| Amendment Description | This amendment to Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this "Amendment") amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Finward Bancorp (the "Bancorp") on May 26, 2026 (the "Original Form 8-K"). The Original Form 8-K inadvertently reported the "Date of Report (Date of earliest event reported)" on the cover page as May 26, 2026, when it should have been reported as May 21, 2026. The Original Form 8-K also inadvertently reported the Annual Meeting date as May 22, 2026, when it should have been reported as May 21, 2026. The sole purpose of this Amendment is to correct the incorrect dates. No other changes are being made to the Original Form 8-K by this Amendment. |
