First Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Hammond, Louisiana, October 31, 2025 – First Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. ("First Guaranty") (NASDAQ: FGBI), the holding company for First Guaranty Bank, announced its unaudited financial results for the third quarter and nine months ending September 30, 2025.
Financial Highlights for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025, are as follows:
•Net (loss) income for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $(45.0) million and $1.9 million respectively, a decrease of $46.9 million. Net (loss) income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $(58.5) million and $11.4 million, respectively, a decrease of $69.9 million. During the third quarter, First Guaranty recorded a $47.9 million provision for credit losses. $39.8 million of the $47.9 million provision was associated with one commercial lease relationship further described below. The provision for credit losses, together with the goodwill impairment charge of $12.9 million, were the primary drivers for the loss in the quarter, as net interest income, noninterest income and noninterest expense (excluding the goodwill impairment) were stable.
•First Guaranty has a $52.0 million credit exposure associated with commercial lease financing to entities related to an auto parts manufacturer that declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy during the third quarter. The credit exposure consists of one $17.2 million commercial lease, which was past due on its payments and placed on nonaccrual as of September 30, 2025, and three commercial leases totaling $34.8 million that were current on payments and remained classified as performing as of September 30, 2025. First Guaranty has downgraded all four lease credits to substandard and impaired status. A specific reserve of $17.2 million has been established for the nonaccrual credit and a specific reserve of $22.6 million has been established for the three lease credits that remain performing. The commercial leases are serviced by a third party.
•CEO Michael R. Mineer stated the following: "First Guaranty has made significant progress in reducing risk in our balance sheet and increasing our capital ratios. I am disappointed with the news associated with the auto parts bankruptcy but we have taken proactive steps to reserve against the credit given the current known facts. First Guaranty Bank's risk weighted capital ratio has improved to 12.34% at September 30, 2025 compared to 11.66% at September 30, 2024. Our business strategy change from July of last year prepared the bank to be able to withstand this event. We anticipate further clarification of our position in the fourth quarter of 2025. For the time being we will retain the high level of reserve against these commercial lease credits."
•First Guaranty recognized a one-time non-cash impairment charge to goodwill of $12.9 million. The impairment was the result of First Guaranty's stock price trading below book value and the recent increase in credit provisions. The impairment charge did not impact regulatory capital ratios.
•Total assets decreased $175.4 million and were $3.8 billion at September 30, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024. Total loans at September 30, 2025 were $2.3 billion, a decrease of $414.0 million, or 15.4%, compared with December 31, 2024. Total deposits were $3.4 billion at September 30, 2025, a decrease of $121.4 million, or 3.5%, compared with December 31, 2024. Retained earnings were $12.3 million at September 30, 2025, a decrease of $60.6 million compared to $73.0 million at December 31, 2024. Shareholders' equity was $221.1 million and $255.0 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
•(Loss) earnings per common share were $(3.01) and $0.11 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Total weighted average shares outstanding were 15,122,702 and 12,504,717 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. (Loss) earnings per common share were $(4.45) and $0.78 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Total weighted average shares outstanding were 13,523,009 and 12,499,799 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The change in shares was primarily due to the conversion of $15.0 million in subordinated debt in the second quarter and the issuance of 122,503 shares of common stock under private placement during the third quarter of 2025.
•The allowance for credit losses was 3.76% of total loans at September 30, 2025 compared to 1.29% at December 31, 2024.
•Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $22.2 million compared to $22.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

•Charge-offs were $21.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and $2.6 million during the same period in 2024. Charge-offs for the third quarter of 2025 were concentrated with two commercial real estate credits. $9.4 million was charged off on an independent living center located in Louisiana. $10.4 million was charged off on an apartment complex located in Texas. Recoveries totaled $0.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and $0.2 million during the same period in 2024.

First Guaranty also transferred $4.4 million of existing bank owned properties previously used as either operating branches or future branch development to other real estate owned. The bank plans to sell these properties.
•The net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was 2.34% which was a decrease of 17 basis points from the net interest margin of 2.51% for the same period in 2024. The net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was 2.35% which was a decrease of 17 basis points from the net interest margin of 2.52% for the same period in 2024. Loans as a percentage of average interest earning assets decreased to 65.1% at September 30, 2025 compared to 80.0% at September 30, 2024.
•Investment securities totaled $696.7 million at September 30, 2025, an increase of $94.0 million when compared to $602.7 million at December 31, 2024. At September 30, 2025, available for sale securities, at fair value, totaled $374.3 million, an increase of $93.2 million when compared to $281.1 million at December 31, 2024. At September 30, 2025, held to maturity securities, at amortized cost and net of the allowance for credit losses totaled $322.4 million, an increase of $0.8 million when compared to $321.6 million at December 31, 2024. The allowance for credit losses for HTM securities was $0.2 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
•Total loans net of unearned income were $2.3 billion at September 30, 2025, a net decrease of $414.0 million from December 31, 2024. Total loans net of unearned income are reduced by the allowance for credit losses which totaled $85.7 million at September 30, 2025 and $34.8 million at December 31, 2024, respectively.
•Nonaccrual loans increased $5.7 million to $114.3 million at September 30, 2025 compared to $108.5 million at December 31, 2024. Nonaccrual loans decreased $4.9 million when compared to June 30, 2025. The decrease compared to June 30, 2025 was due principally to the payoff on an $8.8 million commercial real estate loan located in the Midwest and to associated charge offs on existing nonaccrual loans that totaled $21.0 million in the quarter. The decrease was partially offset by the $17.2 million commercial lease placed into nonaccrual.
•At September 30, 2025, the largest 10 non-performing loan relationships comprise 77% of total non-performing assets. Additional details on the non-performing relationships are as follows:

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our accounting and reporting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, we also evaluate our performance based on certain additional metrics. Tangible book value per share and the ratio of tangible equity to tangible assets are not financial measures recognized under GAAP and, therefore, are considered non-GAAP financial measures.
Our management, banking regulators, many financial analysts and other investors use these non-GAAP financial measures to compare the capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts of preferred equity and/or goodwill or other intangible assets, which typically stem from the use of the purchase accounting method of accounting for mergers and acquisitions. Tangible equity, tangible assets, tangible book value per share or related measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for total shareholders' equity, total assets, book value per share or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which we calculate tangible equity, tangible assets, tangible book value per share and any other related measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.
The following table reconciles, as of the dates set forth below, shareholders' equity (on a GAAP basis) to tangible equity and total assets (on a GAAP basis) to tangible assets and calculates our tangible book value per share.

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 September 30, 2025, the Bank's capital conservation buffer was 4.34% exceeding the minimum of 2.50%. As of September 30, 2025, First Guaranty's capital conservation buffer was 3.48% 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. The federal banking agencies set the new Community Bank Leverage Ratio at 9%. Pursuant to the CARES Act, the federal banking agencies set the Community Bank Leverage Ratio at 8% beginning in the second quarter of 2020 through the end of 2020. Beginning in 2021, the Community Bank Leverage Ratio increased to 8.5% for the calendar year. Community banks will have until January 1, 2022, before the Community Bank Leverage Ratio requirement will return to 9%. A financial institution can elect to be subject to this new definition. As of September 30, 2025, the Bank has not elected to follow the Community Bank Leverage Ratio.
At September 30, 2025, we satisfied the minimum regulatory capital requirements and were well capitalized within the meaning of federal regulatory requirements.
