FAQ

AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.

What insider transaction did NBT Bancorp (NBTB) report for its CEO?

NBT Bancorp reported that President and CEO Scott Allen received two stock awards totaling 12,651 shares of common stock. These equity grants are compensation-related and were not open-market purchases, reflecting standard long-term incentive arrangements rather than discretionary buying activity.

Were Scott Allen’s NBT Bancorp (NBTB) transactions open-market buys or sells?

The transactions were not open-market buys or sells. They were equity grants coded “A” and a tax-withholding disposition coded “F,” where 125 shares were withheld at $41.99 per share to satisfy tax liabilities tied to the vesting, rather than being sold on the market.

How many NBT Bancorp (NBTB) shares does the CEO hold after this Form 4?

After the reported transactions, Scott Allen directly holds 57,936 shares of NBT Bancorp common stock. This reflects the addition of stock awards and the small tax-withholding share reduction, and provides investors a snapshot of his current direct equity stake in the company.

What do the restricted stock unit footnotes mean for NBTB’s CEO grant?

One grant vests 20% annually under NBT Bancorp’s Omnibus Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, spreading the award over multiple years. Another block reflects earned restricted stock units that vested after a three-year performance period, linking part of the award to longer-term company results.

Does the tax-withholding entry in the NBTB Form 4 signal bearish selling?

The tax-withholding entry does not signal bearish selling. Code “F” indicates 125 shares were delivered to satisfy tax liabilities from vesting, a mechanical process. It differs from a voluntary open-market sale and does not independently show a negative view on NBT Bancorp stock.
