Form 4 Overview – Business First Bancshares, Inc. (BFST)
Director Carol Calkins filed a Form 4 reporting no open-market transactions; the filing mainly discloses current equity holdings and a new equity award.
- Common stock holdings: 6,000 shares reported for record-keeping only; no shares were bought or sold on 06/26/2025.
- Equity award: 1,016 time-based restricted stock units (RSUs) granted on 06/26/2025 under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan. Each RSU converts to one BFST common share upon vesting.
- Vesting schedule: The RSUs will fully vest on 06/26/2026, subject to forfeiture under certain conditions.
- Ownership form: All reported securities are held directly by the director.
The filing increases the director’s potential future share ownership by roughly 17% (1,016 ÷ 6,000) once the RSUs vest, modestly aligning her incentives with shareholders. However, the absolute share count is too small to have a material effect on BFST’s share count or trading dynamics.
