One clear emerging threat is the rapid growth and increasing market share of neobanks and challenger banks. These digital-first financial institutions offer highly competitive interest rates, lower fees, and superior digital user experiences, directly challenging traditional banks like FB Financial for deposits and retail customers, especially among younger, digitally native demographics.

Another clear emerging threat is the continued and expanding entry of Big Tech companies (e.g., Apple, Google, Amazon) into financial services. Leveraging vast customer bases, data analytics capabilities, and strong brand loyalty, these companies are increasingly offering payment solutions, lending products, and other financial tools that bypass traditional banking relationships, potentially disintermediating regional banks from key customer interactions and revenue streams.

FB Financial (symbol: FBK) primarily operates in two main segments: Banking and Mortgage. The addressable markets for these services in the United States are as follows:

• Community Banking: The U.S. community banking market was valued at approximately $6.35 billion in 2024, with a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.8%.
• Mortgage Lending: The U.S. home loan market reached approximately $2.29 trillion in 2025 and is forecasted to grow to $3.02 trillion by 2030, advancing at a CAGR of 5.63%.

• Strategic Acquisitions and Market Expansion: FB Financial has demonstrated a clear strategy of growth through mergers and acquisitions. The recently completed merger with Southern States Bancshares, Inc., which closed on July 1, 2025, is expected to be a significant driver of increased net interest income and overall growth, expanding the company's presence in high-value contiguous markets. This follows previous acquisitions that have increased deposit market share in key regions like Nashville.
• Growth in Loans and Deposits: The company consistently reports a focus on and achievement of loan and deposit growth. Management has expressed optimism for "low double-digit loan and deposit growth in 2025." In the third quarter of 2024, loans held for investment increased by a 7.20% annualized rate, and deposits grew significantly. This trend continued into the first quarter of 2025, with loans held for investment increasing by 7.14% annualized. These increases directly contribute to net interest income, the primary component of the company's revenue.
• Net Interest Margin (NIM) Improvement: FB Financial's net interest margin has shown resilience and potential for improvement. While there have been minor fluctuations, the company's strategic actions, such as securities sales and reinvestment, have aimed to enhance its margin. Management anticipates benefits from expected future interest rate decreases, which could positively impact NIM. Furthermore, the Southern States merger is expected to benefit NIM due to Southern States' historically higher pre-merger margin.
• Organic Growth: Alongside strategic expansions, FB Financial emphasizes organic growth within its existing footprint across Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama, and North Georgia. This organic expansion is reflected in the consistent growth of its loan and customer deposit base, contributing to overall revenue generation.
