    A decline in our stock price or expected future cash flows, or a material adverse change in our results of operations or prospects, could result in impairment of our goodwill.

    A significant and sustained decline in our stock price and market capitalization below book value, a significant decline in our expected future cash flows, a significant adverse change in the business climate, slower growth rates or other factors could result in impairment of our goodwill. At December 31, 2025, our goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets totaled approximately $1.9 billion. If we were to conclude that a write-down of our goodwill is necessary, then the appropriate charge would likely cause a material loss. Any significant loss would adversely impact the capacity of Pinnacle Bank to pay dividends to Pinnacle Financial without seeking prior regulatory approval, which could adversely affect Pinnacle Financial's ability to pay required interest payments on its outstanding indebtedness or to continue to pay dividends to its common and preferred shareholders.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
    The price of our capital stock may be volatile or may decline.

    The trading price of our capital stock may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, many of which are outside our control. In addition, the stock market is subject to fluctuations in trading volumes that affect the market prices of the shares of many companies. These broad market fluctuations could adversely affect the market price of our capital stock. Among the factors that could affect the price of the shares of our and New Pinnacle's common stock and the depositary shares representing fractional interests in our Series B Preferred Stock and New Pinnacle's Series C Preferred Stock are: –actual or anticipated quarterly fluctuations in our results of operations and financial condition;–changes in revenue or earnings estimates or publication of research reports and recommendations by financial analysts;–failure to meet analysts' or our own published estimates regarding earnings and the various financial measures that make up our earnings;–speculation in the press or investment community;–strategic actions by us or our competitors;–actions by institutional shareholders;–fluctuations in the stock price and operating results of our competitors;–general market conditions and, in particular, developments related to market conditions affecting the financial services industry;–market perceptions about the innovation economy, including levels of funding or "exit" activities of companies in the industries we serve;–proposed or adopted regulatory changes or developments;–changes in the political climate;–fallout from rising geopolitical tensions around the world, including the ongoing hostilities in Ukraine and the Middle East;–market reactions to social media messages or posts;–anticipated or pending investigations, proceedings or litigation that, directly or indirectly, involve or affect us; and –domestic and international economic and social factors unrelated to our performance. The trading price of the shares of our and New Pinnacle's common stock and the depositary shares representing fractional interests in our Series B Preferred Stock and New Pinnacle's Series C Preferred Stock and the value of our other securities has in the past depended, and may in the future depend, on many factors, which may change from time to time, including, without limitation, our financial condition, performance, creditworthiness and prospects, and future sales of our equity or equity-related securities. In some cases, the markets have produced downward pressure on stock prices and credit availability for certain issuers without regard to those issuers' underlying financial strength. A significant decline in our stock price could result in substantial losses for individual shareholders and could lead to costly and disruptive securities litigation, as well as the loss of key employees.

    We and/or the holders of certain types of our securities could be adversely affected by unfavorable ratings from rating agencies.

    At December 31, 2025, various ratings agencies regularly evaluate Pinnacle Financial and Pinnacle Bank, and their ratings of our company and certain of our debt and equity securities were based on a number of factors, including our financial strength as well as factors not entirely within our control, including conditions affecting the financial services industry generally. New Pinnacle will be subject to similar ratings agency evaluations. There can be no assurance that adverse changes in our published ratings will not occur in the future, which could adversely affect the cost and other terms upon which we are able to obtain funding, and the way in which we are perceived in the capital markets. Actual or anticipated changes, or downgrades in published credit ratings, including any announcement that the ratings are under review for a downgrade, could affect the market value and liquidity of our securities, increase our borrowing costs and negatively impact our profitability. Additionally, a downgrade of the published credit rating of any particular security issued by us or our subsidiaries could negatively affect the ability of the holders of that security to sell the securities and the prices at which any such securities may be sold.

    An investment in the capital stock of a bank holding company is not an insured deposit and is not guaranteed by the FDIC.

    An investment in the capital stock of a bank holding company is not a bank deposit and, therefore, is not insured against loss or guaranteed by the FDIC, any other deposit insurance fund or by any other public or private entity. An investment in the capital stock of a bank holding company is inherently risky for the reasons described herein and shareholders of such a company will bear the risk of loss if the value or market price of that capital stock is adversely affected.

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment. They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result. It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
How do companies disclose their risk factors?
Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process. Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”. Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report. According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing. You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector. Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements. A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
