Mineer Chief Executive Officer/President First Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. Dear Shareholders, The third quarter marked another important step forward in strengthening First Guaranty’s financial position and positioning for long-term success. During the quarter, we completed the sale of our Texas operations, which contributed to improved capital levels and enhanced balance sheet flexibility. We also continued to reduce higher-cost funding sources, resulting in a stronger funding profile and improved liquidity. Asset quality remained a key focus. Substandard assets declined by $31.2 million during the quarter, and since year-end we have significantly reduced both special mention and substandard loan balances. We also signed agreements to dispose of several significant problem assets, including our largest OREO property and our second-largest non-performing loan relationship, both of which are expected to close during the fourth quarter. As a result of these efforts, the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio improved to 8.29% and total risk-based capital increased to 18.79%, reflecting meaningful progress in our capital restoration initiatives. While work remains, the actions taken throughout 2026 have strengthened our balance sheet, reduced risk, and positioned First Guaranty to better serve our customers, communities, and shareholders.
