On April 9, 2026, Dimensional Fund Advisors LP filed a Schedule 13G/A with the SEC, reporting a 4.3% ownership stake in Simmons First National Corp (SFNC). The filing indicates that Dimensional Fund Advisors LP beneficially owns 6,245,676 shares of common stock as of the event date on March 31, 2026.

Item 5 of the filing confirms that the reporting person now owns 5% or less of the class of securities.
