FIRST FINANCIAL BANK TO OPEN FIRST FULL-SERVICE BRANCH IN AUSTIN AREA WITH NEW BEE CAVE BRANCH

EmitenTrust.com ABILENE, Texas, Sept. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Board of Directors of First Financial Bank, a subsidiary of First Financial Bankshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: FFIN), has announced its plan to open a new full-service branch in Bee Cave, Texas. This new branch, located at 12101 Bee Caves Rd., is set to open in late October and expands the Company's presence into Central Texas and the greater Austin area while reinforcing its long-term commitment to serving communities across Texas.

First Financial has maintained a mortgage loan production office in Bee Cave since 2020. The new full-service branch marks the next step in the Bank's commitment to Central Texas, allowing First Financial to deepen existing relationships while expanding its reach to serve individuals, families and businesses across the greater Austin market. As the Company's 81st location, the branch will operate under First Financial's regional management structure, providing customers with access to the resources, expertise and support of a strong, well-established banking organization while continuing to deliver personalized, relationship-focused service.

The Bee Cave team is composed of tenured First Financial employees, including several bilingual bankers, who have embraced the opportunity to help lead the Bank's expansion into the Austin area. Under the leadership of Tori Flores, Charles Miller, Irene Green, Jacob Marquez, and Stephen Flores, this branch will serve all communities by providing commercial and consumer lending, retail and treasury services, affordable mortgage lending, home equity loans and interim loans, through a full-service teller lobby, drive-through lanes and a 24-hour deposit-enabled ATM for after-hours banking. 

"We are fortunate to have existing strong business and customer relationships throughout the Austin area, so opening a branch here is a natural next step," said David Bailey, President & CEO of First Financial Bankshares. "This location gives us a home base in the region to deepen those relationships while introducing more people across greater Austin to the way we do banking. Our experienced team of First Financial bankers are well equipped and eager to lead the expansion of our Company into this new market."
