Item 8.01. Other Events.
On December 18, 2025, the Board of Directors of Primis Financial Corp. (the “Company”) authorized a stock repurchase program (the “Stock Repurchase Program”) under which the Company may repurchase up to 750,000 shares of its common stock. The Stock Repurchase Program will begin on December 18, 2025 and end on December 18, 2026. Repurchases under the Stock Repurchase Program may be made from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or such other manners as will comply with applicable laws and regulations. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors including price, corporate and regulatory requirements, market conditions and other corporate liquidity requirements and priorities. The Stock Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to purchase any particular number of shares and there is no guarantee as to the exact number of shares that will be repurchased by the Company. The Stock Repurchase Program may be suspended, modified or terminated by the Company at any time and for any reason, without prior notice.
A copy of the press release announcing the Stock Repurchase Program is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “should,” “will,” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions. Important factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include factors contained in the “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in the Company’s filings with the SEC from time to time, including, but not limited to, its Annual Report on Form 10-K and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and its Current Reports on Form 8-K.

These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements. Except as required by law, the Company assumes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, or to update the reasons if actual results differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements.
