Item 2.02  Results of Operations and Financial Condition
 
On April 28, 2021, HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc., (the "Company") the holding company for HomeTrust Bank, issued a press release reporting third quarter fiscal 2021 financial results and approval of its quarterly cash dividend. A copy of the press release, including unaudited financial information released as a part thereof, is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
    
On April 26, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved an amendment to the Company’s bylaws, which became effective immediately. The amendment affects the mandatory director retirement provision contained in Article II, Section 12 of the Company's bylaws.

Prior to the amendment, Article II, Section 12 generally prohibited a person who is not an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries and is (a) 72 years of age or older and was a director of the Company on April 30, 2018 or (b) 70 years of age or older and was not a director of the Company on April 30, 2018, from being elected, re-elected, appointed or re-appointed to the Board or continuing to serve as a director beyond the annual meeting of stockholders of the Company immediately following the non-employee director becoming age 72 or 70, as applicable (such age being referred to below as the “General Director Retirement Age” and such provision being referred to below as the “General Director Retirement Provision,” in each case under the Company’s bylaws as in effect prior to the amendment).

Prior to the amendment, Article II, Section 12 also prohibited a person who is 75 years of age or older and who is an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries from being elected, re-elected, appointed or re-appointed to the Board or from continuing to serve as a director beyond the annual meeting of stockholders of the Company immediately following the director becoming age 75 (such provision being referred to below as the “Employee Director Retirement Provision” under the Company’s bylaws as in effect prior to the amendment).

In addition, prior to the amendment, in the case of a non-employee director who was serving as a director of the Company on June 30, 2013 and April 30, 2018 and is between 72 and 74 years of age, the Board had the discretion to exempt the director from the General Director Retirement Provision until the next annual meeting of stockholders of the Company (the “Extension Option”).

Article II, Section 12 was amended to (i) eliminate the Employee Director Retirement Provision, (ii) revise the General Director Retirement Provision to apply to all directors of the Company, (iii) change the General Director Retirement Age to 72 for all directors of the Company and (iv) limit the Extension Option to directors who were directors of the Company on June 30, 2016.

The foregoing description of the amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
