Other borrowings may include federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and borrowings from the Federal Reserve through the FRDW. Southside Bank has three unsecured lines of credit for the purchase of overnight federal funds at prevailing rates with Frost Bank, Amegy Bank, TIB – The Independent Bankers Bank for $40.0 million, $25.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively. There were no federal funds purchased at December 31, 2025 or 2024. To provide more liquidity in response to economic conditions in recent years, the Federal Reserve has encouraged broader use of the discount window. At December 31, 2025, the amount of additional funding the Bank could obtain from the FRDW, collateralized by securities, was approximately $241.8 million. There were $110.0 million in borrowings from the FRDW at December 31, 2025. There were no borrowings from the FRDW at December 31, 2024. Southside Bank has a $5.0 million line of credit with Frost Bank to be used to issue letters of credit, and at December 31, 2025, the line had one outstanding letter of credit for $155,000. Southside Bank currently has two outstanding letters of credit from FHLB held as collateral for loans totaling $6.2 million.
Southside Bank enters into sales of securities under repurchase agreements. These repurchase agreements totaled $98.7 million at December 31, 2025, and $76.4 million at December 31, 2024, and had maturities of less than one year. Repurchase agreements are secured by investment and MBS and are stated at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction.
FHLB borrowings represent borrowings with fixed interest rates ranging from 1.26% to 4.80% (including the effect of interest rate swaps) and with remaining maturities of 5 days to 2.5 years at December 31, 2025.  FHLB borrowings may be collateralized by FHLB stock, nonspecified loans and/or securities.

About Debt Disclosures

Debt disclosures detail a company's borrowing structure — the types of instruments, interest rates, maturity schedule, and covenant restrictions that define its financial obligations and flexibility. This section is essential for assessing refinancing risk, interest rate exposure, and the margin of safety against financial distress.

Key signals: the maturity schedule reveals concentration risk — large maturities within 1-2 years during tight credit markets can force dilutive refinancing or asset sales. Compare the fair value of debt against carrying amount to gauge whether the market views the company's credit risk differently than the balance sheet suggests. Watch covenant compliance disclosures for tightening cushions, especially leverage and interest coverage ratios. Variable-rate debt exposure quantifies sensitivity to interest rate changes. Secured versus unsecured mix affects recovery rates and future borrowing capacity. Compare net debt-to-EBITDA against industry peers and covenant limits to assess financial health.
