Simmons First National Corporation is a financial holding company that provides banking and other financial products and services through its subsidiaries, primarily Simmons Bank. The company operates in Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Texas. As of December 31, 2025, it reported total consolidated assets of $24.54 billion, total consolidated loans of $17.49 billion, total consolidated deposits of $20.18 billion, and equity capital of $3.42 billion. The company seeks to build shareholder value by focusing on strong asset quality, maintaining strong capital, managing liquidity, improving operational efficiency, and pursuing organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Its business philosophy centers on building strong, deep customer relationships through excellent customer service and integrity in its operations.

The company generates revenue primarily from interest income on loans, fees on deposit and treasury management services, wealth management and trust fees, insurance commissions, and other banking related fees. Interest income arises from commercial and industrial loans, commercial real estate loans, construction loans, consumer loans, and credit card balances. Noninterest income includes service charges on deposit accounts, trust and investment fees, insurance agency commissions, and gains from the sale of loans or securities. The diversified revenue mix helps insulate the company from fluctuations in any single income source and supports steady profitability across economic cycles.

The company operates through the following segments: community banking, commercial banking, and wealth. These segments are supported by Simmons Bank’s various operations divisions, which provide technology, risk management, and administrative functions. Each segment is led by division presidents who report to the chief executive officer of Simmons Bank, ensuring clear accountability and alignment with the overall corporate strategy.

• Community banking: This segment focuses on retail, small to mid size customer relationships and mortgage lending, offering savings, checking, and time deposit products, consumer loans, lines of credit, and ATM and mobile banking services. It also provides overdraft facilities and safe deposit boxes to individual customers. The community banking group emphasizes local decision making and personalized service to build lasting relationships with households and small businesses.

• Commercial banking: This segment serves larger, more complex corporate customers, providing commercial real estate financing, construction loans, commercial and industrial loans, equipment financing, SBA and agricultural finance, corporate credit cards, and treasury management services. It also extends loans for general corporate needs and engages in syndicated lending arrangements. The commercial banking group leverages specialized industry knowledge to meet the financing requirements of manufacturers, real estate developers, and agricultural producers.

• Wealth: This segment addresses investment and trust needs of consumers and businesses, delivering trust, investment, agency, and custodial services, including administration of estates and personal trusts as well as management of investment accounts. The segment works with individual clients seeking personal wealth planning and with corporate clients requiring employee benefit trust administration. It also offers brokerage services through a networking arrangement with a third‑party broker‑dealer.

Simmons First National Corporation holds a regional presence as one of the largest bank holding companies headquartered in Arkansas, competing with other regional banks, national banks, credit unions, and non bank financial service providers. Its competitive advantages stem from strong customer service, a community based mindset, experienced centralized support functions, and a diversified product mix that includes lending, deposit taking, wealth management, and insurance. The company’s long history of successful mergers and acquisitions has expanded its footprint while maintaining disciplined risk management and a solid capital base.

The company serves individuals, small and mid size businesses, large corporate clients, and institutional customers across its footprint, without reliance on any single customer or industry. Its customer base includes retail shoppers, small business owners, real estate developers, agricultural producers, healthcare providers, and manufacturers. Simmons Bank also provides trust and investment services to high net worth individuals and corporate benefit plans. This broad diversification reduces concentration risk and supports stable revenue generation.
