Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

The First of Long Island Corporation's (the "Company") subsidiary, The First National Bank of Long Island (the "Bank") was notified by a customer of suspicious wire transfer activity in July 2024 involving the customer's bank accounts. The wire transfer activity arose as the result of unauthorized access to banking information within the customer's control. In an abundance of caution, the Bank completed an investigation with the assistance of a digital forensic investigations firm, which did not yield evidence of unauthorized network activity. Moreover, upon completion of an internal procedural investigation, the Bank believes that it followed its reasonable procedures regarding online wire transfers.

The net amount of funds at issue, after the initial return of recalled wires, involved in the suspicious wire transfer activity is currently $11.1 million. The customer has made a written demand for the restoration of the net amount of funds. The Bank disagrees with the customer's demand and the Bank will vigorously defend its position.

At this time, the Company believes that a potential loss to the Company is not considered probable. The Company has not accrued for a loss.

The Bank does not have reason to believe other customers are involved, and no other incidents have been reported. This incident has not impacted the Bank's ability to serve its customers.

This information is furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of Form 8-K and shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
