2023 ReportDisclosures Forward‐Looking Statements This slide presentation and certain of our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission contain statements that constitute “forward looking statements” within the meaning of, and subject to the protections of, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward‐looking statements. Such statements can generally be identified by such words as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “assumes,” “should,” “predicts,” “could,” “would,” “intends,” “targets,” “estimates,” “projects,” “plans,” “potential,” “positioned” and other similar words and expressions of the future or otherwise regarding the outlook for the Company’s future business and financial performance and/or the performance of the banking industry and economy in general. Prospective investors are cautioned that any such forward‐looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risk and uncertainties which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from the future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward‐looking statements. Forward‐looking statements are based on the information known to, and current beliefs and expectations of, the Company’s management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward‐looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) competitive pressures among financial institutions increasing significantly; (2) changes in economic or political conditions, either nationally or locally, particularly in areas in which the Company conducts operations; (3) interest rate risk; (4) changes in applicable laws, rules, or regulations; (5) risks related to the Company’s recently completed acquisitions, including that the anticipated benefits from the recently completed acquisitions are not realized in the time frame anticipated or at all as a result of changes in general economic and market conditions or other unexpected factors or events; (6) changes in management’s plans for the future; (7) credit risk associated with our lending activities; changes in interest rates, loan demand, real estate values, or competition; (8) changes in accounting principles, policies, or guidelines; (9) adverse results from current or future litigation, regulatory examinations or other legal and/or regulatory actions, including as a result of the Company’s participation in and execution of government programs related to the COVID‐19 pandemic and related variants; (10) the continued impact of the COVID‐19 pandemic and related variants on the Company’s assets, business, cash flows, financial condition, liquidity, prospects and results of operations; (11) higher inflation and its impacts; (12) the effects of war or other conflicts including the impacts relating to or resulting from Russia’s military action in Ukraine; and (13) other general competitive, economic, political, and market factors, including those affecting our business, operations, pricing, products, or services. Risks relating to the proposed Beach Bancorp, Inc. merger (the “Merger”) including, without limitation, (1) the risk that the cost savings and any revenue synergies from the Merger may not be realized or take longer than anticipated to be realized, (2) disruption from the Merger with customers, suppliers, employee or other business partners relationships, (3) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of one or both of the definitive agreement in respect of the Merger, (4) the risk of successful integration of Beach Bancorp, Inc. into the Company, (5) the failure to obtain the necessary approval by the shareholders of Beach Bancorp, Inc., (6) the amount of the costs, fees, expenses and charges related to the Merger, (7) the ability by the Company to obtain required governmental approvals of the Merger, (8) reputational risk and the reaction of each of the companies’ customers, suppliers, employees or other business partners to the Merger, (9) the failure of the closing conditions in the definitive agreements in respect of the Merger to be satisfied, or any unexpected delay in closing of the Merger, (10) the risk that the integration of the operations of Beach Bancorp, Inc. into the operations of the Company will be materially delayed or will be more costly or difficult than expected, (11) the possibility that the Merger may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events, (12) the dilution caused by the Company’s issuance of additional shares of its common stock in the Merger, and (13) general competitive, economic, political and market conditions. Additional factors which could affect the forward looking statements can be found in the cautionary language included under the headings “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‐K for the year ended December 31, 2021, under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and other documents subsequently filed by the Company with the SEC. Consequently, no forward‐looking statement can be guaranteed. These and other factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described in the forward‐looking statements, as well as a discussion of the risks and uncertainties that may affect our business, can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10‐K and in other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which are available on the SEC’s website, http://www.sec.gov. Undue reliance should not be placed on forward‐looking statements. The Company disclaims any obligation to update such factors or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any of the forward‐looking statements included herein to reflect future events or developments. Use of Non‐GAAP Financial Measures Our accounting and reporting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non‐GAAP measures are used by management to supplement the evaluation of our performance. This slide presentation includes certain non‐GAAP financial measures, including operating per‐tax pre‐provisions income, operating efficiency ratio, operating pre‐tax pre‐provision return on average assets, and return on average tangible common equity. The Company believes that the non‐GAAP financial measures included in this slide presentation allow management and investors to understand and compare results in a more consistent manner for the periods presented. Non‐GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental and not a substitute for the Company’s results reported in accordance with GAAP for the periods presented, and other bank holding companies may define or calculate these measures differently. These non‐GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation and do not purport to be an alternative to analyses of operating results or capital position as reported under GAAP. A reconciliation of these non‐GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure is provided in the Appendix to this slide presentation. 2 THE FIRST BANCSHARES: BUILDING SHAREHOLDER VALUE 3 Our Company We have the track record, scale, liquidity, capital & profitability of a top‐performing community bank Company Overview 1996 Bank Established in Hattiesburg, MS 5th Largest Bank Headquartered in MS STARKVILLE M I S S I S S I P P I L O U I S I A N A A L A B A M A G E O R G I A $6.8bn (2) Assets 18.2% Total Capital Ratio F L O R I D A FBMS Location (97)(2) Source: S&P Global Market Intelligence, Company documents Includes 10 whole bank acquisitions, 2 branch acquisitions and 1 mortgage company acquisition Pro forma for recent acquisition of Beach Bancorp Non‐GAAP Measure ‐‐ refer to appendix for “Non‐GAAP Reconciliation” (1) (2) (3) 58.4% Efficiency Ratio, Operating(3) 54.6% Loans / Deposits 1.24% PTPP ROAA, Operating (3) 13 # of Closed Transactions since 2010 (1) 4 Evolution of Our Franchise December 31, 2009 eveport Jackson Montgomery Columbus March 31, 2022 (1) Birmingham Atlanta COLUMBIA FBMS Branch (95) FBMS LPO (2) Shrev eport Jackson Montgomery Columbus Hattiesburg Baton Rouge Mobile New Orleans Tallahassee on Baton Rouge Mobile New Orleans FBMS Branch (9) Total Assets ($mm) – Organic and Acquisitive Growth (1) $5,153 $3,473 $3,004 $3,264 Tallahassee Jacksonv ille Orlando Tampa $6,816 $6,077 $3,664 $4,284 $681 $181 $500 2011 $721 $181 $540 2012 $941 $370 $571 2013 $503 2010 Source: S&P Global Market Intelligence Data as of 12/31 of each year, respectively; Q1 ’22 data as of 3/31/22 (1) Pro forma for recent acquisition of Beach Bancorp $1,094 $447 $647 $1,145 $447 $698 $1,277 $447 $830 $1,813 $827 $986 $1,924 $2,307 $1,080 $1,166 $1,889 $2,413 $2,532 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 Q1 '22 Acquired Organic 5 Improving Geographic Diversification of our Balance Sheet 2009 Loans by State 2015 Loans by State March 31, 2022 Loans by State Alabama 23% Louisiana 7% Mississippi 100% Mississippi 70% Louisiana 16% Georgia 15% Florida 30% Mississippi 29% Alabama 10% 2009 Deposits by State 2015 Deposits by State March 31, 2022 Deposits by State Alabama 23% Louisiana 4% Mississippi 100% Mississippi 73% Louisiana 14% Georgia 10% Florida 28% Mississippi 33% Alabama 15% Source: S&P Global Market Intelligence, Company documents 3/31/22 data pro forma for the recent acquisition of Beach Bancorp 2009 and 2015 data as of 6/30 6 Expansion into Mississippi’s Golden Triangle PRO FORMA FOOTPRINT ACQUISITION HIGHLIGHTS Starkville MS Jackson Hattiesburg Shreveport LA Baton Rouge New Orleans FBMS Branch (82) FBMS LPO (2) Acquired Branches (7) Huntsville Birmingham AL Atlanta Branches: 7 Montgomery Columbus GA Mobile Destin Pensacola Panama City Beach Albany Moultrie Valdosta Tallahassee Jacksonville FL Total Deposits: ~$451 Million Number of Deposit Accounts: ~17,500 Average Cost of Deposits: 0.22% Average Non‐Time Deposit Account Tenure: 15 Years Aberdeen Monroe Clay West Point Starkville Oktibbeha Columbus Lowndes Gross Loans: ~$42 Million Average Loan Yield: 3.82% Current Branch Personnel: 26 Note: Deposit data as of June 30, 2021 Source: S&P Global Market Intelligence and Company Documents 7 Pro Forma Branch Franchise FBMS (88) FBMS LPO (2) Beach (7) Enhances FBMS’ market position in Fort Walton Beach and Pensacola Establishes FBMS‘ presence in Tampa Source: S&P Global Market Intelligence Historical Performance Over Time Eleven Years of Record Earnings Net Income ($mm) Pre‐tax Pre Provision Income ($mm), Operating (1) $72.0 $60.0 $48.0 $36.0 $24.0 $12.0 $0.0 EPS $64.2 $52.5 $43.7 $21.2 $17.4 $17.6 $17.8 $21.4 $22.1 $20.8 $21.4 $19.4 $20.5 $18.9 $19.3 $2.5 $3.6 $4.2 $6.3 $8.5 $9.7 $10.6 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 Q3 '19 Q4 '19 Q1 '20 Q2 '20 Q3 '20 Q4 '20 Q1 '21 Q2 '21 Q3 '21 Q4 '21 Q1 '22 $0.82 $1.16 $0.96 $1.19 $1.55 $1.57 $1.11 $1.62 $2.55 $2.52 $3.03 PTPP ROAA, Oper.
