Insights
TL;DR: Routine director compensation reported; modest additional insider ownership aligns incentives without signaling a large shift.
The filing documents a standard issuance of equity as deferred director compensation under an existing shareholder-approved plan. The amount, 366 shares valued at the reported transaction price, is small relative to typical outstanding common stock for a bank holding company, indicating this is a routine, non-material change to ownership. No disposals, option exercises, loans, or derivative transactions are reported. Documentation is complete with signature by an attorney-in-fact.
TL;DR: Form 4 appears properly completed and timely for a routine compensation issuance.
The report specifies the transaction date, code (A for acquisition), number of shares, resulting beneficial ownership, and the compensation plan basis in the explanation section. There is no indication of amendments or additional related-party transactions. From a Section 16 reporting perspective, this satisfies disclosure of changes in beneficial ownership due to director compensation.
