    Explanatory Note 
     
    This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Investar Holding Corporation (“Investar”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 6, 2026 (the “Original Report”) in connection with the consummation on January 1, 2026 of Investar’s previously announced acquisition of Wichita Falls Bancshares, Inc. (“WFB”), the holding company for First National Bank (the “Transaction”).
     
    This Amendment amends and supplements the Original Report solely to provide the financial statements and pro forma financial information relating to the merger required by Items 9.01(a) and 9.01(b) of Form 8-K and should be read in conjunction with the Original Report. This Amendment does not include other updates or amendments to the Original Report. The pro forma financial information included in this Amendment has been presented for informational purposes only, as required by Form 8-K. It does not purport to represent the actual results of operations that Investar and WFB would have achieved had the companies been combined during the periods presented in the pro forma financial information and is not intended to project the future financial results and results of operations that the combined company may achieve after completion of the Transaction. In addition, the fair value assessments presented in the pro forma financial information are preliminary assessments, as the purchase accounting entries have not yet been finalized, and are based upon available information and certain assumptions, which Investar believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions within the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
     
    Item 9.01  Financial Statements and Exhibits

        The consolidated balance sheets of WFB as of September 30, 2025 (unaudited) and December 31, 2024, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, together with the notes thereto, were previously filed as part of Investar’s Current Report on Form 8-K (File No. 001-36522) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 14, 2025, and are incorporated herein by reference.
           
    (b)   Pro forma financial information.
