Left-back Leon McCann has signed a two-year extension to his Falkirk contract, running until 2028.
The 26-year-old has played 21 times in the Scottish Premiership this term after progressing to the top flight from the third tier with the Bairns.
Manager John McGlynn hailed "an outstanding season" from the defender, who has played more than 160 games for the club.
"We ask [our full-backs] to get forward and contribute, and especially in recent weeks that's really been paying off for Leon and for the team," McGlynn said.
"He progressed from League One into the Championship and, like a few others, there were probably questions about whether he could make that step up.
"I think Leon has definitely done that. He's excelled, and it's a tribute to him that he's performed so well. We're delighted to be working with him for a further two years."
Former Airdrieonians left-back McCann added: "I'm over the moon. It's been in the works for a wee bit and I'm buzzing to get it over the line.
"The club's been on an upwards trajectory for the past three years. I knew where this club could go, that's the reason I signed.
"I knew Falkirk was a sleeping giant, and now we're close to securing top six in our first season back in the Premiership, who knows where this club can go."
