Item 4.01. Engagement of New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

(b) On July 8, 2025, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “ Audit Committee”) of Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc. (the “ Company”) approved the engagement of BDO USA, P. C. (“ BDO”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, effective beginning with the review of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ending June 30, 2025. The Audit Committee’s appointment of BDO marks the conclusion of the Company’s previously disclosed strategic request-for-proposal process, which solicited proposals from accounting firms to provide audit services to the Company as its independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, and during the subsequent interim period through March 31, 2025, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with BDO regarding either (1) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that BDO concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, or (2) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) or a “reportable event” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
