EXPLANATORY NOTE

      This current report on Form 8-K/A, Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by FS Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) on May 29, 2025 (the “Original Form 8-K”). The Original Form 8-K reported the final voting results of the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders held on May 22, 2025 (the “Annual Meeting”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the decision of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) regarding how frequently it will conduct future stockholder advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. No other changes have been made to the Original Form 8-K.

Item 5.07  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

          As previously reported in the Original Form 8-K, in a non-binding, advisory vote on the frequency of vote on executive compensation held at the Annual Meeting, the majority of the Company’s shareholders voted in favor of an annual vote on executive compensation. The Board has considered the outcome of this advisory vote and it was determined, as was recommended by the Board with respect to this proposal in the Company’s proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, that the Company will hold future say on pay votes on an annual basis until the occurrence of the next advisory vote on the frequency of the vote on executive compensation.

SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
