Item 8.01 Other Events.

On October 2, 2013, Century Next Financial Corporation (the "Company") issued a press release announcing the Company’s intention to file a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to deregister its common stock from the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Upon the filing of the Form 15, the Company’s obligations to file certain reports with the SEC, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K, will immediately be suspended.

For additional information, reference is made to the Company's press release dated October 2, 2013, which is included as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference thereto. The press release attached hereto is being furnished to the SEC and shall not be deemed to be "filed" for any purpose except as otherwise provided herein.
