DALLAS, TX / ACCESS Newswire / January 15, 2026 / Tectonic Financial, Inc. ("Tectonic Financial" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:TECTP), a diversified banking and financial services holding company, today announced its intention to redeem all of its issued and outstanding 9.00% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Series B Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") and, as a result, to delist its Preferred Stock from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC. The Company further intends to withdraw the registration of its Preferred Stock with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").
Redemption of Preferred Stock
There are 1,725,000 shares of Preferred Stock, with an aggregate liquidation preference of $17.25 million, currently outstanding. The Preferred Stock will be redeemed for cash at a redemption price of $10.00 per share plus an amount equal to any declared and unpaid dividends (without regard to any undeclared dividends) to, but excluding, the redemption date, or February 17, 2026 (the "Redemption Price").
The redemption of the Preferred Stock is conditioned upon the Company obtaining the requisite funding to pay the Redemption Price (the "Condition"). In the Company's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as the Condition is satisfied, or the redemption of the Preferred Stock may not occur in the event that the Condition shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. Further, the Condition may be waived in the sole and absolute discretion of the Company.
Upon redemption of the Preferred Stock, no shares of Preferred Stock will remain outstanding and all rights with respect to such Preferred Stock will cease and terminate, except the right to payment of the redemption price.
Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, LLC, the Company's transfer agent, will serve as the redemption agent.
Nasdaq Delisting and SEC Deregistration
In connection with the redemption of the Preferred Stock and subject to the Condition, the Company intends to file a Form 25 with the SEC to remove its Preferred Stock from listing on The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC and to deregister its stock under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act on or about February 17, 2026. The Company expects the last trading day of its shares of Preferred Stock on The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC will be on or about February 17, 2026.
The Company intends to file a Form 15 with the SEC on or about February 27, 2026 to terminate the registration of its Preferred Stock under section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. The obligation of the Company to file periodic reports with the SEC, including reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, will be suspended immediately upon filing of the Form 15. Once the Form 15 is effective, which is expected to occur within 90 days of filing, or May 28, 2026, the Company will no longer be a public reporting company, and its obligations to file other reports with the SEC will also be suspended.
The decision of the Company's board of directors to delist and deregister its Preferred Stock was based on numerous factors, including the redemption of the Preferred Stock, as well as the significant cost savings of no longer filing periodic reports with the SEC, and reductions in accounting fees, legal fees and other costs. The Company's financial statements will continue to be audited by an independent accounting firm. T Bank, N.A. will continue to report detailed quarterly financial results to its primary federal regulator, which are publicly available.
