Significance 2

Director George Tsunis bought and sold 26,700 shares at $5.58 and $5.57 on 2026-06-04; stock down -58.3% from 52-week high.

George Tsunis executed a same-day buy-sell of 26,700 shares at nearly identical prices ($5.58 and $5.57), resulting in a minimal net change from the two transactions. His prior 5 trades at ABR (all buys between 2026-05-14 and 2026-05-19) showed negative returns at both the 30-day and 90-day marks, with a 0% win rate at the 90-day mark across those purchases. The stock is currently trading at $5.25, representing -58.3% from the 52-week high and -36.7% over the past 30 days. This simultaneous buy-sell pattern, combined with his track record of underwater prior purchases at this ticker, suggests mechanical or administrative activity rather than a conviction-driven accumulation signal.

Significance 6

Chief Compliance Officer David Friedman buys 8,840 shares while simultaneously selling 7,685 at Arbor Realty Trust—net positive accumulation with strong prior purchase history.

David Friedman, Chief Compliance Officer and Head of Non-Agency Products at Arbor Realty Trust, is adding to his stake with a net purchase of 1,155 shares, marking his sixth open-market buy in the past three years. What sets this transaction apart is that every one of his five prior purchases at ABR has been followed by meaningful gains within the 30-day window, and four of those five also generated positive returns over the following 90 days—demonstrating consistent buying discipline at opportune moments. The company itself is profitable and generating solid earnings, providing a stable operational backdrop for his accumulation. However, the fact that Friedman is simultaneously selling off a similar number of shares he's buying (7,685 shares disposed against 8,840 acquired) suggests a tactical rebalancing rather than an aggressive conviction-driven accumulation, likely reflecting routine portfolio management alongside his core buying activity.

Significance 4

Director Tsunis George bought 1,927 shares of ABR at $7.85, raising holdings to 25.0K; stock down 38.1% from 52-week high.

Tsunis George, a Director, purchased 1,927 shares on 2026-03-17 at $7.85 per share, bringing total holdings to 24,990 shares (25.0K shares). This represents an 8.4% increase in his prior shareholding of 23,063 shares (23.1K shares). At the time of the purchase, the stock was trading significantly below its 52-week high of $12.46, down 38.1%, and currently trades at $7.71, near the transaction price. The company shows solid fundamentals with net income of $52,016,000.00 ($52.0M) on revenue of $10,871,000.00 ($10.9M) (latest quarter), with a P/E of 18.36 and market cap of $1,488,919,086.36 ($1.5B). The transaction is modest in absolute terms ($15,126.95 total value) relative to the company's scale, and the stock's recent 30-day change of -0.1% and 90-day change of -4.3% provide limited directional context for the timing.

Director Green buys 12,800 shares of ABR at $9.02; stock down 40.6% from 52-week high amid cluster buy by 3 other insiders.

Director William C Green purchased 12,800 shares at $9.02 on 2025-11-28, increasing his position by 6.6% to 205,418 shares post-transaction. The purchase occurs as the stock trades at $8.81 current price, down 40.6% from its 52-week high of $14.84 and down 12.7% over the past 30 days. The transaction coincides with a cluster pattern: 3 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days, suggesting coordinated conviction at depressed levels. At this same ticker, Green's prior 5 trades show mixed results—3 of 5 were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with his June 2025 buy posting +26.4% over 90 days, but his December 2024 buys declining 13.1% over the same period. The company shows a P/E of 8.31 and net income of $52,016,000.00, supporting a potential value signal, though the persistent weakness and recent underperformance (90-day decline of 24.6%) warrant monitoring of whether this represents a floor or continued deterioration.

Director Lazar Melvin F bought 5,000 shares of ABR at $8.28; cluster of 3 insiders buying within 14 days as stock trades -44.3% from 52-week high.

Director Melvin F. Lazar purchased 5,000 shares at $8.28, adding to his 239,714-share position at a price level significantly depressed relative to recent highs. The transaction occurs within a cluster pattern: 2 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days, suggesting coordinated conviction by the insider group. The stock currently trades at $8.53, down -44.3% from its 52-week high of $15.32 and down -26.7% over the past 30 days, indicating sustained downward pressure. Against this backdrop, the filing shows ABR's fundamentals remain intact, with net income of $52,016,000.00 and a P/E of 8.05, suggesting the price decline has created a valuation floor that multiple insiders are willing to transact near.

CCO David Erwin buys 2,508 ABR shares at $8.30; 5 prior same-ticker buys all well-timed; cluster pattern with 2 other insiders in 14 days

David Erwin, Chief Compliance Officer and Head of Non-Agency Products at Arbor Realty Trust, purchased 2,508 shares at $8.30 on 2025-11-17, increasing his holdings from 68.4K to 70.9K shares. Notably, his 5 prior trades at ABR were all well-timed purchases with strong 90-day returns ranging from 8.0% to 35.0%, establishing a consistent pattern of execution at favorable entry points for this specific stock. The current transaction coincides with a 2-insider cluster buy within the past 14 days, suggesting coordinated conviction among multiple insiders at current valuations. At a P/E of 8.05 with $52.0M in net income against a $1.7B market cap, the stock trades near its 52-week low ($8.25) after a 44.3% decline from its peak, though context alone cannot verify whether this represents a systematic or circumstantial alignment.

Ivan Kaufman, COB, CEO and President, executed 2 separate purchases totaling 54,000 shares for $469,360.00 at an average price of $8.69 on 2025-11-13 and 2025-11-17, moving into his first position. The stock is currently trading at $8.25, down 46.8% from its 52-week high of $15.50 and down 29.1% over the past 30 days. His prior trades at ABR (5 prior buys) were all well-timed at the 90-day mark, establishing a consistent pattern of favorable post-purchase price appreciation at this ticker. A cluster pattern is also present, with 2 other insiders buying within the past 14 days, suggesting broader insider conviction at these price levels. The combination of the CEO's first open-market position following a steep price decline, historically accurate timing patterns at this company, and concurrent insider buying from others merits investor attention.

Director William C Green bought 13,821 shares of ABR at $9.45 on 2025-06-03; fourth insider purchase in 14 days amid -37.9% decline from 52-week high.

Director William C Green purchased 13,821 shares at $9.45, increasing his holdings by 7.7% to 192,618 shares. This transaction occurs as part of a cluster pattern: four other insiders have also bought within the past 14 days, suggesting coordinated accumulation at depressed valuations. The stock is currently trading at $9.72, down 37.9% from its 52-week high of $15.66 and down 9.5% over the last 30 days, reflecting significant recent price pressure. Green's prior trades at ABR show a 60% success rate by the 90-day mark (3 of 5 prior buys were well-timed), with his broader cross-ticker track record showing a 78.57% 90-day win rate and average 90-day return of +7.1%, though his December 2024 ABR purchases at higher prices subsequently declined 13.1% by the 90-day mark. The fundamental backdrop shows a low P/E of 7.36 and strong profitability ($43.4M net income on $10.9M quarterly revenue), though the steep recent drawdown and insider cluster activity warrant monitoring of whether this represents a floor or continued deterioration.
