Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR: Insider-related entities sold modest blocks; Stilwell retains material direct and indirect ownership.

The reported September 8, 2025 sales are specific and limited in size (14,944; 2,551; 7,505 shares) at a disclosed price of $14.41. Despite these dispositions, the filing shows material retained positions across Stilwell-affiliated vehicles and direct ownership of 162,500 shares. The disclosure of convertible Class C and D preferred stock and their conversion ratio is important because it quantifies potential common share dilution from conversion rights. All transactions and holdings are presented in clear, itemized fashion consistent with Section 16 reporting.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR: Transparent Section 16 disclosure by a director/10% owner; sales were executed by affiliated entities via attorney-in-fact.

The Form 4 is signed by an attorney-in-fact for Joseph Stilwell and multiple Stilwell entities, documenting joint filing and clarifying direct versus indirect ownership and disclaimers of beneficial ownership to the extent of pecuniary interest. The filing includes redemption dates and conversion mechanics for preferred classes, which are governance-relevant as they affect capital structure. No amendments or additional contextual governance actions are included in this filing.
