  11. Executive Summary

    | Pay for performance, minimum performance requirements and capped payouts | Our annual incentives require minimum levels of performance before amounts are earned and have a cap on maximum payouts. More than one-half of our chief executive officer’s annual equity awards are performance-based and one-half of the annual equity awards to other executive officers are performance-based. | | Appropriate risk-taking | We set challenging, yet achievable performance goals that are centered around our internal financial plan, which we believe will not encourage risk taking outside the range of risk inherent in our business. | | Clawback provisions | Our annual incentives and equity-based awards are subject to clawback if we are required to restate our financial results. | | Limited perquisites | Other than providing Mr. Westbrook with an automobile allowance and reimbursing Mr. Sprink for country club dues, we have not provided the NEOs with any perquisites or other personal benefits. | | No golden-parachute excise tax gross-ups | We have not entered into any agreements that provide a golden parachute excise tax gross-up in the event of a change in control. |

  12. Executive Summary

    | “Double-trigger” severance benefits in the event of a change in control | In the event of a change in control, the payment of severance benefits to the NEOs under their employment (Messrs. Westbrook and VunCannon) and change in control severance (Ms. Powell, Mr. Sprink and Ms. Pelletier) agreements are set to a “double trigger.” This means that these severance benefits will not be paid unless there is also a qualifying termination of employment upon or after the change in control. | | No repricing or exchanges of underwater stock options | Our 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan and our 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan both prohibit the repricing or exchange of underwater stock options without stockholder approval. | | Significant stock ownership requirement | Our executive officers and directors are required to accumulate and hold our common stock equal to a multiple of base salary (three times base salary for the chief executive officer and one times base salary for each of the other NEOs) or annual Board retainer (five times annual retainer for each non-employee director). | | No hedging or pledging | Our executive officers and directors are prohibited from hedging or pledging our securities. | | Annual say on pay vote | The Company both seeks and values stockholder feedback and holds a say on pay vote every year. |

  13. Fiscal 2024 Executive Compensation Program in Detail

    Annual Incentives. Under the Senior Leadership Incentive Plan, participating executive officers are generally eligible to earn a cash bonus ranging from 50% to 150% of their targeted incentive award opportunities based on the extent to which certain weighted performance goals have been achieved relative to a targeted level of performance. Executive officers receive a payout of 50% of their targeted incentive award opportunity if actual performance under a performance goal is at the threshold (minimum) level of performance, 100% of their targeted incentive award opportunity if actual performance is at the target level of performance, and 150% of their targeted incentive award opportunity if actual performance is at or above the stretch (maximum) level of performance, subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee to modify awards. Interpolation is used to calculate incentive payouts when performance falls between threshold and stretch. Set forth below is a summary of the award opportunities for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 under the Senior Leadership Incentive Plan for the NEOs. Mr. VunCannon’s targeted incentive award opportunity as a percentage of base salary was increased from 30% to 40% in conjunction with his increase in base salary effective August 26, 2024.

  21. Fiscal 2024 Executive Compensation Program in Detail

    The Senior Leadership Incentive Plan document contains a clawback provision, which provides that if we are required to restate our financial statements due to our material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirement, a participant must, unless otherwise determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, reimburse us to the extent any incentive payment to the participant was calculated based on financial results that were required to be restated. This is in addition to the mandatory clawback policy we were required to adopt as an exchange-listed company, which we did on November 7, 2023. Equity-Based Awards. Equity-based awards, which are currently granted under the Company’s 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan, are designed to align the interests of award recipients with the interests of our stockholders by providing award recipients with the opportunity to share in the long-term appreciation, if any, in the Company’s stock price which may occur after their awards are granted. On February 11, 2024, the NEOs were each granted performance-based restricted stock units, with performance measured by the Company’s pre-tax, pre-provision income to average assets as compared to a peer index over the three-year period ending December 31, 2026. Payout will range from 25% of the target number of shares for performance at the 35th percentile to 150% of the target number of shares for performance at or above the 70th percentile. The following table shows the target number of shares underlying the performance-based restricted stock units awarded on February 11, 2024 to the NEOs, and the fair value of such awards, as determined under ASC 718, on the grant date:

  23. Fiscal 2024 Executive Compensation Program in Detail

    On February 11, 2024, the NEOs were also awarded shares of restricted stock with time-based vesting. These awards are scheduled to vest in five equal annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date. The following table shows the number of shares awarded and the fair value of such awards, as determined under ASC 718, on the grant date:

  25. Other Compensation Practices, Policies and Guidelines

    Other Compensation Practices, Policies and Guidelines Equity Grant Practices. Annual equity awards are typically granted to executive officers on or about February 11th of each year and may also be made in conjunction with an officer’s hiring or promotion. Non-employee directors were previously granted annual equity awards on or about February 11th of each year. As a result of the change in the Company’s fiscal year-end from June 30th to December 31st, which became effective January 1, 2024, awards to non-employee directors are now granted on or about May 31st of each year. The Compensation Committee (which approves equity awards to executive officers) and the Board (which approves equity awards to non-employee directors) do not take material non-public information into account when determining the timing and terms of equity awards, and we have not timed the disclosure of material non-public information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation. Stock Ownership Guidelines. Effective September 1, 2017, we adopted stock ownership guidelines applicable to our directors and executive officers in order to further align their interests with the interests of our stockholders. The minimum levels of common stock ownership under the guidelines are as follows: Chief Executive Officer – three times base salary; other executive officers – one times base salary; and non-employee directors – five times annual Board retainer. Shares qualifying for purposes of the guidelines include shares owned directly, shares owned indirectly in which the director or executive officer has a pecuniary interest, vested and unvested shares of time-based restricted stock, and shares underlying vested and unvested time-based restricted stock units. Unearned performance shares awarded to executive officers and unexercised stock options that are vested and in-the-money do not qualify for purposes of the guidelines. Our directors and executive officers are required to satisfy their minimum levels of ownership by the end of the five-year period commencing on the next January 1st following their appointment or election as a director or hiring or designation as an executive officer. Progress toward, and compliance with, the minimum levels of ownership is assessed following the end of each fiscal year, with the value of stock holdings based on the closing price of our common stock on the last trading day of the applicable fiscal year (referred to as the “determination date”). If an individual does not meet the guidelines as of the applicable determination date, then until he or she meets the guidelines, he or she must retain 50 percent of his or her vested full value shares of common stock acquired as equity compensation after the determination date and is prohibited from selling shares acquired after the determination date upon exercise of stock options, other than shares sold for the purpose of paying the option exercise price and covering any tax obligation. As of December 31, 2024, all directors and executive officers either satisfied or were progressing toward their minimum levels of ownership, as applicable. Violations of the guidelines by executive officers may result in adjustments to incentive-based compensation, including a requirement to receive incentive compensation in the form of Company common stock or the loss of future equity grants. The Company’s Board of Directors has the discretion to enforce the guidelines on a case-by-case basis, including the development of alternative guidelines to avoid the imposition of a severe hardship upon an individual director or executive officer. Anti-Hedging and Pledging Policy. Our executive officers and directors are subject to a policy that specifically prohibits: 1) directly or indirectly engaging in hedging or monetization transactions, through transactions in the Company’s securities or through the use of financial instruments designed for such purpose; 2) engaging in short sale transactions in the Company’s securities; and 3) pledging the Company’s securities as collateral for a loan, including through the use of traditional margin accounts with a broker. Deferred Compensation Plan. Under HomeTrust Bank’s Deferred Compensation Plan, directors and a select group of employees can elect to defer a portion of their cash compensation. Mr. VunCannon is the only NEO who participated in this plan during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. See “– Deferred Compensation Plan.” Executive Medical Care Plan. HomeTrust Bank maintains an Executive Medical Care Plan (the “EMCP”), which is a nonqualified, deferred compensation plan under which certain key employees are given the opportunity to contribute toward, and to receive employer contributions toward, certain health and long-term care benefits, including the payment of health and long-term care plan premiums and the reimbursement of medical expenses. Mr. VunCannon is the only NEO who participated in the EMCP during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. For additional information regarding the EMCP and the EMCP benefits of Mr. VunCannon, see “– Executive Medical Care Plan.” Executive Supplemental Retirement Income Plan (SERP). Under HomeTrust Bank’s Executive Supplemental Retirement Income Plan (the “SERP”), a participating executive is entitled to receive an annual supplemental retirement income benefit as specified in his or her joinder agreement to the SERP master agreement, payable monthly, commencing on his or her benefit eligibility date or on the date specified in his or her joinder agreement. Unless a different date is specified in the executive’s joinder agreement, the benefit eligibility date is the first day of the month next following the later of the month in which the executive attains age 55 or separates from service with the Bank (subject to a six-month delay for employees subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A) for any reason other than cause. Mr. VunCannon is the only NEO who participated in the SERP during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Both the SERP and the Director Emeritus Plan were established by HomeTrust Bank when it was a mutual institution to compensate senior executives and directors for their service to HomeTrust Bank in recognition of the fact that equity incentive plans are not available to mutual institutions. The Company has fully accrued for the expense associated with the present values of the accumulated benefits under the SERP and the Director Emeritus Plan. For additional information regarding the SERP and the specific terms of the SERP benefits of Mr. VunCannon, see “– Executive Supplemental Retirement Income Plan.” KSOP. Effective July 1, 2015, the HomeTrust Bank 401(k) plan and the employee stock ownership plan (the “ESOP”) were combined to form the HomeTrust Bank KSOP (the “KSOP”). Participation in the 401(k) component of the KSOP is available to all of our employees who meet minimum eligibility requirements. This plan allows our employees to save money for retirement in a tax-advantaged manner. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, we matched employee contributions, to the extent allowed under qualified plan limitations, fifty cents on the dollar up to 6% of compensation. Our contributions for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 under the 401(k) component of this plan to the NEOs are reflected as compensation for that period in the Summary Compensation Table under the “All Other Compensation” column.

  26. Other Compensation Practices, Policies and Guidelines

    The ESOP was established in connection with our mutual-to-stock conversion in 2012. The ESOP trust purchased shares of HomeTrust Bancshares common stock in the conversion using the proceeds of a loan from HomeTrust Bancshares. This borrowing is repaid over a period of 20 years using contributions from HomeTrust Bank to the trust fund. As each payment of principal and interest is made on the loan, a percentage of HomeTrust Bancshares common stock is allocated to eligible employees’ plan accounts, typically on an annual basis as of the end of the plan year. The ESOP component of the KSOP gives eligible employees an equity interest in HomeTrust Bancshares, thereby aligning their interests with the interests of our stockholders, and an additional retirement benefit in the form of HomeTrust Bancshares common stock. The allocations made for the plan years ended December 31, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 under the ESOP component of the KSOP to the NEOs are reflected as compensation for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, the six-month transition period ended December 31, 2023 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, respectively, in the Summary Compensation Table under the “All Other Compensation” column. Other Employee Benefits. Other benefits, in which all employees generally may participate, include the following: medical and dental insurance coverage, vision care coverage, group life insurance coverage and long- and short-term disability insurance coverage. HomeTrust Bank reimburses employees with salaries in excess of $100,000 for the premium paid for long-term disability insurance. Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits. Other than providing Mr. Westbrook with an automobile allowance and reimbursing Mr. Sprink for country club dues, we did not provide the NEOs with any perquisites or other personal benefits during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Employment and Change in Control Severance Agreements. The Company is a party to amended and restated employment agreements with Messrs. Westbrook and VunCannon and change in control severance agreements with Ms. Powell, Mr. Sprink and Ms. Pelletier. These agreements are intended to be closely aligned with market-based terms and best practices in the executive compensation area. They require a “double trigger” in order for any payments or benefits to be provided to the executive in connection with or following a change in control – in other words, both a change in control and an involuntary termination of employment (which includes a voluntary termination by the executive following a material reduction in his duties, responsibilities or benefits) must occur. The purpose of providing the change in control payments is to attract and retain top level executives of the highest caliber and mitigate the risk to these executives that their employment will be involuntarily terminated in the event we are acquired. At the same time, a change in control, by itself, will not automatically trigger a payout, as our intention is to induce the executive to remain employed following a change in control so long as the acquiror so desires without a material reduction in the executive’s duties, responsibilities or benefits. For additional information, see “Employment Agreements with Messrs. Westbrook and VunCannon” and “Change in Control Severance Agreements with Ms. Powell, Mr. Sprink and Ms. Pelletier.”

  32. Employment Agreements with Messrs. Westbrook and VunCannon and Change in Control Severance Agreements with Ms. Powell, Mr. Sprink and Ms. Pelletier

    Employment Agreements with Messrs. Westbrook and VunCannon and Change in Control Severance Agreements with Ms. Powell, Mr. Sprink and Ms. Pelletier Employment Agreements with Messrs. Westbrook and VunCannon. Effective September 11, 2018, the Company entered into amended and restated employment agreements with Messrs. Westbrook and VunCannon. The employment agreement with Mr. Westbrook provides for an initial term that ended on September 11, 2021, and the employment agreement with Mr. VunCannon provides for an initial term that ended on September 11, 2020. The term of each agreement extends by one year on September 11th of each year (beginning September 11, 2019), provided that the Company has not given written notice to the contrary to the executive within a specified period before such date and the executive has not received an unsatisfactory performance review by the Board of Directors of the Company or the Bank. In conjunction with his promotion to Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mr. Westbrook’s employment agreement was amended to increase his base salary to $550,000, effective September 1, 2022. Mr. VunCannon’s employment agreement provides for a minimum annual base salary of not less than his base salary as in effect on the effective date of the agreement. Each employment agreement entitles the executive to participate in an equitable manner with all other executive officers of the Company and the Bank in such performance-based and discretionary bonuses, if any, as are authorized by the Boards of Directors of the Company and the Bank, and to participate in, to the same extent as executive officers of the Company and the Bank generally, all retirement and other employee benefits and any fringe benefits, and such other benefits as the Board of Directors may provide in its discretion. Each employment agreement provides that if the executive is involuntarily terminated, other than at the time of or within 12 months following a change in control of the Company or the Bank, he will receive (i) monthly payments of one-twelfth of his cash compensation for the remaining term of the agreement, (ii) continuation of specified health insurance benefits for the executive and his dependents until the expiration of the remaining term of the agreement, and (iii) continuation of specified other insurance benefits until the expiration of the remaining term of the agreement. Each employment agreement further provides that if the executive is involuntarily terminated at the time of or within 12 months following a change in control of the Company or the Bank, then in lieu of the benefits described in the immediately preceding sentence, the executive will receive (i) a lump sum cash amount equal to three times his cash compensation, (ii) continuation of specified health insurance benefits for the executive and his dependents until the three-year anniversary of the date of termination, and (iii) continuation of specified other insurance benefits until the three-year anniversary of the date of termination. In addition, each employment agreement provides that the executive will either receive the full amount of these change in control severance payments or be cut back to the extent such payments would, or together with other payments would, be nondeductible under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, whichever results in a greater after-tax benefit with the executive paying any applicable excise tax. Each employment agreement provides that if the executive dies while employed under the agreement, his estate or designated beneficiary will be entitled to receive: (i) a lump sum equal to the executive’s cash compensation through the last day of calendar month in which his death occurred, plus the greater of (A) an additional three months of the executive’s cash compensation or (B) if the executive died within six months prior to or 12 months following a change in control of the Company or the Bank, a lump sum cash amount equal to three times the executive’s cash compensation; and (ii) the amounts of any benefits or awards which were earned with respect to the fiscal year in which the executive died and which the executive would have been entitled to receive had he remained employed, and the prorated amount of any bonus or incentive compensation for such fiscal year to which the executive would have been entitled had he remained employed. Each employment agreement also provides that if the Company terminates the executive’s employment after having established that the executive has incurred a disability, then after exhaustion of all paid time off days allocated for the calendar year, the Company will pay to the executive monthly one-twelfth of his cash compensation for the remaining term of the agreement, reduced by the proceeds of any disability plan then in effect. If the executive’s employment is terminated on account of disability during the one year commencing on the effective date of a change in control of the Company or the Bank, he will receive his change in control severance payment and benefits as provided under his employment agreement. Change in Control Severance Agreements with Ms. Powell, Mr. Sprink and Ms. Pelletier. The Company has entered into change in control severance agreements with Ms. Powell, Mr. Sprink and Ms. Pelletier. Ms. Powell’s agreement provides for an initial term that ended on September 11, 2023, Mr. Sprink’s agreement provides for an initial term that ended on September 11, 2024 and Ms. Pelletier’s agreement provides for an initial term that ended on September 11, 2023. The term of each agreement extends by one year on September 11th of each year (beginning September 11, 2022, in the case of Ms. Powell’s agreement and Ms. Pelletier’s agreement, and beginning September 11, 2023, in the case of Mr. Sprink’s agreement), provided that the Company has not given written notice to the contrary to the executive within a specified period before such date and the executive has not received an unsatisfactory performance review. Each agreement provides that if the executive is involuntarily terminated at the time of or within 12 months following a change in control of the Company or the Bank, the executive will receive (i) a lump sum cash amount equal to two times the executive’s cash compensation and (ii) specified health insurance benefits for the executive and his or her dependents. Each agreement further provides that these change in control severance payments are subject to reduction to the extent payments to the executive (whether under the agreement or otherwise) would be nondeductible under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. For purposes of the employment agreements with Messrs. Westbrook and VunCannon and the change in control severance agreements with Ms. Powell, Mr. Sprink and Ms. Pelletier, the term “involuntary termination” includes a material diminution in the executive’s duties, responsibilities or benefits, and the term “cash compensation” is defined as the highest annual base salary rate paid to the executive at any time during his or her employment by the Company plus the higher of (i) the executive’s annual bonus paid during the year immediately preceding the date of termination or (ii) the executive’s target bonus for the year in which the date of termination occurs, in each case including any salary or bonus amounts deferred by the executive. The Company’s obligation to pay severance or provide benefits under these agreements is expressly conditioned upon the executive executing (and not revoking) a general release of claims.

  38. Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment or Change in Control

    Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment or Change in Control The following tables summarize the approximate value of the termination payments and benefits that the NEOs would have received if their employment had been terminated on December 31, 2024 under the circumstances shown. The tables exclude (i) amounts accrued through December 31, 2024 that would be paid in the normal course of continued employment, such as accrued but unpaid salary, and (ii) account balances under HomeTrust Bank’s KSOP, Deferred Compensation Plan, EMCP and SERP. Mr. VunCannon is fully vested in his account balances under the Deferred Compensation Plan, the EMCP and the SERP and the forms and amounts of his benefits under those plans would not be enhanced by a termination of employment with HomeTrust Bank or a change in control. Mr. VunCannon is the only NEO who participated in the Deferred Compensation Plan, the EMPC and the SERP during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. If Mr. VunCannon is terminated for cause, he will forfeit all benefits under the SERP and will generally forfeit the right to receive any further benefits under the EMCP that are not attributable to compensation he previously deferred. For information regarding the benefits of Mr. VunCannon under the Deferred Compensation Plan, the EMCP and the SERP, see “– Deferred Compensation Plan,” “– Executive Medical Care Plan” and “– Executive Supplemental Retirement Income Plan.”

Westbrook and VunCannon and Change in Control Severance Agreements with Ms. Powell, Mr. Sprink and Ms. Pelletier,” for the remaining term of Mr. Westbrook’s employment agreement, assuming that Mr. Westbrook’s employment is, on December 31, 2024, “involuntarily terminated” but not at the time of or within 12 months following a change in control and that the then-remaining term of Mr. Westbrook’s employment agreement is not renewed and ends on December 31, 2027. For purposes of the above table, Mr. Westbrook’s annual “cash compensation” is calculated as $1,092,118, and the annual amount of his health and other insurance benefits is calculated at $22,182. | | | | | | (2) | Represents the value of acceleration of vesting of in-the-money unvested stock options, based on the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on December 31, 2024 of $33.68 and the exercise price of the options of $31.35 with respect to 6,000 option shares, and the value of acceleration of unvested restricted stock awards and performance-based restricted stock units, based on the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on December 31, 2024 of $33.68.

All unvested stock options and restricted stock awards vest upon a change in control, regardless of whether employment is terminated, as well as upon termination of employment due to death or disability, regardless of whether a change in control occurs. Upon termination of employment prior to a change in control due to death, disability, retirement, involuntary termination or resignation for good reason, a prorated portion of the performance shares underlying the performance-based restricted stock units may become earned and vested at the end of the performance period based on the number of months’ service during the performance period. In the event of a change in control prior to the end of the performance period, the performance shares may be deemed earned based on a prorated performance goal reflecting the shortened performance period, but without proration of the number of performance shares. | | | | | | (3) | Represents the amount payable to Mr. Westbrook under his employment agreement in the event his employment is “involuntarily terminated” at the time of or within 12 months following a change in control. | | | | | | (4) | Represents continued payment of Mr. Westbrook’s “cash compensation” for a period of three months following his death, as provided in his employment agreement.

As provided in Mr. Westbrook’s employment agreement, this disability benefit is not payable until after the exhaustion of all paid time off days allocated for the calendar year and is reduced by the proceeds of any disability insurance policy then in effect pursuant to a disability insurance program sponsored by HomeTrust Bank or HomeTrust Bancshares. | | | | | | (7) | Represents annualized unused paid time off accrued for 2024, plus unused paid time off banked from prior years (maximum of one week per calendar year under the Company’s paid time off policy). | | | | | | (8) | Under his employment agreement, if Mr. Westbrook’s employment terminates due to disability during the one-year period following a change in control, Mr. Westbrook is entitled to a payment of 300% of his “cash compensation” and health and other insurance benefits for three years following the change in control. | | | | |

  44. CEO Pay Ratio

    CEO Pay Ratio As required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and the SEC’s implementing rules, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the compensation of our CEO, C. Hunter Westbrook, to the compensation of our median employee. The pay ratio set forth below is a reasonable estimate determined in a manner consistent with the SEC’s rules. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024: •the total compensation of our median employee was $72,981; •the total compensation of Mr. Westbrook was $1,389,048; and •the ratio of the total compensation of Mr. Westbrook to the total compensation of our median employee was 19.0 to 1. The Company identified the median employee using the amount of total cash earnings (base salary, bonus, paid time off and any other cash payments) during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 for each employee included in our payroll records as of December 31, 2024, other than Mr. Westbrook. An equivalent level of earnings were used for included employees who were not employed for the full fiscal year. The Company calculated total compensation for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 for the median employee and Mr. Westbrook applying the same methodology used in the calculation of the amounts in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table for our NEOs, plus the group health insurance premiums the Bank paid on behalf of the median employee and Mr. Westbrook of $7,214 and $14,186, respectively. This pay ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our payroll and employment records and the methodology described above. The SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their compensation practices. As such, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.

  45. Pay Versus Performance

    Pay Versus Performance As required by the Dodd-Frank Act and the SEC’s implementing rules, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive compensation actually paid (“CAP”) and certain measures of financial performance. CAP is calculated in accordance with SEC rules and does not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned or paid during the applicable year. For further information concerning the Company’s compensation philosophy and how the Company seeks to align executive compensation with its performance, see the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section above. The following table sets forth, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (“FY 2024”), six-month transition period ended December 31, 2023 (“TP”) and each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023, 2022 and 2021 (“FY 2023,” “FY 2022” and “FY 2021,” respectively), the total compensation, as reported in the “Summary Compensation Table” (“SCT”), of our principal executive officer (“PEO”) and, on average, of our NEOs other than the PEO (the “Non-PEO NEOs”), as well as the CAP to our PEO and average CAP to the Non-PEO NEOs. The table also provides information on our total stockholder return (“TSR”) and the TSR of our selected peer group, our net income, and our adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision (“PTPP”) income, which represents our company-selected measure per SEC rules.

    (1) For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and the six-month transition period ended December 31, 2023, Mr. Westbrook was the only person who served as our PEO. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, Messrs. Westbrook and Stonestreet served as our PEO for different portions of the year. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, Mr. Stonestreet was the only person who served as our PEO. The Non-PEO NEOs for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 include Mr. VunCannon, Ms. Powell, Mr. Sprink and Ms. Pelletier. The Non-PEO NEOs for the six-month transition period ended December 31, 2023 include Mr. VunCannon, Ms. Powell, Mr. Sprink, Ms. Pelletier and Mr. Stonestreet. The Non-PEO NEOs for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 include Mr. VunCannon, Ms. Powell, Mr. Sprink and Keith J. Houghton. The Non-PEO NEOs for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 include Mr. Westbrook, Mr. VunCannon, W. Mark DeMarcus and Ms. Powell. The Non-PEO NEOs for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 include Mr. Westbrook, Mr. VunCannon, Marty T. Caywood, Mr. Houghton and Paula C. Labian. The dollar amounts reported are total compensation in the SCT for the PEO and the average for the Non-PEO NEOs for each reported period. (2) These dollar amounts do not reflect actual amounts of compensation paid during the covered period, but reflect adjustments for (i) the period-end fair values of unvested equity awards granted in the covered period, (ii) the period-over-period difference of period-end fair values for unvested awards granted in prior periods, (iii) the fair values at vest date for awards granted and vested in the covered period, (iv) the difference between prior period-end fair values and vest date fair values for awards granted in prior periods that vested at the end of or during the covered period and (v) the fair value at the end of the prior period of any awards granted in a prior period that failed to meet the applicable vesting conditions (i.e., were forfeited) during the covered period. In addition, adjustments were made for the change in the actuarial present value of the NEO’s accumulated benefit under the SERP reported in the SCT and the current period service cost (which was zero, as all SERP benefits were fully vested). (3) Reflects the cumulative TSR of HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. (“HTB”) over the four and a half-year period ended December 31, 2024. The reporting is based on a theoretical $100 invested on the last day of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and valued as of the last trading day of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021, 2022 and 2023, the six-month transition period ended December 31, 2023 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. These calculated values were obtained from the S&P Cap IQ database. (4) Reflects the four and a half-year cumulative TSR of the S&P US BMI Bank Index, calculated in the same manner as the HTB TSR. This is the same peer group used by the Company in the Stockholder Return Performance Graph in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. (5) Net income as reported in the Company’s SEC filings, adjusted for the provision for credit losses, income tax expense, and any one-time or nonrecurring items (e.g., merger-related expenses, gain/loss on sale of securities or fixed assets, etc.). Refer to the “Executive Compensation Program in Detail” subsection of the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of the Company’s proxy statements for each period covered by this disclosure for additional detail on the calculation of adjusted PTPP income for the periods included above.
