(the “Company”), each dated March 20, 2020, furnished to shareholders of the Company in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of the Company for use at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) originally scheduled to be held on Tuesday, May 5, 2020 at 3:00 p.m. Mountain Daylight Time. This Supplement is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is being made available to shareholders of the Company on or about April 15, 2020.

NOTICE OF CHANGE OF LOCATION AND TIME
OF ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON MAY 5, 2020
April 15, 2020
To the Shareholders of First Interstate BancSystem, Inc.:
Due to concerns related to the public health impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and to support the health and well-being of our shareholders and other stakeholders, NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the location and time of the previously noticed Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company have been changed.
The Annual Meeting of Shareholders will now be held one hour later and at the Company’s headquarters, located at 401 North 31st Street, 18th Floor, Billings, Montana, on Tuesday, May 5, 2020, at 4:00 p.m. Mountain Daylight Time.
Because of the various and evolving recommendations limiting the number of persons that may gather at public events, there can be no guarantee that shareholders will be permitted to attend the meeting in person, or that doing so, even if permitted, would be in a shareholder’s best interest given safety concerns. We therefore urge shareholders to vote and submit proxies in advance of the Annual Meeting of Shareholders, in lieu of attending the meeting in person.
If the Company ultimately is unable to hold the Annual Meeting on May 5, 2020 in person at the new time and location, the Company will again notify shareholders by the issuance of a press release and the filing of additional proxy materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission, both of which will be available on the Company’s website, www.FIBK.com.
As described in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting previously distributed, you are entitled to participate in the Annual Meeting if you were a shareholder of record as of the close of business on March 6, 2020, the record date, or hold a legal proxy for the meeting provided by your broker, bank, trust, or other nominee. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote and submit your proxy in advance of the meeting by one of the methods described in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting. The proxy card included with the notice of internet availability of proxy materials previously distributed, a copy of which is included below for your reference, will not be updated to reflect the change in location and time for the Annual Meeting as updated hereby and may continue to be used to vote your shares in connection with the Annual Meeting.
BY ORDER OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Kirk D. Jensen
Corporate Secretary
Billings, Montana
April 15, 2020
Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to Be Held on May 5, 2020: The Company’s Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting, a sample of the form of proxy card sent to shareholders by the Company and the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K are available at www.astproxyportal.com/ast/40019/. Before making any voting decisions, you are urged to read the Company’s Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting (including any amendments or supplements thereto) and any other relevant documents that the Company may file with or furnish to the SEC.
