BayFirst Financial Corp. filed a current report noting that it issued a press release on January 29, 2026 announcing its financial results for the fourth quarter of 2025, which is furnished as Exhibit 99.1.

BayFirst Financial Corp. entered into an amendment with holders of its $6.0 million 4.5% Fixed to Floating Subordinated Notes due June 30, 2031. Effective December 26, 2025, instead of paying cash interest, the company will increase the Notes’ principal by the interest due through June 30, 2026, effectively adding unpaid interest to the loan balance. If all amounts on the Notes are not paid by June 30, 2026, the company may either pay holders 3% of the outstanding principal or increase the principal by 3%.

Separately, on December 30, 2025, First National Bankers Bank allowed BayFirst to defer the quarterly interest payment that was due December 10, 2025 on a term loan until March 10, 2026. As of December 31, 2025, the term loan principal was $1.6 million at an interest rate of 6.75%.

Banesco USA will assume servicing of BayFirst’s remaining SBA 7(a) loans, meaning Banesco will handle ongoing payments and administration for those loans going forward. BayFirst disclosed this change in a public announcement dated December 15, 2025.
