Exhibit 99.1
FS Bancorp, Inc. celebrates 10 years as a NASDAQ listed company with a $0.10 special cash dividend
and the approval of an additional $10 million share repurchase plan
Mountlake Terrace, WA - April 6, 2022 - To
celebrate ten years as a NASDAQ listed company, the Board of Directors (“Board”) of FS Bancorp, Inc. (“FSBW”), the holding company for 1st Security Bank of Washington, today announced a 10 cent ($0.10) per share special cash dividend. This special
dividend in addition to our regular quarterly cash dividend of 20 cents ($0.20) per share will be paid to shareholders of record as of May 12, 2022, and payable on May 26, 2022.
CEO Joe Adams noted, “We are proud of our continued strong performance which we believe demonstrates that a great company culture can lead
to outstanding financial results.”
At the same Board meeting, FSBW’s Board of Directors approved an additional $10 million in share repurchases. The new share repurchase
authorization supplements the current share repurchase plan approved in August 2021 that has $3.8 million remaining for repurchases.
The special dividend and increased share repurchase plan are a result of our strong 2021 financial performance which includes the
following metrics:
- Earnings per diluted share of $4.32 per share in 2021
- Return on Average Equity of 15.74% in 2021
- Return on Average Assets of 1.71% in 2021
- Continued dividend increases since 2013, including a 33% annual increase in 2021 from 2020
- 524,353 shares repurchased in 2021
- Growth in Book Value to $30.75 per share as of December 31, 2021, from $27.67 as of December 31, 2020
FSBW’s strong financial metrics combined with our commitment to building a positive company culture led Bank Director Magazine, in its
2022 Ranking Banking study, to nationally recognize FSBW as the # 1 Community Bank with assets under $5 billion, and the #1 Leadership Team for all banks examined, regardless of size.
