California BanCorp (BCAL) – Form 4 filing, 8/4/2025. EVP & Chief Risk Officer Martin Liska reported a Code F transaction on 8/2/2025, indicating the withholding and sale of shares to satisfy tax obligations triggered by the vesting of a prior equity award.
- Shares disposed: 702 common shares at $14.60
- Proceeds applied: tax withholdings (not an open-market sale)
- Remaining beneficial ownership: 28,128 shares held directly and 25,542 shares held indirectly through the MACH4 Trust, for an aggregate 53,670 shares.
California BanCorp (BCAL) Form 4 filing, 08/04/2025: Executive Chairman and Director David I. Rainer satisfied tax-withholding obligations by having 3,508 BCAL common shares withheld on 08/02/2025 (Transaction Code F). The shares were valued at $14.60 each, an implied transaction value of roughly $51 k. Because Code F denotes shares withheld from a vested equity award, the sale was not an open-market disposition.
After the withholding, Rainer still directly owns 200,004 shares and indirectly, through the David and Anne Rainer Trust, another 329,124 shares, for a total beneficial ownership of about 529 k shares. His ownership percentage and board/management roles remain unchanged.
No derivatives were reported, and no other transactions occurred. Given the small size relative to his total position and the administrative nature of the trade, the filing is unlikely to have a material impact on BCAL’s governance, capital structure, or market sentiment.
California BanCorp (BCAL) – Form 4 insider activity
CEO & Director Steven E. Shelton filed a Form 4 for a single Code F transaction dated 08/02/2025. The company withheld 2,924 common shares at an average price of $14.60 to cover taxes triggered by the vesting of a prior equity award. Post-withholding, Shelton directly owns 128,261 BCAL shares.
Code F indicates the shares were surrendered back to the issuer rather than sold in the open market. The disposition equals roughly 2.3 % of his pre-transaction position and is generally viewed as a routine, non-directional event with no change to Shelton’s executive or board roles.
California BanCorp (BCAL) – Form 4 insider filing: CFO Jean Carandang reported a single Code F transaction on 08/02/2025 in which 702 common shares were withheld at $14.60 per share to cover tax obligations arising from a previously-granted equity award. Following the transaction, Carandang owns 41,288 shares directly and 8,000 shares indirectly through an IRA, bringing total beneficial ownership to 49,288 shares. No derivative securities were reported. Code F indicates a non-open-market disposition solely for tax withholding, so the event is administrative rather than indicative of a strategic sale. The dollar value of shares withheld is roughly $10.3 k, a de-minimis amount relative to the executive’s remaining stake and BCAL’s market capitalization. No other insider activity, option exercises, or new grants were disclosed in this filing.
California BanCorp (BCAL) Form 4: EVP & Chief Operating Officer Michelle Wirfel had 1,404 common shares withheld on 08/02/2025 (code F) to cover taxes triggered by a prior equity-award vesting. At the reported price of $14.60, the transaction is worth about $20.5 k.
After the withholding, Wirfel still directly owns 76,878 BCAL shares; no derivative positions were listed. Because code F denotes a mandatory, non-discretionary sale for tax purposes, the event is viewed as routine and immaterial to BCAL’s operating outlook or capital structure.
California BanCorp (BCAL) – Form 4 insider filing
President Richard Hernandez reported one transaction dated 02-Aug-2025. Code “F” shows 1,404 common shares were automatically withheld at $14.60 per share (≈ $20.5 k) to satisfy tax obligations tied to a previously-granted equity award. After the withholding, Hernandez still owns 80,432 shares directly and 20,834 shares indirectly via an IRA, leaving his total beneficial ownership at 101,266 shares. No derivative securities were involved.
Because the sale was tax-related rather than discretionary, it is considered routine and conveys limited information about management’s sentiment. The executive retains more than 99 % of his pre-transaction holdings, maintaining substantial alignment with shareholders.
