AI summary

What happened, with direct paths to the underlying reporting

First Guaranty Bancshares posted a Q3 2026 net income of $12.0 million ($0.69 per share), aided by a $17.6 million pre-tax gain from selling its Texas operations to Armstrong Bank. The transaction strengthens capital and reduces balance-sheet risk, signaling strategic restructuring. However, much of the quarterly boost stems from a one-time gain, so investors should watch core profitability going forward.
