Amalgamated Financial insider filing shows small share increase

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

On 07/26/2025, Amalgamated Financial Corp. (AMAL) EVP & Chief Credit Risk Officer Margaret M. Lanning reported a routine equity-based transaction on Form 4.

• 579 restricted stock units (RSUs) were exercised into common shares (Code M).
• 183 shares were withheld for taxes at $30.06 per share (Code F).
• Net result: insider’s direct holdings rise by ≈396 shares to 13,230.39 shares, which includes 24.39 DRIP shares.
• The RSUs originated from a 07/26/2022 grant of 1,733 units that vest in three annual tranches; after this vesting, no derivative units remain.

No open-market buying or selling was disclosed, and the amount is immaterial versus AMAL’s share count. Still, the filing shows continuing equity alignment by a senior risk officer.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: Small RSU vesting adds 396 shares to officer’s stake; minimal valuation impact, slightly positive governance signal.

The filing records a scheduled RSU vesting, not an active purchase. While it increases insider ownership, the amount represents a fraction of a percent of shares outstanding, offering little insight into management’s view on valuation. Tax withholding disposal is standard and does not suggest bearish sentiment. Overall market impact is negligible, but continued equity retention by the Chief Credit Risk Officer modestly aligns incentives with shareholders.
