Form 4 Filing Overview – First Busey Corp. (BUSE)
Chief Accounting Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer Scott A. Phillips reported three transactions involving First Busey common stock between 25 April 2025 and 7 July 2025.
- 25 Apr 2025 – Acquisition (Code A): 56.2135 shares acquired through dividend reinvestment at $20.8288 per share. Post-transaction direct holdings: 4,739.6528 shares.
- 30 Jun 2025 – Acquisition (Code A): 212.4996 shares purchased via the Employee Stock Purchase Plan at $18.3345 per share. Post-transaction direct holdings: 4,952.1524 shares.
- 07 Jul 2025 – Tax Withholding (Code F): 437 shares withheld at $24.00 per share upon settlement of vested RSUs to satisfy tax obligations. Despite the withholding, direct ownership increased to 10,804 shares, indicating delivery of a larger RSU block.
Context & Materiality
The net result is an increase of roughly 5,852 shares over the period, reflecting continued participation in company equity programs by a senior financial executive. Transaction sizes are modest relative to First Busey’s public float and are routine in nature (dividend reinvestment, ESPP purchases, and RSU settlement). No derivative securities were reported.
First Busey Corporation (BUSE) – Form 4 insider activity: Chief Credit Officer Chip S. Jorstad reported two transactions covering the June 30-July 7, 2025 period.
- 06/30/2025 – Code A: Purchased 366.9039 common shares through the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (Rule 16b-3 exempt) at an average price of $18.3345.
- 07/07/2025 – Code F: Disposed of 7,946 shares at $24.00 to satisfy withholding taxes on vested Restricted Stock Units.
After these moves Jorstad directly owns 58,228 shares.
Net share change for the reporting period is a decrease of roughly 7,579 shares (-11.5% of his pre-transaction position).
Because the larger transaction is coded “F,” it represents automatic tax withholding rather than an open-market sale, limiting bearish interpretation. The modest ESPP purchase shows continued participation in the company plan but is too small to offset the withholding reduction.
