FAQ

What insider transaction did MidWestOne (MOFG) director Carl J. Chaney report?

Carl J. Chaney reported dispositions of MidWestOne common stock in connection with its merger into Nicolet Bankshares. He reported 2,419 directly held shares and 7,005.777 trust-held shares as disposed to the issuer at zero price, reflecting cancellation and conversion under the merger terms.

How did the MidWestOne (MOFG) merger with Nicolet Bankshares affect MOFG shares?

At the merger’s effective time on February 13, 2026, each outstanding MidWestOne common share was canceled and converted into the right to receive 0.3175 of a Nicolet Bankshares common share. This exchange ratio determined what MOFG shareholders received when their original shares were extinguished.

How were MidWestOne (MOFG) RSU awards treated in the Nicolet merger?

Each outstanding MidWestOne RSU award fully vested, was canceled, and converted into Nicolet Bankshares shares. The number received equaled the MOFG shares underlying the RSU multiplied by the 0.3175 exchange ratio, reduced for any applicable withholding taxes required at the time of conversion.

Were Carl J. Chaney’s MidWestOne (MOFG) dispositions open-market stock sales?

No. The Form 4 identifies the transactions with code D as dispositions to the issuer, not open-market sales. The reported price per share is zero, indicating the shares were canceled and exchanged under the merger agreement rather than sold for cash in the market.

What does “Held in Trust” mean for Carl J. Chaney’s MidWestOne (MOFG) shares?

The filing notes that 7,005.777 MidWestOne shares were held indirectly in a trust. A footnote explains Chaney had previously moved 6,000 shares from his personal account into this trust, and additional fractional shares were added through dividend reinvestment before the merger conversion.

Why did Carl J. Chaney’s MidWestOne (MOFG) trust shares increase by 5.777?

The trust-held position increased by 5.777 shares due to dividends that were automatically reinvested into additional MidWestOne shares. This occurred between Chaney’s prior Form 4 filing and the current one, before those accumulated shares were canceled and converted in the Nicolet Bankshares merger.
