What Changed

Risk factors · Feb 27, 2025 → Feb 26, 2026

37 added · 45 removed between the two most recent 10-Ks. The risks a company starts — or stops — disclosing are often the story.

Newly disclosed

Following the adoption of additional listing requirements in 2023 to comply with the Dodd-Frank Act and rules adopted by the SEC in October 2022, public companies are now required to adopt and implement “clawback” policies for incentive compensation payments and to disclose the details of the procedures which allow recovery of incentive compensation that was paid on the basis of erroneous financial information necessitating an accounting restatement due to material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements.
On July 26, 2023, the SEC adopted final rules that require public companies to promptly disclose material cybersecurity incidents in a Current Report on Form 8-K and detailed information regarding their cybersecurity risk management, strategy, and governance on an annual basis in its Annual Reports on Form 10-K.
Furthermore, once final rules are adopted, the Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act, enacted in March 2022, will require certain covered entities to report a covered incident to the U.S.
Among other things, it codifies a risk-based approach to anti-money laundering compliance for financial institutions; requires the development of standards for evaluating technology and internal processes for BSA compliance; and expands enforcement-related and investigation-related authority, including increasing available sanctions for certain BSA violations and instituting BSA whistleblower initiatives and protections.
At December 31, 2025, the unfunded commitment related to overdraft services was $78.3 million. 8 Investment Activities At December 31, 2025, investment securities comprised 20.5% of Peoples’ total assets, compared to 20.7% at December 31, 2024.
In 2025, Peoples Bank was recognized by Newsweek as one of America’s Best Workplaces for the second consecutive year, by Forbes as one of America’s “Best-In-State Banks” for 2025, and by American Banker as a “Best Bank to Work For” for the fifth consecutive year.
The average original loan amount under these convertible rate home equity lines of credit was approximately $52,000 at December 31, 2025. 7 Home equity lines of credit are generally made as second mortgages by Peoples Bank.
In November 2021, the federal bank regulatory agencies issued a final rule, that became effective in May 2022, requiring banking organizations that experience a computer-security incident to notify certain entities.
These SEC rules, and any other regulatory guidance, are in addition to notification and disclosure requirements under state and federal banking law and regulations.
Companies are required to report on Form 8-K any cybersecurity incident they determine to be material within four business days of making that determination.
If Peoples Bank fails to observe the regulatory guidance, it could be subject to various regulatory sanctions, including financial penalties.
Many states have also recently implemented or modified their data breach notification and data privacy requirements.

No longer disclosed

Recent Corporate Developments On October 25, 2022, Peoples announced the signing of a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger providing for Peoples’ acquisition, in an all-stock merger, of Limestone Bancorp Inc.
As consideration, Limestone shareholders received 0.90 common shares of Peoples for each full share of Limestone that was owned at the merger date, resulting in the issuance of 6,827,668 common shares by Peoples, or aggregate consideration of $177.9 million.
Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, Limestone merged with and into Peoples, and Limestone Bank merged with and into Peoples’ wholly-owned subsidiary, Peoples Bank (collectively, the “Limestone Merger”).
Peoples Bank has been recognized by Newsweek as one of America’s Best Workplaces in 2024 and one of America’s Best Regional Banks in 2024, and Peoples Bank has been recognized as a “Best Bank to Work For” by American Banker in each of 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024.
In March 2016, the FDIC adopted final rules designed to meet the statutory minimum DRR of 1.35% by September 30, 2020, the deadline imposed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, as amended (the “Dodd-Frank Act”).
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020 (the “CARES Act”) and Initiatives Related to COVID-19 In response to the novel COVID-19 pandemic, the CARES Act was signed into law on March 27, 2020, to provide national emergency economic relief measures.
The Limestone Merger closed as of the close of business on April 30, 2023.
On December 27, 2020, the President signed into law the Consolidated Appropriates Act, 2021, which included the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits, and Venues Act (the “HHSB Act”).
On October 24, 2023, the federal banking agencies, including the Federal Reserve Board, issued a final rule designed to strengthen and modernize the regulations implementing the CRA.
Section 1102 of the CARES Act amended the loan program of the SBA, in which Peoples Bank participated, to create a guaranteed, unsecured loan program, the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), to fund operational costs of eligible businesses, organizations and self-employed persons during COVID-19.
In June 2020, the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act was enacted, which, among other things, gave borrowers additional time and flexibility to use PPP loan proceeds.
Among other things, the HHSB Act renewed the PPP, allocating $284.5 billion for both new first-time PPP loans under the existing PPP and the expansion of existing PPP loans for certain qualified, existing PPP borrowers.
