The Bank Board must monitor and confirm the completion of actions taken by management to comply with the Consent Order and ensure that the Bank has sufficient policies, personnel, resources, and systems to implement and adhere to the Consent Order.
•
The Bank must maintain a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio equal to or greater than
9
% and a total risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than

•
The Bank is restricted from extending additional credit to borrowers whose credit remains uncollected and was classified “doubtful” or “substandard” by the FDIC or OFI in the 2025 Exam, unless the Bank Board has signed a detailed written statement giving reasons why failure to extend such credit would be detrimental to the best interests of the Bank.
•
Within 120 days after the Effective Date, the Bank must, to the extent it has not previously done so, eliminate from its books, by charge-off or collection (excluding through the proceeds of any loan from the Bank), all assets or portions of assets classified “loss” and
50
% of the assets classified “doubtful” by the FDIC or OFI in the 2025 Exam.
•
Within 60 days after the Effective Date, the Bank must submit a written plan to the FDIC and OFI to reduce the remaining assets classified “doubtful” and “substandard” in the 2025 Exam, including specified information for each classified asset with a balance of $

Within 90 days after the Effective Date, the Bank Board must implement measures to correct the weaknesses regarding CRE stress testing identified in the 2025 Exam.
•
Within 90 days after the Effective Date, the Bank Board must implement measures to correct certain loan underwriting and credit administration weaknesses described in the 2025 Exam.
•
So long as the Consent Order is in effect, the Bank may not pay any dividend to First Guaranty without the prior written consent of the FDIC and OFI.
•
The Bank must furnish quarterly progress reports to the FDIC and OFI regarding compliance with the Consent Order.
The Consent Order will remain in effect until modified, terminated, suspended, or set aside by the FDIC and OFI.
Management and the Bank Board have been working to address the issues identified in the 2025 Exam, and will continue and expand these efforts to comply with the Consent Order. As of June 30, 2026, the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio was
7.09
% and its total risk-based capital ratio was
16.21
%.

Segment Reporting
First Guaranty is engaged in a single line of business as a financial institution, which provides a full range of banking, financial and trust services to state, county and local government entities and individuals and small and commercial businesses. First Guaranty has identified its President and Chief Executive Officer as the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who uses consolidated net income (see Consolidated Statements of Income) to determine how resources should be allocated and manage First Guaranty. First Guaranty’s operations constitute a single operating segment and therefore, a single reportable segment, because the CODM manages the business activities using information of First Guaranty as a whole. The accounting policies used to measure the profit and loss of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies described in Note 1 included in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. First Guaranty’s most significant reported source of income and expense are interest income and interest expense (see Consolidated Statements of Income).

Financial Condition
Changes in Financial Condition from December 31, 2025 to June 30, 2026
Assets
Total assets at June 30, 2026 were $3.9 billion, a decrease of $183.3 million from December 31, 2025. Assets decreased primarily due to a decrease in net loans of $298.1 million and cash and cash equivalents of $64.1 million partially offset by an increase in investment securities of $214.7 million at June 30, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025.
Loans
Net loans decreased $298.1 million, or 14.7%, to $1.7 billion at June 30, 2026 from December 31, 2025. First Guaranty adopted a change in its business plan in July 2024 that focused on reducing risk in the balance sheet, including risk associated with the loan portfolio. As part of this strategy, First Guaranty has reduced loan originations, charged-off loan balances and conducted select loan sales, which have each contributed to a decline in loan balances. Non-farm non-residential loan balances decreased $158.2 million due to paydowns on the existing portfolio. Multifamily loans decreased $58.5 million primarily due to paydowns. Construction and land development loans decreased $50.5 million principally due to the conversion of existing loans to permanent financing. Commercial lease loan balances decreased $19.0 million primarily due to paydowns on the existing lease portfolio and due to the charge-off of a remaining $5.7 million balance on one lease loan relationship. First Guaranty's commercial lease portfolio generally has higher yields than commercial real estate loans but shorter average lives. Consumer and other loans decreased $11.8 million primarily due to paydowns. Commercial and industrial loans decreased $6.1 million primarily due to the sale of loans, paydowns and charge-offs. One-to-four family residential loans decreased $8.4 million primarily due to charge-offs and paydowns. Farmland loans decreased $1.3 million primarily due to seasonal activity. Agricultural loans increased $7.6 million due to seasonal activity. First Guaranty had approximately 2.1% of funded and 1.9% of unfunded commitments in our loan portfolio to businesses engaged in support or service activities for oil and gas operations. First Guaranty's hotel and hospitality portfolio totaled $121.0 million at June 30, 2026. First Guaranty had $101.0 million in loans related to our Texas markets at June 30, 2026 compared to $192.6 million at December 31, 2025. As noted above, on July 31, 2026, the Bank completed the sale of its Texas operations, including approximately $88.4 million in Texas loans as of such date. First Guaranty had $341.4 million in loans related to our Mideast markets in Kentucky and West Virginia at June 30, 2026 compared to $323.1 million at December 31, 2025. Syndicated loans at June 30, 2026 were $51.4 million, of which $22.1 million were shared national credits. Syndicated loans increased $1.1 million from $50.3 million at December 31, 2025. Syndicated loans were subsequently reduced by $23.2 million by a loan payoff in the third quarter of 2026.
As of June 30, 2026, 80.6% of our loan portfolio was secured by real estate. The largest portion of our loan portfolio, at 44.7% as of June 30, 2026, was non-farm non-residential loans secured by real estate. Approximately 56.8% of the loan portfolio was based on a floating rate tied to the prime rate, Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), or Treasury rates as of June 30, 2026. This amount includes loans that convert to floating rates following an initial fixed rate period, which typically ranges from one, three, or five year periods. 36.6% of the loan portfolio is scheduled to mature within five years from June 30, 2026.
Commercial real estate (“CRE”) has received increased regulatory scrutiny in recent quarters due to valuation concerns associated with the increase in market interest rates and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. First Guaranty has utilized enhanced risk management practices for CRE concentration analysis for several years. First Guaranty Bank’s credit department conducts an annual stress test for CRE related loans that is presented to the Bank’s board of directors. The stress test analyzes the impact of changes in interest rates and cash flow on loan customers with credit exposures of $2.5 million or greater. First Guaranty generally requires personal guaranties on CRE loans. First Guaranty generally approves CRE loans with loan-to-values of 80% or less. First Guaranty also generally requires for construction related CRE loans that the borrower provides their equity contribution upfront before loan funds are advanced. First Guaranty modified its business strategy in 2024 to reduce exposure to commercial real estate related loans, particularly loans secured by non-owner occupied properties and construction loans for commercial real estate. First Guaranty continued this strategy in 2026.
First Guaranty has diversified its CRE portfolio across both industries and geographic location.

The decrease in classified assets at June 30, 2026 as compared to December 31, 2025 was due to a $70.9 million decrease in substandard loans and a $9.4 million decrease in doubtful loans. The decrease in substandard loans was primarily the result of the payoff of a $19.2 million non-farm non-residential loan relationship, a $15.1 million construction and land development loan relationship, a $14.5 million non-farm non-residential loan relationship, and a $14.3 million commercial loan relationship. The decrease in doubtful loans was driven by the sale of a $3.7 million commercial and industrial loan relationship. The Bank recorded as $1.8 million charge-off as the result of the sale. Special mention loans decreased by $142.9 million in 2026. The decrease in special mention loans was primarily the result of the upgrade of a $22.9 million multifamily loan and $15.9 million non-farm non-residential loan to pass status and the payoff of a $40.0 million multifamily loan and a $20.1 million non-farm non-residential loan relationship.

Net loans are reduced by the allowance for credit losses which totaled $34.3 million at June 30, 2026 and $40.8 million at December 31, 2025. Loan charge-offs were $13.2 million during the first six months of 2026 and $8.0 million during the same period in 2025. Recoveries totaled $1.5 million during the first six months of 2026 and $0.4 million during the same period in 2025. The provision for credit losses totaled $5.3 million for the first six months of 2026 and $31.2 million for the same period in 2025. See Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on loans and Note 5 for more information on the allowance for credit losses.

Investment Securities
Investment securities net of the allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2026 totaled $1.2 billion, an increase of $214.7 million compared to $999.3 million at December 31, 2025. The portfolio consists of both available for sale (AFS) and held to maturity securities (HTM). The securities designated as held to maturity are agency and corporate debt securities that are part of First Guaranty’s investment strategy and public funds collateralization program. We purchase securities for our investment portfolio to provide a source of liquidity, to provide an appropriate return on funds invested, to manage interest rate risk and meet pledging requirements for public funds and borrowings.
The securities portfolio consisted principally of U.S. Government and Government agency securities, agency mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs"), corporate debt securities and municipal bonds. U.S. government agencies consist of FHLB, FFCB, Freddie Mac and Federal National Mortgage Association ("Fannie Mae") obligations. Mortgage-backed securities that we purchase are issued by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. CMOs are also issued by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae and are structured to provide varying repayment profiles. Management monitors the securities portfolio for both credit and interest rate risk. We generally limit the purchase of corporate securities to individual issuers to manage concentration and credit risk. Corporate securities generally have a maturity of 10 years or less. U.S. Government securities consist of U.S. Treasury bills that have maturities of less than 30 days. Government agency securities generally have maturities of 15 years or less. Agency mortgage-backed securities have stated final maturities of 15 to 20 years, while CMOs generally have stated final maturities ranging from 15 to 30 years, although actual maturities may vary based on prepayment activity.
Our available for sale securities portfolio totaled $890.8 million at June 30, 2026, an increase of $214.2 million, or 31.7%, compared to $676.6 million at December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to the purchase of collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage-backed securities.
Our held to maturity securities portfolio net of the allowance for credit losses totaled $323.2 million at June 30, 2026, an increase of $0.5 million, or 0.2%, compared to $322.7 million at December 31, 2025. The increase in carrying value was primarily attributable to the continued accretion of the fair value discount that was recognized in amortized cost at the time the securities were designated as held to maturity in 2021.
At June 30, 2026, $50.7 million, or 4.2%, of the securities portfolio was scheduled to mature in less than one year. $75.5 million, or 6.2%, of the securities portfolio, not including collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage-backed securities, were scheduled to mature between one and five years. The majority of these securities were corporate bonds. $148.3 million, or 12.2%, of the securities portfolio, not including collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage-backed securities, were scheduled to mature between five and ten years. Securities, not including collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage-backed securities, with contractual maturity dates over 10 years totaled $118.4 million, or 9.8%, of the total securities portfolio at June 30, 2026. The average maturity of the securities portfolio is affected by call options that may be exercised by the issuer of the securities and are influenced by market interest rates. Prepayments of mortgages that collateralize mortgage-backed securities also affect the maturity of the securities portfolio. Based on internal forecasts as of June 30, 2026, management believes that the securities portfolio has a forecasted weighted average life of approximately 5.45 years based on the current interest rate environment. The portfolio had an estimated effective duration of 4.23 years at June 30, 2026.
There were no credit related impairment of available for sale securities during the six months ended June 30, 2026 or 2025. The allowance for credit losses for held to maturity securities was $0.2 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans and other real estate owned. Nonperforming loans are those on which the accrual of interest has stopped or loans which are contractually 90 days past due on which interest continues to accrue. Loans are ordinarily placed on nonaccrual status when principal and interest is delinquent for 90 days or more. However, management may elect to continue the accrual when the asset is well secured and in the process of collection. It is our policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on any loan for which we have reasonable doubt as to the payment of interest or principal. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income is reversed. Nonaccrual loans are returned to accrual status when the financial position of the borrower indicates there is no longer any reasonable doubt as to the payment of principal or interest and a reasonable payment performance period is observed (generally considered six months or longer). Other real estate owned consists of property acquired through formal foreclosure, in-substance foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure.

At June 30, 2026, nonperforming assets totaled $70.3 million, or 1.81% of total assets, compared to $95.5 million, or 2.34%, of total assets at December 31, 2025, which represented a decrease of $25.1 million, or 26.3%. The decrease in nonperforming assets occurred primarily due to a decrease in nonaccrual loans, other real estate, and in loans 90 days greater delinquent. Nonperforming loans included loans previously classified as purchase credit deteriorated following the adoption of CECL.
Nonaccrual loans decreased from $59.6 million at December 31, 2025 to $40.6 million at June 30, 2026. Nonaccrual loans included $3.6 million in loans with a government guarantee. These are structured as net loss guarantees in which up to 90% of loss exposure is covered.
At June 30, 2026, there were no loans 90 days or greater delinquent and still accruing, compared to $0.8 million at December 31, 2025.
Other real estate owned totaled $29.7 million at June 30, 2026, a decrease of $5.4 million compared to $35.1 million at December 31, 2025. Other real estate owned decreased primarily due to the sale of $7.4 million of other real estate owned comprised of a land development project in January 2026.

Allowance for Credit Losses
First Guaranty adopted FASB ASC Topic 326 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” Update No. 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2023. ASU 2016-13, referred to as the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) standard, requires financial assets measured on an amortized cost basis, including loans and held-to-maturity debt securities, to be presented at an amount net of an allowance for credit losses, which reflects expected losses for the full life of the financial asset. Unfunded lending commitments are also within the scope of this topic. Under prior GAAP losses were not recognized until the occurrence of the loss was probable.
The allowance for credit losses on loans is maintained to absorb potential losses in the loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses, offset by recoveries of previously charged-off loans and is decreased by loan charge-offs. The provision is a charge to current expense to provide for current expected loan losses and to maintain the allowance commensurate with management's evaluation of the risks inherent in the loan portfolio. Various factors are taken into consideration when determining the amount of the provision and the adequacy of the allowance. These factors include but are not limited to:
•
past due and nonperforming assets;
•
specific internal analysis of loans requiring special attention;
•
the current level of regulatory classified and criticized assets and the associated risk factors with each;
•
changes in underwriting standards or lending procedures and policies;
•
charge-off and recovery practices;
•
national and local economic and business conditions;
•
nature and volume of loans;
•
overall portfolio quality;
•
adequacy of loan collateral;
•
quality of loan review system and degree of oversight by our board of directors;
•
competition and legal and regulatory requirements on borrowers;
•
examinations of the loan portfolio by federal and state regulatory agencies and examinations; and
•
review by our internal loan review department and independent accountants.
The data collected from all sources in determining the adequacy of the allowance is evaluated on a regular basis by management with regard to current national and local economic trends, prior loss history, underlying collateral values, credit concentrations and industry risks. An estimate of potential loss on specific loans is developed in conjunction with an overall risk evaluation of the total loan portfolio. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as new information becomes available.
The allowance consists of specific, general, and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as doubtful, substandard, or collateral dependent. For such loans that are also classified as collateral dependent, an allowance is established when the collateral value is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and special mention loans and is based on historical loss experience for the past three years adjusted for qualitative factors described above. An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect the estimate of probable losses.
The balance in the allowance for credit losses is principally influenced by the provision for loan losses, recoveries, and by net loan loss experience. Additions to the allowance are charged to the provision for credit losses. Losses are charged to the allowance as incurred and recoveries on losses previously charged to the allowance are credited to the allowance at the time recovery is collected.
The allowance for credit losses on loans was $34.3 million, or 1.94% of total loans, and 84.5% of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2026.
A provision for credit losses of $5.3 million was made during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and $31.2 million for the same period in 2025. The provisions made during the six months ended June 30, 2025 included a $0.5 million negative provision for credit losses related to unfunded commitments. First Guaranty's unfunded commitments declined during the first six months of 2025 which resulted in a reduced liability. The provisions made were taken to provide for current credit losses and to maintain the allowance proportionate to risks inherent in the loan portfolio.
-46-
The loan portfolio factors in the first six months of 2026 that primarily affected the allocation of the allowance included the following:
•
Construction and land development loans decreased $50.5 million during the first six months of 2026. The allowance increase was due to changes in the qualitative analysis of the portfolio.
•
One-to-four family residential loans decreased $8.4 million during the first six months of 2026. The allowance decrease related to this portfolio was due primarily to charge-offs of the portfolio.
•
Multifamily loans decreased $58.5 million during the first six months of 2026. The allowance increase related to this portfolio was due primarily to a $1.8 million increase in the allowance for loans individually evaluated.
•
Non-farm non-residential loans decreased by $158.2 million during the first six months of 2026. The allowance decrease related to this portfolio was due primarily to charge-offs of the portfolio.
•
Commercial and industrial loans decreased $6.1 million during the first six months of 2026. The allowance decrease related to this portfolio was due primarily to charge-offs and changes in the qualitative analysis of the portfolio.
•
Commercial leases decreased $19.0 million during the first six months of 2026. The allowance increase was due to changes in the qualitative analysis of the portfolio.
•
Consumer and other loans decreased $11.8 million during the first six months of 2026. The decrease in the related allowance balance was due primarily to charge-offs and changes in the qualitative analysis of the portfolio.

Deposits
Managing the mix and pricing the maturities of deposit liabilities is an important factor affecting our ability to maximize our net interest margin. The strategies used to manage interest-bearing deposit liabilities are designed to adjust as the interest rate environment changes. We regularly assess our funding needs, deposit pricing and interest rate outlooks. First Guaranty Bank uses reciprocal deposit insurance products for collateralization of deposits. In addition to reciprocal deposits, First Guaranty may periodically utilize one-way sell options under these networks that results in a drop in deposits and corresponding drop in cash, removing those assets and deposit liabilities from the balance sheet. Total deposits in the one-way sell network were $285.0 million at June 30, 2026. From December 31, 2025 to June 30, 2026, total deposits decreased $175.8 million, or 4.8%, to $3.5 billion. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $0.7 million, or 0.2%, to $415.3 million at June 30, 2026. The increase in noninterest-bearing demand deposits was primarily concentrated in business noninterest-bearing demand deposits. Interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $72.3 million, or 6.2%, to $1.1 billion at June 30, 2026. The decrease in interest-bearing demand deposits was primarily concentrated in public funds interest-bearing demand deposits that were in the reciprocal deposit network. Savings deposits increased $10.5 million, or 4.9%, to $224.4 million at June 30, 2026, primarily related to increases in individual savings deposits. Time deposits decreased $114.7 million, or 6.2%, to $1.7 billion at June 30, 2026, primarily due to decreases in individual and brokered time deposits.
Management will continue to evaluate and update our product mix and related technology in its efforts to attract additional customers. We currently offer a number of deposit products that are competitively priced and designed to attract and retain customers with primary emphasis on noninterest-bearing deposits, select time deposits and other lower cost deposits.
As of June 30, 2026, the aggregate amount of outstanding certificates of deposit in amounts greater than $250,000 was approximately $154.3 million. At June 30, 2026, approximately $29.0 million of First Guaranty's certificates of deposit greater than $250,000 had a remaining term greater than one year.
Brokered deposits totaled $1.1 billion as of June 30, 2026. Brokered deposits with a maturity of one year or less totaled $284.6 million as of June 30, 2026. Brokered deposits with an early redemption call option within one year totaled $207.4 million.
The total amount of our uninsured deposits (deposits in excess of $250,000, as calculated in accordance with FDIC regulations) was estimated at $276.2 million at June 30, 2026. This total excludes public funds deposits that are collateralized by securities or FHLB letters of credit. The amount of uninsured deposits including collateralized public funds deposits was estimated at $883.6 million at June 30, 2026.

Public funds deposits totaled $938.2 million at June 30, 2026 and $927.2 million
at
December 31, 2025. Public funds time deposits totaled $76.7 million at June 30, 2026 compared to $78.7 million at December 31, 2025. First Guaranty has developed a program for the retention and management of public funds deposits. Since the end of 2012, First Guaranty has maintained public funds deposits in excess of $400.0 million. These deposits are from public entities such as school districts, hospital districts, sheriff departments and municipalities. The majority of these funds are under fiscal agency agreements with terms of three years or less. Deposits under fiscal agency agreements are generally stable but public entities may maintain the ability to negotiate term deposits on a specific basis including with other financial institutions. These deposits generally have stable balances as we maintain both operating accounts and time deposits for these entities. There is a seasonal component to public deposit levels associated with annual tax collections. Public funds will increase at the end of the year and during the first quarter. In addition to seasonal fluctuations, there are monthly fluctuations associated with internal payroll and short-term tax collection accounts for our public funds deposit accounts. Public funds deposit accounts are collateralized by FHLB letters of credit, by expanded reciprocal deposit insurance programs, by Louisiana municipal bonds and by eligible government and government agency securities such as those issued by the FHLB, FFCB, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac. First Guaranty intends to grow the proportion of its public funds portfolio that is collateralized by reciprocal deposit insurance as an alternative to pledging securities or utilizing FHLB letters of credit. First Guaranty initiated this strategy to invest these deposits more efficiently in higher yielding loans to improve the net interest margin and earnings. Total public funds collateralized by reciprocal deposit insurance programs decreased to $512.7 million at June 30, 2026 compared to $602.2 million at December 31, 2025.
The following table sets forth public funds as a percent of total deposits.

Borrowings
First Guaranty maintains borrowing relationships with other financial institutions as well as the Federal Home Loan Bank on a short and long-term basis to meet liquidity needs. First Guaranty had $7.2 million in short-term borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2026 and $7.1 million at December 31, 2025. The short-term borrowings at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were comprised of repurchase agreements.
First Guaranty had long-term borrowings from the FHLB that totaled $135.0 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. First Guaranty converted previous short-term floating rate borrowings from the FHLB into long-term lower fixed rate borrowings in order to reduce interest expense. First Guaranty has a $100.0 million FHLB advance that matures in the second quarter of 2027, and a $35.0 million FHLB advance that matures in the third quarter of 2027.
First Guaranty had senior long-term debt totaling $14.2 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. In the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the parties amended the note to waive principal payments and permit quarterly interest payments in cash or common stock through March 31, 2026. On March 20, 2026, the parties extended the waiver of principal payments and the ability to make interest payments in cash or common stock through March 31, 2028.
First Guaranty had subordinated debt totaling $29.8 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, First Guaranty entered into an amendment permitting quarterly interest to be paid in cash or common stock through March 31, 2026. On March 20, 2026, the parties extended the ability to make interest payments in cash or common stock through March 31, 2028.
First Guaranty had $232.3 million in Federal Home Loan Bank letters of credit as of June 30, 2026 compared to $327.2 million at December 31, 2025. Federal Home Loan Bank letters of credit are obtained primarily for collateralizing public deposits.
Total Shareholders' Equity
Total shareholders' equity increased to $227.4 million at June 30, 2026 from $226.2 million at December 31, 2025. The increase in shareholders' equity was principally the result of an increase of $4.7 million in retained earnings, an increase of $5.9 million in surplus, and an increase of $0.7 million in common stock, partially offset by an increase of $10.2 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The $4.7 million increase in retained earnings was primarily due to net income of $6.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, partially offset by $0.3 million in cash dividends paid on shares of our common stock and $1.2 million in cash dividends paid on shares of our preferred stock. The $5.9 million increase in surplus and $0.7 million increase in common stock was primarily due to the issuance of common stock under private placement during the first six months of 2026, and common stock issued as payment-in-kind for interest on senior long-term and subordinated debt. The increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss was primarily attributed to the increase in unrealized losses on available for sale securities during the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Net Interest Income
Our operating results depend primarily on our net interest income, which is the difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets, including loans and securities, and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, including deposits and other borrowed funds. Interest rate fluctuations, as well as changes in the amount and type of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, combine to affect net interest income. First Guaranty’s assets and liabilities are generally most affected by changes in the Federal Funds rate, SOFR rate, short-term Treasury rates such as one month and three month Treasury bills, and longer term Treasury rates such as the U.S. ten year Treasury rate. Our net interest income is affected by changes in the amount and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. There may also be a time lag in the effect of interest rate changes on assets and liabilities. It is also affected by changes in yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and other borrowed funds.
A financial institution's asset and liability structure is substantially different from that of a non-financial company, in that virtually all assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Accordingly, changes in interest rates may have a significant impact on a financial institution's performance. The impact of interest rate changes depends on the sensitivity to the change of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The effects of the changing interest rate environment in recent periods and our interest sensitivity position is discussed below.
Three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $22.3 million and $22.2 million, respectively. The increase in net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the prior year period was primarily due to a decrease in the average rate of our total interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by a decrease in the average yield of our total interest-earning assets, a decrease in the average balance of our total interest-earning assets and an increase in the average balance of our total interest-bearing liabilities. The average rate of our total interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 40 basis points to 3.60% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from 4.00% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The primary source of the decrease in liabilities cost was associated with the repricing of interest bearing demand deposits for public funds that are primarily indexed to Treasury rates. The average yield of our interest-earning assets decreased by 26 basis points to 5.46% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from 5.72% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to a lower yield on interest-earning deposits with banks. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the average balance of our total interest-earning assets decreased by $42.5 million to $3.8 billion due to the decrease in the average balance on loans. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the average balance of our total interest-bearing liabilities increased by $12.0 million to $3.2 billion primarily due to growth in time deposits. As a result, our net interest rate spread increased 14 basis points to 1.86% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from 1.72% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Our net interest margin increased 3 basis points to 2.37% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from 2.34% for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $43.0 million and $44.5 million, respectively. The decrease in net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the prior year period was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of our total interest-bearing liabilities and a decrease in the average yield of our total interest-earning assets, partially offset by a decrease in the average rate of our interest-bearing liabilities and an increase in the average balance of our total interest-earning assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the average balance of our total interest-bearing liabilities increased by $131.8 million to $3.4 billion primarily due to growth in interest-bearing time deposits. The average yield of our interest-earning assets decreased by 40 basis points to 5.34% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from 5.74% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to a lower yield on interest-earning deposits with banks. The average rate of our total interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 38 basis points to 3.63% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from 4.01% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The primary source of the decrease in liabilities cost was associated with the repricing of interest bearing demand deposits for public funds that are primarily indexed to Treasury rates. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the average balance of our total interest-earning assets increased by $90.5 million to $3.9 billion due to growth in the securities portfolio and an increase in interest-earning deposits with banks. As a result, our net interest rate spread decreased 2 basis points to 1.71% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from 1.73% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Our net interest margin decreased 13 basis points to 2.22% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from 2.35% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Interest income decreased $3.0 million, or 5.6%, to $51.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the prior year period. The decrease in interest income was attributable to a decrease in the average balance and average yield of interest-earning assets. The average balance of our interest-earning assets decreased $42.5 million to $3.8 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the same period in the prior year.

The average yield on securities increased 45 basis points to 3.91% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 3.46% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 due to the increase in higher yielding securities.

The average balance of our interest-earning assets increased $90.5 million to $3.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the same period in the prior year.
Interest income on securities increased $11.2 million to $22.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the prior year period primarily as a result of an increase in average balance and average yield of securities. The average balance of securities increased $509.7 million to $1.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $664.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to a increase in the average balance of our mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations securities portfolio compared to the prior year. The average yield on securities increased 43 basis points to 3.86% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 3.43% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to the increase in higher yielding securities.

Interest Expense
Three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Interest expense decreased $3.1 million, or 9.6%, to $29.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $32.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 due primarily to a decrease on the average rate of interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased by $12.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026 to $3.2 billion as compared to the prior year period. This increase was a result of a $353.3 million increase in the average balance of time deposits, partially offset by a $302.8 million decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing demand deposits, a $24.2 million decrease in the average balance of savings deposits, and a $14.3 million decrease in the average balance of borrowings. The average rate of interest-bearing demand deposits was 3.11% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 3.73% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in market interest rates, particularly U.S. Treasury rates, contributed to the decrease in rates paid on interest-bearing demand deposits. The largest concentration of interest-bearing demand deposits is associated with public funds deposits that are primarily indexed to Treasury rates. The average rate of time deposits decreased 37 basis points during the three months ended June 30, 2026 to 3.96% as compared to the prior year period. The decrease in the average rate of time deposits was due to changes in market rates as existing time deposits repriced.
Six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Interest expense decreased $3.7 million, or 5.8%, to $60.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $64.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 due primarily to a decrease on the average rate of interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased by $131.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026 to $3.4 billion as compared to the prior year period. This increase was a result of a $394.1 million increase in the average balance of time deposits, partially offset by a $224.2 million decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing demand deposits, a $23.0 million decrease in the average balance of savings deposits, and a $15.1 million decrease in the average balance of borrowings. The average rate of interest-bearing demand deposits was 3.14% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 3.67% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in market interest rates, particularly U.S. Treasury rates, contributed to the decrease in rates paid on interest-bearing demand deposits.

The following tables set forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the periods indicated. No tax-equivalent yield adjustments were made, as the effect thereof was not material. All average balances are daily average balances. Non-accrual loans were included in the computation of average balances but have been reflected in the tables as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred fees, discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense.
The net interest income yield shown below in the average balance sheet is calculated by dividing net interest income by average interest-earning assets and is a measure of the efficiency of the earnings from balance sheet activities. It is affected by changes in the difference between interest on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the percentage of interest-earning assets funded by interest-bearing liabilities.

Provision for Credit Losses
A provision for credit losses is a charge to income in an amount that management believes is necessary to maintain an adequate allowance for credit losses. The allowance for loan losses is calculated under ASC 326 and is management's evaluation of expected credit losses over the life of the loans in the portfolio. The provision is based on management's regular evaluation of current economic conditions in our specific markets as well as regionally and nationally, changes in the character and size of the loan portfolio, underlying collateral values securing loans, and other factors which deserve recognition in estimating loan losses. Past events, current conditions, and reasonable forecasts, along with quantitative and qualitative adjustments, are used in calculating the allowance for credit losses. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available or as future events change.
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the provision for credit losses was $2.6 million compared to $16.6 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease in the provision was primarily impacted by changes in the loan portfolio. Total charge-offs were $7.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and $1.1 million for the same period in 2025. Charge-offs for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were concentrated in one commercial lease loan relationship. Partially offsetting these charge-offs were recoveries that totaled $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and $0.2 million for the same period in 2025.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the provision for credit losses was $5.3 million compared to $31.2 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease in the provision was primarily impacted by changes in the loan portfolio. Total charge-offs were $13.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and $8.0 million for the same period in 2025. Charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were concentrated in one commercial lease loan relationship, one commercial and industrial loan and one non-farm non-residential loan relationship secured by retail real estate. Partially offsetting these charge-offs were recoveries that totaled $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and $0.4 million for the same period in 2025.
We believe that the allowance is adequate to cover current expected losses in the loan portfolio given the current economic conditions, and current expected net charge-offs and nonperforming asset levels. Economic uncertainty may result in additional increases to the allowance for credit losses in future periods.
There was no provision for credit losses on AFS or HTM securities in the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Noninterest Income
Our primary sources of recurring noninterest income are customer service fees, ATM and debit card fees, loan fees, gains on the sales of loans and available for sale securities and other service fees. Noninterest income does not include loan origination fees which are recognized over the life of the related loan as an adjustment to yield using the interest method.
Noninterest income totaled $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, a decrease of $0.3 million from $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in ATM and debit card fees and service charges, commissions, and fees. Service charges, commissions and fees totaled $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and $0.8 million for the same period in 2025. ATM and debit card fees totaled $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and $0.8 million for the same period in 2025. Net gains on the sale of securities were $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. Net gains on the sale of assets were $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. Other noninterest income totaled $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Noninterest income totaled $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, a decrease of $0.4 million from $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in ATM and debit card fees and service charges, commissions, and fees. Service charges, commissions and fees totaled $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and $1.7 million for the same period in 2025. ATM and debit card fees totaled $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and $1.5 million for the same period in 2025. Net gains on the sale of securities were $1,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $0 for the same period in 2025. Net gains on the sale of assets were $44,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $4,000 for the same period in 2025. Other noninterest income totaled $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
-56-
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense totaled $17.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $17.3 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower salaries and employee benefits expense, partially offset by increases in other real estate and regulatory assessment expenses. Salaries and employee benefits expense decreased to $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $7.8 million for the same period in 2025. Occupancy and equipment expense was $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $2.6 million for the same period in 2025. Other noninterest expense totaled $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $6.8 million for the same period in 2025. Legal fees increased to $0.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $0.7 million for the same period in 2025. Net costs related to other real estate and repossessions totaled $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $24,000 for the same period in 2025, primarily due to costs associated with an independent living center that is in other real estate owned. Regulatory assessment expense increased to $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $1.6 million for the same period in 2025.
Noninterest expense totaled $33.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $35.3 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower salaries and employee benefits expense, partially offset by increases in other real estate and regulatory assessment expenses. Salaries and employee benefits expense decreased to $14.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $16.3 million for the same period in 2025. Occupancy and equipment expense was $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $5.2 million for the same period in 2025. Other noninterest expense totaled $14.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $13.8 million for the same period in 2025. Legal fees decreased to $1.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $1.8 million for the same period in 2025, primarily due to higher legal costs in the first six months of 2025 related to loan sales. This decrease was partially offset by higher costs associated with other real estate owned and increased regulatory assessment expense. Net costs related to other real estate and repossessions totaled $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $74,000 for the same period in 2025, primarily due to costs associated with an independent living center that is in other real estate owned. Regulatory assessment expense increased to $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $3.2 million for the same period in 2025.

Income Taxes
The amount of income tax expense is influenced by the amount of pre-tax income, the amount of tax-exempt income and the amount of other non-deductible expenses and the statutory tax rate. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $0.9 million compared to a benefit of $2.2 million for the same period in 2025. The provision for income taxes increased due to an increase in income before income taxes. First Guaranty's statutory tax rate was 21.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $1.7 million compared to a benefit of $4.0 million for the same period in 2025. The provision for income taxes increased due to an increase in income before income taxes. First Guaranty's statutory tax rate was 21.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Liquidity refers to the ability or flexibility to manage future cash flows to meet the needs of depositors and borrowers and fund operations. Maintaining appropriate levels of liquidity allows us to have sufficient funds available to meet customer demand for loans, withdrawal of deposit balances and maturities of deposits and other liabilities. Liquid assets include cash and due from banks, interest-earning demand deposits with banks, federal funds sold and available for sale investment securities.
As noted below in Part II, Item 1A Risk Factors, the issuance of the Consent Order could adversely affect the willingness of the Bank’s sources of liquidity, including depositors, the Federal Home Loan Bank, deposit placement networks, brokered deposit sources and other counterparties to provide or maintain liquidity or funding to the Bank.
First Guaranty's cash and cash equivalents totaled $781.6 million at June 30, 2026 compared to $845.7 million at December 31, 2025. Loans maturing within one year or less at June 30, 2026 totaled $381.0 million compared to $469.5 million at December 31, 2025. At June 30, 2026, time deposits maturing within one year or less totaled $765.8 million compared to $977.0 million at December 31, 2025. Time deposits maturing after one year through three years totaled $633.6 million at June 30, 2026 compared to $507.8 million at December 31, 2025. Time deposits maturing after three years totaled $325.2 million at June 30, 2026 compared to $52.2 million at December 31, 2025. First Guaranty's held to maturity ("HTM") securities portfolio at June 30, 2026 was $323.2 million, or 26.6% of the investment portfolio, compared to $322.7 million, or 32.3% at December 31, 2025. First Guaranty's available for sale ("AFS") securities portfolio was $890.8 million, or 73.4% of the investment portfolio as of June 30, 2026 compared to $676.6 million, or 67.7% of the investment portfolio at December 31, 2025. The majority of the AFS portfolio was comprised of corporate debt securities, municipal bonds, collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage-backed securities.
First Guaranty maintained a net borrowing capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank totaling $73.8 million and $97.5 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively with $135.0 million in FHLB advances outstanding at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The advances outstanding at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were comprised of two long-term advances that totaled $135.0 million. The change in borrowing capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank was due to changes in the value that First Guaranty receives on pledged collateral and due to First Guaranty's usage of the line. First Guaranty has increasingly transitioned public funds deposits into reciprocal deposit programs for collateralization as an alternative to FHLB letters of credit. We also maintain federal funds lines of credit at various correspondent banks with borrowing capacity of $93.0 million as of June 30, 2026. We also have a discount window line with the Federal Reserve Bank that totaled $59.9 million at June 30, 2026 which was a decrease of $49.3 million compared to availability of $109.2 million at December 31, 2025. First Guaranty did not have any advances under this facility at June 30, 2026. Management believes there is sufficient liquidity to satisfy current operating needs.
Capital Resources
First Guaranty's capital position is reflected in shareholders' equity, subject to certain adjustments for regulatory purposes. Further, our capital base allows us to take advantage of business opportunities while maintaining the level of resources we deem appropriate to address business risks inherent in daily operations.
Total shareholders' equity increased to $227.4 million at June 30, 2026 from $226.2 million at December 31, 2025. The increase in shareholders' equity was principally the result of an increase of $4.7 million in retained earnings, an increase of $5.9 million in surplus, and an increase of $0.7 million in common stock, partially offset by an increase of $10.2 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The $4.7 million increase in retained earnings was primarily due to net income of $6.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, partially offset by $0.3 million in cash dividends paid on shares of our common stock and $1.2 million in cash dividends paid on shares of our preferred stock. The $5.9 million increase in surplus and $0.7 million increase in common stock was primarily due to the issuance of common stock under private placement during the first six months of 2026, and common stock issued as payment-in-kind for interest on senior long-term and subordinated debt. The increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss was primarily attributed to the increase in unrealized losses on available for sale securities during the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Regulatory Capital
Risk-based capital regulations adopted by the FDIC require banks to achieve and maintain specified ratios of capital to risk-weighted assets. Similar capital regulations apply to bank holding companies over $3.0 billion in assets. The risk-based capital rules are designed to measure "Tier 1" capital (consisting of common equity, retained earnings and a limited amount of qualifying perpetual preferred stock and trust preferred securities, net of goodwill and other intangible assets and accumulated other comprehensive income) and total capital in relation to the credit risk of both on- and off- balance sheet items. Under the guidelines, one of its risk weights is applied to the different on-balance sheet items. Off-balance sheet items, such as loan commitments, are also subject to risk weighting. Applicable bank holding companies and all banks must maintain a minimum total capital to total risk weighted assets ratio of 8.00%, at least half of which must be in the form of core or Tier 1 capital. These guidelines also specify that bank holding companies that are experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels.
In order to avoid limitations on distributions, including dividend payments, and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers, an institution must hold a capital conservation buffer above its minimum risk-based capital requirements. As of June 30, 2026, the Bank's capital conservation buffer was 8.21% exceeding the minimum of 2.50%. As of June 30, 2026, First Guaranty's capital conservation buffer was 6.81% exceeding the minimum of 2.50%.
As a result of the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act, the Federal Reserve Board has amended its small bank holding company and savings and loan holding company policy statement to provide that holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $3 billion that are (i) not engaged in significant nonbanking activities, (ii) do not conduct significant off-balance sheet activities, and (3) do not have a material amount of SEC-registered debt or equity securities, other than trust preferred securities, that contribute to an organization's complexity, are no longer subject to regulatory capital requirements, effective August 30, 2018. On January 1, 2024, First Guaranty ceased being considered a "small bank holding company". Accordingly, both the Bank and First Guaranty are required to maintain specified ratios of capital to risk-weighted assets.
In addition, as a result of the legislation, the federal banking agencies have developed a "Community Bank Leverage Ratio" (the ratio of a bank's Tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets) for financial institutions with assets of less than $10 billion. A "qualifying community bank" that exceeds this ratio will be deemed to be in compliance with all other capital and leverage requirements, including the capital requirements to be considered "well capitalized" under Prompt Corrective Action statutes. The federal banking agencies may consider a financial institution's risk profile when evaluating whether it qualifies as a community bank for purposes of the capital ratio requirement. In April 2026, the federal banking agencies finalized a rule lowering the Community Bank Leverage Ratio to 8%, effective July 1, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, the Bank has not elected to follow the Community Bank Leverage Ratio.
At June 30, 2026, First Guaranty and the Bank each satisfied the minimum numerical capital ratio thresholds to be considered well capitalized under applicable federal regulatory requirements. However, because the Consent Order requires the Bank to meet and maintain specific capital levels, the Bank may not be considered well capitalized for purposes of the prompt corrective action framework while the Consent Order remains in effect, even if its capital ratios otherwise exceed the applicable numerical thresholds. As a bank holding company, First Guaranty’s financial condition and liquidity may be adversely affected by any limitations on the Bank’s regulatory capital status, operations, dividends or funding sources. Although the Consent Order does not directly impose capital requirements on First Guaranty, the Bank’s regulatory standing may adversely affect First Guaranty’s liquidity, regulatory standing and its ability in engage in certain activities.

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Asset/Liability Management and Market Risk
Our asset/liability management (ALM) process consists of quantifying, analyzing and controlling interest rate risk (IRR) to maintain reasonably stable net interest income levels under various interest rate environments. The principal objective of ALM is to maximize net interest income while operating within acceptable limits established for interest rate risk and to maintain adequate levels of liquidity.
The majority of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Consequently, one of our most significant forms of market risk is interest rate risk, which is inherent in our lending and deposit-taking activities. Our assets, consisting primarily of loans secured by real estate and fixed rate securities in our investment portfolio, have longer maturities than our liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits. As a result, a principal part of our business strategy is to manage interest rate risk and reduce the exposure of our net interest income to changes in market interest rates. The board of directors of First Guaranty Bank has established two committees, the management asset liability committee and the board investment committee, to oversee the interest rate risk inherent in our assets and liabilities, for determining the level of risk that is appropriate given our business strategy, operating environment, capital, liquidity and performance objectives, and for managing this risk consistent with the guidelines approved by the board of directors. The management asset liability committee is comprised of senior officers of the Bank and meets as needed to review our asset liability policies and interest rate risk position. The board ALCO investment committee is comprised of certain members of the board of directors of the Bank and meets monthly. The management asset liability committee provides a monthly report to the board ALCO investment committee.
The need for interest sensitivity gap management is most critical in times of rapid changes in overall interest rates. First Guaranty has generally been liability sensitive. We modified our business plan in 2024 to reduce the liability sensitive nature of our balance sheet. We are working to limit our future exposure to interest rate fluctuations by creating a more balanced mix of rate sensitive assets and liabilities on a one-year time horizon and greater than one-year time horizon. We purchased amortizing mortgage backed securities in 2024, 2025 and 2026. We also purchased U.S. Treasury securities with a maturity of one year or less in 2024. Because of the significant impact on net interest margin from mismatches in repricing opportunities, we monitor the asset-liability mix periodically depending upon the management asset liability committee's assessment of current business conditions and the interest rate outlook. These strategies include, but are not limited to, frequent internal modeling of asset and liability values and behavior due to changes in interest rates. We monitor cash flow forecasts closely and evaluate the impact of both prepayments and extension risk.
-61-
The following interest sensitivity analysis is one measurement of interest rate risk. This analysis reflects the contractual maturity characteristics of assets and liabilities over various time periods. This analysis does not factor in prepayments or interest rate floors on loans which may significantly change the report. This table includes nonaccrual loans in their respective maturity periods. The gap indicates whether more assets or liabilities are subject to repricing over a given time period. The interest sensitivity analysis at June 30, 2026 illustrated below reflects a liability-sensitive position with a negative cumulative gap on a one-year basis.
The interest spread and liability funding discussed below are directly related to changes in asset and liability mixes, volumes, maturities and repricing opportunities for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Interest-sensitive assets and liabilities are those which are subject to repricing in the near term, including both floating or adjustable rate instruments and instruments approaching maturity. The interest sensitivity gap is the difference between total interest-sensitive assets and total interest-sensitive liabilities. Interest rates on our various asset and liability categories do not respond uniformly to changing market conditions. Interest rate risk is the degree to which interest rate fluctuations in the marketplace can affect net interest income.

Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), a Company's "disclosure controls and procedures" means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. First Guaranty maintains such controls designed to ensure this material information is communicated to Management, including the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), as appropriate, to allow timely decision regarding required disclosure.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
First Guaranty is subject to various legal proceedings in the normal course of its business. First Guaranty assesses its liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal proceedings. Where it is probable that First Guaranty will incur a loss and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, First Guaranty records a liability in its consolidated financial statements. First Guaranty does not record a loss if the loss is not probable, or the amount of the loss is not estimable. First Guaranty Bank is a defendant in a lawsuit alleging fault for a loss of funds by a customer related to fraud by a third party, with a possible loss range of $0.0 million to $1.5 million. The Bank denies the allegations and intends to vigorously defend against this lawsuit, which is in early stages, and no trial has been set. No accrued liability has been recorded related to this lawsuit. In the opinion of management, neither First Guaranty nor First Guaranty Bank is currently involved in such legal proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, that the resolution is expected to have a material adverse effect on First Guaranty’s consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. However, one or more unfavorable outcomes in these ordinary claims or litigation against First Guaranty or First Guaranty Bank could have a material adverse effect for the period in which they are resolved. In addition, regardless of their merits or ultimate outcomes, such matters are costly, divert management’s attention, and may materially and adversely affect the reputation of First Guaranty and First Guaranty Bank, even if resolved favorably.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Except as disclosed in the updated risk factors below and elsewhere in this report, there are no material changes during the period covered by this Report to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. In particular, please see the discussion under the in Part I Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this report.
The Consent Order issued by the FDIC and OFI requires the Bank to devote significant resources to enhance its policies, procedures, and practices, and places additional restrictions on the Bank’s operations, and the failure to comply with any provision of the Consent Order may cause the FDIC to take further action against it.
On August 5, 2026, the Bank consented to the issuance of the Consent Order by the FDIC and the OFI. The Consent Order requires the Bank and/or the Bank Board to, among other things, maintain a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio equal to or greater than 9% and a total risk-based capital ratio equal to or greater than 14%, undertake a number of actions and comply with certain restrictions relating primarily to board oversight, capital maintenance, classified assets, credit administration, commercial real estate (CRE) concentrations and monitoring, and dividends. Because the Consent Order requires the Bank to meet and maintain specific capital levels, the Bank may not be considered “well capitalized” for purposes of the prompt corrective action framework, even if its capital ratios otherwise exceed the numerical thresholds for well capitalized status, while the Consent Order remains in effect. In addition, the Bank’s ability to accept, renew or roll over brokered deposits, including certain deposits obtained through deposit placement networks, may be limited. The issuance of the Consent Order could adversely affect the willingness of depositors, the FHLB, deposit placement networks, brokered deposit sources and other counterparties to provide or maintain liquidity or funding to the Bank, which could adversely affect the Bank’s liquidity, funding costs, financial condition and results of operations.
The Consent Order also restricts the Bank’s ability to pay dividends without the prior written consent of the FDIC and OFI, which could adversely affect First Guaranty’s liquidity and ability to pay dividends on its preferred or common stock or meet its other obligations. The Consent Order may also require the Bank to charge off, collect or reduce classified assets, limit additional extensions of credit to certain classified borrowers, and implement or enhance policies, procedures, monitoring and reporting related to loan administration, loan review, CRE concentrations, underwriting and credit administration. These requirements are expected to result in increased compliance, consulting, legal and other noninterest expenses, require significant management and board attention, and may adversely affect the Bank’s operations, financial condition and results of operations. The Bank’s regulatory status may also adversely affect First Guaranty’s regulatory standing, liquidity, and its ability in engage certain activities.
First Guaranty's management and board of directors have devoted and expect to continue to devote considerable time, attention, and resources on developing, implementing, and monitoring corrective actions to comply with the terms of the Consent Order.
There is no guarantee that First Guaranty will ultimately address the FDIC’s and OFI’s concerns and comply with all of the terms of the Consent Order. Issuance of the Consent Order does not preclude further government action, including the assessment of civil money penalties or other enforcement actions, if the FDIC and/or the OFI determine that the Bank has continued, or has failed to correct, the practices and/or violations described in the Consent Order or that the Bank otherwise is violating or has violated the Consent Order.
