FB Bancorp retires 10% of shares in completed buyback.
FB Bancorp completed its second stock repurchase program, retiring 1,785,375 common shares, or 10% of its then outstanding stock, at an average price of $13.717 per share. A reduction of this scale can be meaningful for per-share metrics when earnings are stable.

stock repurchase program financial
"announced the completion of its second stock repurchase program"
A stock repurchase program is when a company buys back its own shares from the market. This can make each remaining share more valuable and shows that the company believes its stock is a good investment. It’s like a business treating its shares like a limited resource, hoping to boost confidence and share prices.
capital management tools financial
"will continue to further explore its capital management tools"
forward-looking statements regulatory
"This press release contains certain forward-looking statements about the stock repurchase program"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
holding company financial
"the holding company for Fidelity Bank"
A holding company is an organization that owns enough shares of other businesses to control them but usually does not run their day-to-day operations. Think of it as an umbrella or parent that lets investors gain exposure to several companies through one vehicle; its value depends on the performance, risks, dividends and debts of the companies it holds, so it matters for assessing diversification, control and consolidated financial health.
