Form 4 filing – Lakeland Financial Corp. (LKFN)
Director Darrianne P. Christian reported the acquisition of 40 phantom stock units on 08/05/2025 at an effective price of $61.5128 per unit (Transaction Code A). Each unit is economically equivalent to one share of LKFN common stock and will convert upon the director’s retirement. Following the transaction, the director now holds 4,950 phantom stock units in direct ownership. No common shares were bought or sold, and no other derivative or non-derivative positions were reported.
Phantom stock carries no present voting rights and is non-dilutive until conversion, but the purchase modestly increases the director’s long-term equity exposure.
Form 4 filing for Lakeland Financial Corp. (LKFN) discloses that director Faraz Abbasi acquired 17 phantom stock units on 08/05/2025 at an assigned price of $61.5128 per unit under the company’s deferred compensation plan. Each phantom unit is economically equivalent to one share of LKFN common stock and converts into stock only after the director retires from the board.
Following the transaction, Abbasi beneficially owns 2,078 phantom stock units, all held in direct form. No open-market purchase or sale of common shares was reported, and Table I contains no entries. The filing carries no indications of 10b5-1 plan usage, amendments, or changes in non-derivative ownership.
The acquisition is small (<0.1% of LKFN’s ~25 M shares outstanding) and appears routine, suggesting minimal immediate market impact but signaling continued alignment of the director’s interests with shareholders through deferred equity exposure.
Lakeland Financial Corp. (LKFN) Form 4 insider filing: Senior Vice President Kyra E. Clark reported the sale of 300 common shares on 07/30/2025 at $67.00 per share, an aggregate value of roughly $20.1 thousand. Following the transaction, Clark directly owns 9,614 shares, indicating she retained more than 96% of her pre-sale position. No derivative securities were reported, and the filing does not reference a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan.
The transaction is modest relative to LKFN’s average daily trading volume and Clark’s remaining stake (worth about $0.64 million at the sale price). Consequently, the activity is unlikely to have a material impact on the company’s equity structure or governance profile, but investors often monitor insider disposition trends for sentiment signals.
