What Happened

• FirstSun Capital Bancorp announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025 via an earnings press release dated January 26, 2026 (furnished as Exhibit 99.1). The company also posted an investor presentation on its website on January 26, 2026 to be used on an earnings call scheduled for January 27, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. EST (furnished as Exhibit 99.2).
• Separately, on January 23, 2026 director Diane L. Merdian notified the company she will resign as a director of FirstSun and Sunflower Bank, N.A., effective at the earlier of the closing of the company’s proposed merger with First Foundation Inc. or the 2026 Annual Meeting. On the same date the Board appointed Peter E. Murphy as a Class III director, effective immediately, with a term expiring at the 2026 Annual Meeting.
