[Form 4] First US Bancshares, Inc. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

SEC Form 4 snapshot: On 06/30/2025, First US Bancshares, Inc. (FUSB) director Robert S. Briggs received 87.34 phantom stock units through the company’s Non-Employee Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan. The units accrue from quarterly dividends and convert to common stock on a 1-for-1 basis at settlement. The reference price recorded for the accrual is $12.90.

After the transaction, Briggs’ aggregate phantom-unit balance rose to 16,266.93 units, all reported as directly held. No open-market purchases, sales, or non-derivative share movements were disclosed.

Because the award is plan-based and automatically triggered by dividend accruals, it is viewed as routine and non-market-moving. Nevertheless, it modestly reinforces the director’s long-term alignment with shareholder value creation.

Positive

• Director increases deferred equity stake: 87.34 additional phantom stock units lift Robert S. Briggs’ holdings to 16,266.93 units, signaling continued long-term alignment.

Negative

• None.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: Routine phantom-unit accrual; minimal immediate market impact, modestly positive for alignment.

The filing documents an automatic addition of 87.34 phantom stock units to Director Robert S. Briggs’ deferred account. With no open-market action and a de minimis dollar value (≈ $1.1 k), the event is immaterial to FUSB’s capital structure or daily trading volume. It does, however, incrementally increase insider exposure to equity performance, a small governance positive. From a valuation or liquidity standpoint, the transaction is neutral and unlikely to influence investor sentiment or price discovery.
