**Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets**

Effective February 12, 2023, HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. ("HomeTrust") completed its previously announced merger with Quantum Capital Corp. ("Quantum"), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 24, 2022 (the "Merger Agreement"), under which Quantum merged with and into HomeTrust (the "Merger"). Quantum was the parent company of Quantum National Bank, which merged with and into HomeTrust Bank.

As a result of the Merger, each share of Quantum common stock outstanding immediately prior to completion of the Merger is being exchanged for $57.54 in cash and HomeTrust common stock ("HomeTrust Common Stock") based on a fixed exchange ratio of 2.3942, with cash in lieu of fractional shares being paid based on the closing price per HomeTrust share on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the day immediately preceding the closing date.

The foregoing description of the Merger and the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, included as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K that HomeTrust filed on July 25, 2022, and incorporated herein by reference. HomeTrust has also agreed to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") a registration statement covering the shares issued in the Merger (the "Registration Shares") within 45 business days after the closing date and cause such registration statement to be effective until the earlier of the date on which all Registration Shares are sold or two years from the date the SEC declared the Registration Statement effective.

**Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers**

In connection with the Merger, HomeTrust will appoint, subject to any legal or regulatory requirements, Dr. Narasimhulu Neelagaru ("Dr. Neel") as a director of HomeTrust and HomeTrust Bank, in June 2023, to serve for a term ending at the annual meeting following his attaining seventy-five (75) years of age. Dr. Neel may serve for up to two additional one-year terms if the Quantum Principal Stockholders (as defined in the Merger Agreement) continue to own five percent or more of the outstanding HomeTrust Common Stock at that time. The Board committees to which Dr. Neel will be appointed have not yet been determined. The appointment of Dr. Neel as a director of HomeTrust was contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

As a director of HomeTrust and HomeTrust Bank, Dr. Neel is expected to be entitled to the same general compensation arrangement as is provided to the other non-employee directors of HomeTrust and HomeTrust Bank. A description of this arrangement is contained under the heading "Director Compensation" in HomeTrust's definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on October 3, 2022 and is incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 8.01 Other Events**

On February 13, 2023, HomeTrust issued a press release announcing the completion of the Merger. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits**

**HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. Announces Completion of Merger with Quantum Capital Corp.**

**ASHEVILLE, N.C., February 13, 2023** — HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: HTBI) ("HomeTrust"), the holding company of HomeTrust Bank, today announced that its merger with Quantum Capital Corp.

On a pro forma basis, the combined entity will hold assets of approximately $4.3 billion, including loans of $3.6 billion and deposits of $3.6 billion.

"We are pleased to announce the completion of our merger with Quantum and can now officially welcome this talented group of bankers to the HomeTrust team," said C. Hunter Westbrook, President and Chief Executive Officer of HomeTrust. "Very early in the process we realized Quantum had a culture similar to ours that is employee first while being deeply committed to enriching our customers and communities, and this belief has only been strengthened over time. We look forward to demonstrating what we can achieve together."

After closing the Transaction, Bryan Cohen, the former President of Quantum and Chief Executive Officer of Quantum National Bank, will serve as the Georgia Market President of HomeTrust Bank, while Dr. Narasimhulu Neelagaru will join the boards of directors of HomeTrust and HomeTrust Bank in June 2023.

As a result of the merger, HomeTrust is paying approximately $33.0 million of cash and issuing 1,374,646 shares of HomeTrust common stock to the shareholders of Quantum. HomeTrust will file within forty-five (45) business days following completion of the Transaction a registration statement covering the resale of all common shares issued in the Transaction, subject to any limitations under Rule 144.

Also, as part of the Transaction, Quantum's subsidiary, Quantum National Bank, has merged with and into HomeTrust's subsidiary, HomeTrust Bank. HomeTrust will continue to operate Quantum National Bank's branch offices under the Quantum National Bank name until the systems conversion scheduled for mid-March 2023.

Raymond James & Associates, Inc. served as financial advisor and Silver Freedman, Taff & Tiernan LLP served as legal counsel to HomeTrust, while Piper Sandler & Co. served as financial advisor and Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP served as legal counsel to Quantum.
