On October 16, 2024, MetroCity Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) announced the declaration of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.23 per share on its common stock. This dividend is payable November 8, 2024, to shareholders of record as of October 30, 2024.

On October 16, 2024, the Company announced the continuation of its share repurchase program that expired on September 30, 2024 (“Prior Share Repurchase Plan”), and authorized the Company to repurchase up to 925,250 shares of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, which is the number of remaining shares authorized for repurchase from the Prior Share Repurchase Plan. The share repurchase program will begin on October 17, 2024 and end on September 30, 2025. The repurchases will be made in compliance with all Securities and Exchange Commission rules, including Rule 10b-18, and other legal requirements and may be made in part under Rule 10b5-1 plans, which permits stock repurchases when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so. Repurchases can be made from time-to-time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions depending on market and/or other conditions. The repurchase program may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time and does not obligate the Company to purchase any shares of its common stock.

A copy of the press release announcing the cash dividend and continuation of the share repurchase program is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
