Key Details

• Filing date: May 1, 2026 (Form 8-K, Item 7.01 and 9.01).
• Exhibit provided: Exhibit 99.1 — First Western Financial investor presentation.
• Use: Presentation may be presented or modified at investor/analyst meetings during fiscal year ending Dec. 31, 2026.

Why It Matters This 8-K makes management’s investor presentation available to the public and confirms it may be used in investor and analyst outreach during 2026. For investors, the filing is a signal that updated corporate materials are being distributed, but it does not itself report earnings, executive changes, or other financial results. Because the material is furnished (not “filed”), it carries different legal liability and is not automatically incorporated into other SEC filings.
