On April 1, 2019, FB Financial Corporation (the “Company”), the parent company of FirstBank, announced that FirstBank has entered an agreement with Renasant Bank to sell its third party origination channel. The agreement is subject to customary closing conditions, and upon closing, Renasant Bank will assume substantially all of the assets and personnel related to the third party origination channel. The Company expects the transaction to close during the second quarter.

Additionally, on April 1, 2019, the Company announced that FirstBank has entered into a non-binding letter of intent to sell its correspondent channel to an unrelated third party. Assuming completion of the transaction, the third party will assume substantially all of the assets and personnel related to FirstBank’s correspondent channel. The proposed transaction is subject to, among other things, the potential buyer’s review of the assets to be purchased, as well as the negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement with respect to the transaction, which will include certain terms and conditions, including customary representations and warranties. Subject to signing of an agreement and final diligence, the Company expects the transaction to close in the second quarter.

A press release regarding the announcement of these two transactions is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
