- Net income increased by 6% from the prior quarter, reaching $18.6 million.

- Increased competition in the market could impact FSBC's ability to maintain its growth trajectory.
- Ongoing global economic uncertainties, such as the Iran conflict, have triggered volatility in interest rates, posing potential risks.
