AFBI: 25-NSE · delisting

A Form 25 (25-NSE) was filed on August 7, 2026 to remove the common stock of Affinity Bancshares, Inc. from listing and registration on a national securities exchange under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act. Upon effectiveness, AFBI shares cease trading on the exchange and the company's Section 12(b) reporting obligation for the security terminates. Form 25 filings of this kind are most commonly filed by an exchange following completion of a merger or acquisition in which public shareholders receive cash or other deal consideration. For AFBI holders this is the terminal administrative step in the process: the filing itself contains no financial figures or transaction terms, so shareholders should refer to the company's earlier merger-related filings for details on the consideration they receive.
