Insights

Routine tax-withholding entries with modest scale and no open-market trades.

EVP and Chief Credit Officer James C. Stallings III reported three code F transactions on April 1, 2026, totaling 1,228 shares of Seacoast Banking Corp of Florida common stock at $30.58 per share. Code F indicates shares were withheld to satisfy tax liabilities on equity compensation, not discretionary market sales.

Footnotes describe multiple unvested time-based restricted stock awards granted in 2023, 2024, and 2025 that vest over three years in one-third installments, subject to continued employment. The filings are consistent with normal vesting and associated tax withholding, a mechanistic process.

The holding line shows Stallings with 14,799 common shares directly after these entries, so the 1,228 shares represent a relatively small portion of his visible equity position. With no open-market purchases or sales and no derivative exercises, these transactions are best viewed as routine compensation administration rather than a directional signal.

tax-withholding disposition financial
"transaction_action": "tax-withholding disposition""
A tax-withholding disposition is an event or transaction—such as selling or transferring securities, exercising options, or receiving compensation—that triggers a requirement to hold back part of the payment and remit it to tax authorities. It matters to investors because it reduces the cash they receive immediately and can change the timing and amount of taxable income, like a cashier taking a portion of your sale proceeds to pay taxes before you get the rest.
restricted stock award financial
"Represents an unvested time-based restricted stock award granted on April 1, 2023"
A restricted stock award is company shares given to an employee or executive that cannot be sold or fully owned until certain conditions—like staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance targets—are met. Think of it as a gift that only becomes yours after you fulfill specific obligations; for investors, these awards matter because they can increase the total shares outstanding when they vest, reveal how management is being paid and motivated, and create potential selling pressure when restrictions lift.
time-based financial
"Represents an unvested time-based restricted stock award granted on April 1, 2024"
vest over 3 years financial
"which shall vest over 3 years in one-third increments"
continued employment financial
"on each anniversary thereafter, subject to continued employment"
Continued employment means that an individual remains in their current job without interruption. For investors, it signals stability and ongoing work that can affect company performance and future prospects. Like a steady heartbeat for a business, sustained employment helps ensure consistent operations and financial health.
