The latest update is out from Primis Financial ( (FRST) ).

On December 18, 2025, Primis Financial Corp.’s board of directors reauthorized a stock repurchase program allowing the company to buy back up to 750,000 shares of its common stock between December 18, 2025 and December 18, 2026. The company, which had previously repurchased 79,549 shares at an average price of $10 under an earlier plan, said purchases may be executed in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions or via Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, with the scale and timing of buybacks dependent on share price performance, market conditions, regulatory constraints and available liquidity; the program is discretionary, may be changed or terminated at any time, and does not commit Primis to repurchase a specific number of shares, underscoring flexible capital management rather than a fixed return-of-capital schedule for shareholders.

The most recent analyst rating on (FRST) stock is a Hold with a $12.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Primis Financial stock, see the FRST Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on FRST Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, FRST is a Neutral.

Primis Financial’s overall stock score is driven by strong technical momentum and positive corporate events, such as the sale-leaseback transaction and dividend announcement. However, challenges in financial performance, particularly in revenue generation and cash flow management, along with a high P/E ratio, temper the overall outlook.
