Significance 6

Director Volk David J. purchases 30,000 shares of BWB for $523,541.95 across two transactions at $17.46 and $17.44

Volk David J., a director at Bridgewater Bancshares, executed 2 purchases totaling 30,000 shares for $523,541.95 at a blended average price of $17.45 on October 24–27, 2025. The transactions occurred within the 52-week high range ($12.29–$17.80) and near the upper band, with the current price of $16.62 representing 6.6% below the 52-week high. The acquisition brings post-transaction holdings to 17,112 shares. With BWB trading at a P/E of 12.04 on a market cap of $456,759,715.08 and net income of $11,520,000.00, the director's open-market accumulation of a meaningful share count warrants investor attention to whether the board perceives fundamental value in the current market environment.

EVP Mary Jayne Crocker buys 100 BWB shares at $19.48; sixth buy in 90 days amid weak historical timing.

Mary Jayne Crocker, EVP & Chief Strategy Officer, purchased 100 shares of Bridgewater Bancshares at $19.48 on 2025-09-04, increasing her holdings to 5,495 shares. This is her sixth buy at this ticker within a compressed timeframe (five prior trades recorded, with another executed on 2025-08-13). However, her purchase price of $19.48 sits 21.1% above the current price of $16.09 and 14.6% above the 52-week high of $17.00—she has already purchased into an underwater position. Her same-ticker trading history shows a poor timing pattern: of five prior measurable buys at BWB, only one generated a positive 90-day return (the 2023-11-02 buy at +26.5%), while the 2024-10-29 buy delivered -33.2% over 90 days and the 2025-04-30 buy returned -14.4%. Her broader cross-ticker track record across six prior buys averaged -14.9% over 90 days with a 20% win rate. The rapid cadence of repeat purchases, combined with systematically poor outcomes in both historical windows, suggests either constrained decision-making context or execution that has not aligned with subsequent price movements.

EVP Mary Jayne Crocker buys 100 BWB shares at $20.00; stock now $15.75, down 7.4% from 52-week high

EVP & Chief Strategy Officer Mary Jayne Crocker purchased 100 shares of Bridgewater Bancshares at $20.00, increasing her holdings to 5,395 shares. The transaction occurred at a price $4.25 above the current market price of $15.75, which is -7.4% from the 52-week high of $17.00. Her track record at this ticker shows concerning timing: of 5 prior open-market buys at BWB, only 1 was well-timed at the 90-day mark, with an average 90-day outcome of -14.9% across her cross-ticker open-market history. The current market price is now materially below the purchase price paid just days before this filing, reflecting adverse near-term price movement.

Significance 3

Crocker's historical performance at this ticker is mixed: across 4 prior BWB trades, she achieved a 90-day positive return on only 1 transaction, with the other three buys experiencing 90-day losses ranging from -21.8% to -33.2%. Her cross-ticker track record shows an average 90-day return of -15.0% across prior buys, with a 25% win rate. The stock has risen 8.3% over the past 30 days but remains 3.4% below its 52-week high.
