Southside Bancshares plans a full $100M redemption of 2030 subordinated notes.

Southside Bancshares, Inc. intends to redeem all of its 3.875% Fixed to Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2030 on February 15, 2026. The aggregate principal amount to be redeemed is $100 million, which includes $7 million of notes previously repurchased by the company. The redemption price is set at 100% of principal, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the redemption date.

These notes were issued under a subordinated indenture dated November 6, 2020 with UMB Bank, National Association, acting as trustee. Because the notes are subordinated and fixed-to-floating rate, their removal simplifies this layer of the capital structure and eliminates future interest obligations tied to this instrument after the redemption date. Actual effects depend on how the company replaces or reallocates this funding.

Interest will cease to accrue on and after February 15, 2026, which marks the end of this specific debt obligation under the indenture. Subsequent company disclosures may provide further detail on any new financing or balance sheet adjustments that relate to this redemption.
