Serves consumers and small businesses through BayFirst National Bank in the Tampa Bay–Sarasota region. The bank operates under a national charter and has a network of full-service offices.
The business traces to First Home Bank, which began in 1999; the holding company adopted the BayFirst name in 2021. Its common stock trades on Nasdaq under BAFN.
A 2025 agreement to sell SBA 7(a) loans accompanied an announced exit from that lending business. Parent-company CEO succession remained subject to a Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta non-objection after the bank appointed Alfred T. Rogers, Jr. CEO in 2026.
