Explanatory Note

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Franklin Financial Services Corporation (the “Corporation”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 28, 2023 (the “Original 8-K”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to supplement the disclosure in the Original 8-K to disclose the decision regarding how frequently the Corporation will conduct future non-binding, advisory votes on the Corporation’s executive compensation programs and practices.

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

As previously reported, the Corporation held its 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on April 25, 2023 (the “Shareholders Meeting”). In the Original 8-K, the Corporation reported the results of the voting at the Shareholders Meeting, including that the shareholders voted to recommend holding future non-binding, advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers annually.

In light of the shareholder vote, the Board of Directors has decided that the Corporation will include a non-binding shareholder vote on the compensation of executives in the proxy materials annually until the next required vote on the frequency of non-binding shareholders votes on the compensation of executives, which will occur no later than the 2029 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
