CLARK, SCHAEFER, HACKETT & CO.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Plan Administrator and Compensation Committee of the
First Savings Bank Employees' Savings & Profit Sharing Plan
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the First Savings Bank Employees' Savings & Profit Sharing Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2023, and the related statement of
changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended, and the related notes and schedule (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2023, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Plan’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered
with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal
control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures
included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Supplemental Information
The supplemental information contained in the schedule of assets held at end of year has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Plan’s financial statements. The supplemental
information is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and
performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form
and content, is presented in conformity with the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In our opinion, the supplemental information is fairly stated, in
all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Compensation Committee of the
First Savings Bank Employees’ Savings & Profit Sharing Plan
Jeffersonville, Indiana
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the First Savings Bank Employees’ Savings & Profit Sharing Plan (the “Plan”) as of
December 31, 2022, the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2022, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Plan’s financial statements based on our audit. At the date of our audit opinion, we
were a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and were required to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the
applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of
internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures
include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We served as the Plan’s auditor from 2011 through June 28, 2023.

FIRST SAVINGS BANK
EMPLOYEES’ SAVINGS & PROFIT SHARING PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022
(1) DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
The following description of the First Savings Bank Employees’ Savings & Profit Sharing Plan (the “Plan”) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the plan document and
Summary Plan Description for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan, established by First Savings Bank (the “Bank”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Savings Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company”), covering substantially all
employees of the Bank who have completed three months of consecutive service (minimum of 250 hours) and are age 21 or older. Participants must have completed one year of service (minimum of 1,000 hours) to be eligible for all types of Bank
contributions, including safe harbor matching contributions. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”). Pentegra Trust Company is the trustee and administrator of the Plan. The trustee
changed the Plan’s custodian and recordkeeper from Reliance Trust Company to Empower and transferred the Plan assets to Empower in November 2023.
Contributions
Participants may make pre-tax and after-tax Roth elective salary deferrals up to 75% of eligible compensation, as defined in the plan document, subject to limitations imposed by Internal Revenue
Code (“IRC”) regulations. Eligible participants are also permitted to make special pre-tax and Roth catch-up contributions in accordance with IRC regulations and rollover contributions representing distributions from other qualified defined
benefit or contribution plans.
The Bank made safe harbor matching contributions equal to 100% of the first 5% of eligible compensation that each participant contributed to the Plan for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Bank contributions may also include additional discretionary employer profit sharing contributions as determined annually by the Compensation Committee of the Company. No discretionary employer
profit sharing contributions were made for 2023 or 2022.
Effective for employees who become eligible participants on or after January 1, 2017, the Plan automatically withholds 3% of the employee’s pay on a pre-tax basis. Contributions following
auto-enrollment are invested in a Qualified Default Investment Alternative designated by the Bank unless or until the employee selects other Plan investment options. Employees can opt out of the Plan’s automatic enrollment provisions by providing
written notice to the plan administrator. A participant may also withdraw automatic enrollment salary deferral contributions, and earnings thereon, without penalty, within 90 days after the date the first automatic deferral is made.

FIRST SAVINGS BANK
EMPLOYEES’ SAVINGS & PROFIT SHARING PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022
(1 – continued)
Participants direct the investment of their contributions and employer contributions into various investment options offered by the Plan. The Plan currently offers various mutual funds, a
common/collective fund and a unitized common stock fund consisting principally of shares of Company common stock as investment options for participants. Participants may change their investment elections at any time.
Participant Accounts
Each participant's account is credited with participant salary deferrals, Bank contributions and an allocation of plan earnings, and charged with an allocation of plan losses and administrative
expenses. Allocations are based on participant compensation, account balances or specific participant transactions, as defined in the plan document. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the
participant’s vested account.
Vesting
Participants are immediately 100% vested in their contributions and all employer contributions, plus actual earnings thereon.
Payment of Benefits
On termination of service due to death, disability, retirement or other reasons, participants may receive a lump sum distribution in an amount equal to the value of their vested account balance.
The Plan also provides for in-service distributions for participants that have attained age 59½, subject to certain restrictions, or for financial hardships. Separated participants with vested account balances exceeding $5,000 may elect to defer
benefits until reaching normal retirement age. For mandatory distributions that exceed $1,000 but not $5,000, the Plan will roll over the distribution to an individual retirement account unless the participant elects to either receive or roll over
the distribution.
Administrative Expenses
Some administrative expenses are paid by the Bank and some are paid by the Plan. Those that were paid by the Plan are reflected in the accompanying financial statements. Employees of the Bank
perform certain administrative functions for the Plan. Neither the Bank nor its employees receive compensation from the Plan.
(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

FIRST SAVINGS BANK
EMPLOYEES’ SAVINGS & PROFIT SHARING PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022
(2 – continued)
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date. See Note 3 for additional discussion of fair value measurements.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Capital gain distributions
from mutual funds are included in dividend income. Net appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of investments includes the Plan’s gains and losses on investments bought and sold, as well as held during the year.
Management fees and operating expenses charged to the Plan for investments in mutual funds and the common/collective fund are deducted from income earned on a daily basis and are not separately
reflected. Consequently, management fees and operating expenses are reflected as a reduction of the return for these investments.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the plan administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Such
estimates and assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainties, which may result in actual amounts differing from reported amounts.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan invests in various mutual funds, common stock, short-term investment funds and a common/collective fund. The investments are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and
credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with the investments, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investments will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account
balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.
Participants should refer to the Company’s annual and quarterly financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (Form 10-K and Form 10-Q) regarding risks associated with
Company stock.
Payment of Benefits
Benefits are recorded when paid. At December 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no allocated amounts to participants who had elected to withdraw from the Plan, but had not yet been paid.

DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022
(2 – continued)
Concentration of Credit Risk
At December 31, 2023 and 2022, investments in the First Savings Financial Group, Inc. unitized common stock fund totaled 21.6% and 25.9%, respectively, of the Plan’s investments. This stock has
full voting rights.
Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated whether any subsequent events that require recognition or disclosure in the accompanying financial statements and related notes thereto have taken place through June 27,
2024, the date these financial statements were available to be issued.
(3) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, provides the
framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC Topic 820 are described as follows:
| Level 1: |
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that the Plan has the ability to access.
|
| Level 2: |
Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets in inactive markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observed for the asset; or inputs
that are derived principally from or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
|
| Level 3: |
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
|
The Plan uses appropriate valuation techniques based on the available inputs to measure the fair value of its investments. When available, the Plan measures fair value using Level 1 inputs because
they generally provide the most reliable evidence of fair value. Level 2 inputs are used for investments for which Level 1 inputs are not available. Level 3 inputs are used only if Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available. There are no plan
assets requiring the use of Level 3 inputs for the periods presented.

Mutual Funds
The fair value of mutual funds is based on the quoted NAV of the shares as reported by the fund. The mutual funds held by the Plan are open-end mutual funds registered with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission. The funds must publish their daily NAV and transact at that price. The mutual funds held by the Plan are considered to be actively traded.
Common/Collective Fund
Investments in the common/collective fund are valued at the NAV of the units held by the Plan based on the fair value of the assets underlying the fund, as reported by the fund manager. Effective
February 23, 2023, the common/collective fund was merged from the Reliance Trust Company Stable Value Fund Collective Investment Trust Series 25157 into the Reliance MetLife Stable Value Fund Series 25053, a separate fund with similar
characteristics and crediting rates. The fund’s primary investment objective is to preserve principal while generating earnings at rates competitive over time with short-term high quality fixed income investments. NAV is used as a practical
expedient for fair value. This practical expedient would not be used if it is determined to be probable that the fund will sell the investment for an amount different from the reported NAV. Participant transactions (purchases and sales) may occur
daily, and there were no redemption or frequency restrictions on the common/collective fund as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. There were no unfunded commitments related to the common/collective fund investment at December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Gains and losses included in changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, are reported in net appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of
investments.

EMPLOYEES’ SAVINGS & PROFIT SHARING PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022
(4) RELATED PARTY AND PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS
Certain Plan investments are interests in a common/collective fund managed by Reliance Trust Company, the custodian of the Plan’s assets prior to November 2023. The Plan also invests in shares of
Company common stock through the unitized common stock fund, and the Bank is the plan sponsor as defined by the Plan. Transactions in such investments qualify as party-in-interest transactions that are exempt from the prohibited transaction rules
of ERISA.
At December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Plan held 428,410 and 386,712 shares of Company common stock through the unitized common stock fund, respectively. The Plan received $233,015 and $203,511 in
dividends on Company common stock for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. During 2023 and 2022, the Plan purchased 48,983 and 18,790 shares of Company common stock in the open market through the unitized stock fund having a
value of $715,321 and $462,415, respectively. During 2023 and 2022, the Plan sold 7,285 and 30,616 shares of Company common stock in the open market through the unitized common stock fund for total proceeds of $116,842 and $714,358, respectively.
All share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the three-for-one stock split effective September 15, 2021.
(5) PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Bank has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.
In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their employer contribution accounts.
In 2023, the Bank made workforce reductions which, under ERISA, resulted in a partial plan termination. However, given that Plan participants are immediately 100% vested in their contributions and
all employer contributions, there was no material impact to the Plan.
(6) TAX STATUS
The Plan is based on a pre-approved plan, which has received a favorable opinion letter from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) dated June 30, 2020, that the pre-approved plan is designed in
accordance with applicable sections of the IRC. The plan administrator has not separately applied for a determination letter from the IRS. Although the Plan has been amended since receiving the opinion letter, the plan administrator and the
Plan’s tax counsel believe that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC, and therefore believe the Plan is qualified and the related trust is tax exempt. Therefore, no
provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan’s financial statements.
U.S. GAAP requires the plan administrator to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability for any uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon
examination by the IRS. The Plan is subject to routine audits by tax authorities; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.
