[Form 4] OFG BANCORP Insider Trading Activity
Jose Rafael Fernandez, the CEO and Chairman of OFG Bancorp (OFG), reported a non‑derivative transaction dated 09/22/2025 in which 600 shares of common stock were disposed of under transaction code G, which the filer explains is a bona fide gift with no consideration received. After the reported transaction, Mr. Fernandez is shown as beneficially owning 214,674.688 shares in a direct capacity. The Form 4 was submitted by a single reporting person and executed via an attorney‑in‑fact.
- Timely and complete disclosure of the insider transaction under Section 16
- Clear explanation that the 600‑share disposition was a bona fide gift with no consideration received
- Minor reduction in the CEO/Chairman's direct shareholding (600 shares), though immaterial relative to total ownership
Insights
TL;DR: Small, disclosed gift from the CEO/Chairman; routine reporting, limited governance implications.
The reported 600‑share gift is explicitly described as a bona fide gift and is fully disclosed on Form 4, meeting Section 16 reporting obligations. Given the 214,674.688 shares remaining beneficially owned, the disposal represents a de minimis change in ownership (~0.28% of the reported holding). There is no indication of any change in role or control and no derivative transactions were reported, so governance impact is minimal.
TL;DR: Transaction is minor and non‑economic (gift); unlikely to affect OFG's valuation or trading.
The disposition code G and the explanation clarify this was a gift with no proceeds, which distinguishes it from a market sale. The size (600 shares) relative to the total beneficial holding of 214,674.688 shares is immaterial to ownership percentage and provides no new signal about insider liquidity needs or outlook. No derivative positions were reported, so there are no changes to option exposure.
