[Form 4] TIMBERLAND BANCORP INC Insider Trading Activity
Kathy D. Leodler, a director of Timberland Bancorp Inc. (TSBK), reported a non-derivative transaction on September 26, 2025. Two hundred restricted shares vested that day and the reporting person elected to have all 200 vested shares withheld by the issuer to satisfy state and federal tax withholding obligations, resulting in a reported disposition at a price of $34.20 per share. After the withholding, the reporting person beneficially owned 1,735 shares of TSBK, held directly. The Form 4 was signed by Cheryl Parks as power of attorney on September 29, 2025.

Insights
TL;DR Restricted stock vested and was withheld to cover taxes; modest net change in beneficial ownership.
The filing documents a routine tax-withholding disposition following the vesting of restricted shares. The transaction code F indicates shares were withheld by the issuer to meet tax obligations rather than an open-market sale, which is typically a administrative change rather than a signal of sentiment. The resulting direct beneficial ownership of 1,735 shares remains modest and unlikely to materially affect control or valuation.
TL;DR Administrative vesting event with tax withholding; not a material governance development.
The report shows a director-level insider experienced standard vesting of restricted stock and used issuer withholding to satisfy taxes. There is no indication of additional transfers, pledges, or derivative activity. For governance monitoring, this is a routine disclosure reflecting compensation mechanics, not a change in board composition or a material transaction.
