General Information
Business:

Note: This is NOT an IPO. This is an NYSE Uplisting – a public offering conducted in connection with CoastalSouth Bancshares’ uplisting to the New York Stock Exchange from the OTCQX Marketplace. Our stock trades the stock symbol “COSO” on the OTCQX Marketplace.

CoastalSouth Bancshares, Inc. is a bank holding company headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. Through our wholly owned subsidiary, Coastal States Bank, a South Carolina state-chartered commercial bank, we offer a full range of banking products and services designed for businesses, real estate professionals, and consumers looking for a deep and meaningful relationship with their bank.

Today, we have a community banking presence in some of the fastest growing and most business-friendly markets in the U.S., namely the Low Country of South Carolina (Hilton Head Island, Bluffton, and Beaufort), nearby Savannah, Georgia, and the Atlanta, Georgia market.

In addition to our traditional community banking operations, we operate four specialty lines of business that provide scalability and diversification: 

*Senior Housing Lending – focuses on lending to operators across the spectrum of senior care, with an emphasis on assisted living;

*Marine Lending – focuses on consumer loans primarily to high-net-worth borrowers secured by yachts and high-end sport fishing vessels;

*Government Guaranteed Lending – focuses on origination of small business and other loans guaranteed by the SBA and USDA; and

*Mortgage Banker Finance – focuses on mortgage warehouse lending to mortgage originators.

By combining the relationship-based focus of a community bank with our specialty lines of business, we believe we can capitalize on the substantial growth opportunities available in our markets, particularly given the scarcity of community banks between $1.5 billion and $5.0 billion in total assets.

Note: Net income and revenue are for the 12 months that ended March 31, 2025.
