[Form 4] HILLTOP HOLDINGS INC. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Hilltop Holdings Inc. (HTH) – Form 4 insider transaction

Director Rhodes R. Bobbitt received 957 shares of common stock on 07/24/2025 through the company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan, representing annual board compensation rather than an open-market purchase. The award was valued at $31.36 per share (based on the 07/23/2025 close), implying a grant worth roughly $30 k.

After the grant, Bobbitt directly and indirectly owns 127,016 HTH shares, including 62,100 held in an IRA. No derivative securities were reported, and there were no dispositions. The transaction lifts the director’s stake by less than 1%, indicating a routine, non-signal event with minimal impact on the company’s share-supply dynamics or insider-sentiment interpretation.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR Routine equity grant; negligible ownership change, neutral signal.

The filing documents a standard director stock grant totaling ~US$30k, increasing Bobbitt’s holdings to 127k shares. Given the <1% incremental change and the fact that it stems from scheduled board compensation, the event is immaterial for valuation or sentiment analysis. No buying pressure, selling pressure, or derivative activity is indicated. I classify the impact on HTH’s investment thesis as neutral.
