"transaction_action": "tax-withholding disposition""
A tax-withholding disposition is an event or transaction—such as selling or transferring securities, exercising options, or receiving compensation—that triggers a requirement to hold back part of the payment and remit it to tax authorities. It matters to investors because it reduces the cash they receive immediately and can change the timing and amount of taxable income, like a cashier taking a portion of your sale proceeds to pay taxes before you get the rest.

FAQ

What insider activity did HAFC CEO Bonita Lee report on this Form 4?

HAFC President & CEO Bonita Lee reported a tax-related share disposition. On April 1, 2026, 3,769 shares of Hanmi Financial common stock were withheld to satisfy tax obligations, rather than sold in the market, as part of routine equity compensation processing.

How many HAFC shares were withheld for taxes and at what price?

A total of 3,769 Hanmi Financial common shares were withheld for taxes at $26.60 per share. This represents a payment of tax liability using shares instead of cash, classified under transaction code F on the Form 4 filing for Bonita Lee.

How many HAFC shares does Bonita Lee hold after this tax-withholding transaction?

After the reported transaction, Bonita Lee directly holds 202,555 Hanmi Financial common shares. The filing also shows an additional 1,000 shares held indirectly through her spouse, indicating both direct and family-related ownership positions in the company’s stock.

Was the HAFC CEO’s Form 4 a market sale of shares?

No, the Form 4 shows a tax-withholding disposition, not a market sale. Shares were delivered to cover tax obligations at $26.60 per share, using transaction code F, which differs from open-market sales typically reported with transaction code S.

What indirect ownership in HAFC stock is reported for the CEO’s household?

The Form 4 discloses 1,000 Hanmi Financial common shares held indirectly "By Spouse." This indicates an additional household-related interest in HAFC stock, separate from Bonita Lee’s 202,555 directly owned shares, even though no buy or sell transaction is reported for that indirect position.
