Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

Premier Financial Corp. (the "Company") is disclosing the following update to
certain COVID-19 related loan payment deferral information. The Company
continues to monitor the effects of COVID-19 on the loan portfolio as well as
all the associated risks to minimize any potential losses. In an effort to help
its customers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, Premier Bank, the Company's
wholly-owned subsidiary (the "Bank"), has implemented hardship relief programs
that, among other things, include loan payment deferrals that range from one to
six months. While the Bank continues to receive requests from borrowers for
payment deferrals on loans, the amount of loan payment deferrals declined from
$206.7 million, or 3.7% of the total loan portfolio at October 31, 2020, to
$63.7 million, or 1.2% of the total loan portfolio at November 30, 2020.

A breakdown of deferrals as of October 31, 2020, and updated as of November 30, 2020, is as follows (in thousands):
