Item 8.01  Other Events.

On July 10, 2015, Sunshine Savings Bank (the "Bank"), the wholly owned operating subsidiary of Sunshine Financial, Inc., announced that it had submitted an application to the Florida Office of Financial Regulation ("OFR") to convert its charter from a federally-chartered savings bank to a Florida-chartered commercial bank.  Subject to receiving the necessary regulatory approvals, the conversion is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of calendar year 2015.

Upon completion of the conversion, the Bank's primary regulator will be the OFR, with additional federal oversight provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC").  The Federal Reserve Board will continue to be the primary banking regulator for Sunshine Financial, Inc.
The conversion to a state charter will not affect the Bank's customers in any way.  Depositors will continue to have full protection of the FDIC.

The press release announcing the Bank's charter change is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
