## Exhibit 99.1

![](s4filingjune32026001.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1 For Immediate Release: June 3, 2026 Attention: Business Editors VERSABANK ANNOUNCES PUBLIC FILING OF FORM S-4 REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH THE SEC LONDON, ON/CNW – VersaBank (or the "Bank") (TSX: VBNK; NASDAQ: VBNK), a North American leader in business-to-business digital banking, as well as technology solutions for cybersecurity, today, announced it has publicly filed a Form S-4 registration statement (File No. 333-296444) (the "Registration Statement") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in connection with the Bank's proposed plan to realign its corporate structure to a standard U.S. bank framework (the "Reorganization"). Specifically, the Reorganization, among other things, will cause Versa Bancorp, a new Delaware corporation (the "Parent") to become the holding company of VersaBank and VersaBank USA National Association. The Registration Statement has not been declared effective, and a result, the information contained therein is subject to change. Upon the Registration Statement being declared effective by the SEC, the Bank intends to convene a special meeting of shareholders at which it will seek approval of the Reorganization. In addition to the approval of shareholders, the completion of the Reorganization remains subject to various regulatory approvals, including approval by the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions and Ministry of Finance in Canada and the Federal Reserve Board in the United States. There can be no assurance that VersaBank will receive shareholder or regulatory approval in a timely manner, if at all. "The filing of this S-4 Registration Statement is a critical milestone in our path to fully realizing the potential of VersaBank and our multiple opportunities to create significant enduring value for our shareholders," said David Taylor, Founder and President, VersaBank. The Reorganization is intended to enhance shareholder value over the long term by, among other things, increasing investor familiarity through U.S. domestic company reporting requirements and potential future index inclusion, and enabling VersaBank to compete effectively in raising the capital necessary to implement its strategic plans. ABOUT VERSABANK VersaBank is a North American bank with a difference. Federally chartered in both Canada and the U.S., VersaBank has a branchless, digital, business-to-business model based on its proprietary state-of-the-art technology that enables it to profitably address underserved segments of the banking industry in a significantly risk mitigated manner. Because VersaBank obtains substantially all of its deposits and undertakes the majority of its funding activities electronically through financial intermediary partners, it benefits from significant operating leverage that drives efficiency and return on common equity. In August 2024, VersaBank launched its unique Structured Receivable Program funding solution for point-of-sale finance companies, which has been highly successful in Canada for over 15 years, to the underserved multi-trillion-dollar U.S. market. VersaBank also owns Minnesota- based DRT Cyber Inc., a North American leader in the provision of cyber security services to address the rapidly growing volume of cyber threats challenging financial institutions, multi-national corporations and government entities. Through DRT Cyber Inc., VersaBank owns proprietary intellectual property and technology to enable the
