Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Effective July 9, 2026, the employment of Mr. Kirk D. Jensen with the registrant and its wholly owned subsidiary First Interstate Bank as Executive Vice President and General Counsel/Corporate Secretary was terminated involuntarily and without cause under his employment agreement with the registrant and its subsidiary, a copy of which was filed as an exhibit to the registrant’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 26, 2026, and is incorporated herein by reference. The registrant expects to conduct a national search for a replacement for this role, which role is expected to be performed by the registrant’s other in-house lawyers until a successor is appointed. The employment termination is not the result of any disagreement with the registrant or its subsidiary over any of their financial reporting, operations, policies or practices, or any other matter.
