Significance 6

Director Matthew De Soto accumulates 1,525 shares of Mid Penn Bancorp in coordinated open-market buys near current price.

Director Matthew De Soto executed three open-market purchases totaling approximately 1,525 shares on the same day, each at prices very close to the stock's current trading level—a deliberate accumulation rather than a reactive bottom-pick. The timing matters: the stock is trading slightly below its yearly highs after a modest recent pullback, meaning De Soto is buying into modest strength, not desperation prices. Mid Penn Bancorp itself is a profitable community bank with reasonable valuation and solid earnings, providing a stable foundation for this purchase. The coordinated nature of the three same-day tranches—rather than a single lump purchase—suggests methodical conviction from someone with operational insight into the bank's condition. While the dollar amount is modest relative to his existing holdings, a director voluntarily putting cash to work in his own company when the stock isn't in distress is a behavioral signal worth noting.

Director Abel Robert A bought 15 MPB shares at $32.16; 5 cluster buys in 14 days, prior timing 80% well-timed at 90d mark.

Abel Robert A (Director) purchased 15 shares of MID PENN BANCORP INC at $32.16 on 2026-03-31, expanding holdings from 7,719 to 7,734 shares. His prior trades at MPB show a strong timing pattern: 4 of 5 prior buys achieved positive 90-day returns, with an 80% well-timed rate. This transaction coincides with a broader cluster pattern—5 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days—suggesting coordinated confidence in the stock. Current price of $32.37 is -6.5% from the 52-week high and +4.4% from the 90-day baseline, positioning the stock within a moderate range; the company's P/E of 13.21 and net income of $18,297,000.00 provide fundamental support. The repetition of Abel's buy pattern at this 90-day interval, combined with the cluster activity, aligns with his historical execution at this ticker.

Director Brumbaugh buys 78 shares of MPB at $32.16; 5th consecutive buy in 6 months amid cluster of 5 others buying within 14 days.

Kimberly J Brumbaugh, a director at Mid Penn Bancorp, purchased 78 shares at $32.16 on 2026-03-31, extending her holdings to 10,561 shares. This marks her fifth open-market buy in 6 months at MPB, with 4 of the 5 prior purchases yielding positive 90-day returns ranging from +3.7% to +10.0%, suggesting a track record of favorable timing at this ticker. The transaction occurs within a cluster of 5 other insiders also buying within the past 14 days, a pattern that typically reflects shared conviction about valuation or near-term prospects. At the transaction price of $32.16, the stock traded near the mid-point of its 52-week range ($24.01–$34.61), and has since moderated 1.0% over the past 30 days but remains up 4.4% over 90 days. The director's sustained accumulation pattern at this price level warrants attention as a potential signal of insider assessment of value, though the modest transaction size ($2,508.48) limits the signal's weight.

Director Albert J. Evans bought 311 MPB shares at $32.16; joins 5 other insiders' buys in 14 days

Evans Albert J., a Director, purchased 311 shares of Mid Penn Bancorp at $32.16 on 2026-03-31, increasing his holdings to 39,593 shares. The transaction occurs within a cluster of 5 other insider purchases in the prior 14 days, which is a notable pattern of coordinated director/officer interest in the stock. At his same-ticker history (5 prior MPB buys), Evans achieved positive 90-day returns in 3 of 5 trades, with 2 of 3 most recent buys delivering gains at 30-day (+6.4%) and 90-day (+3.7%) marks. The current stock price of $32.37 is -6.5% from the 52-week high of $34.61, placing the purchase slightly below recent peak valuations. With a 13.21 P/E ratio and $750.2M market cap against $18.3M net income, the company appears reasonably valued; the cluster buy pattern suggests board/management confidence in current levels, though the isolated transaction itself ($10.0K value) represents a modest addition to a $1.28M+ position.

Director Frank Joel L. bought 78 shares of MPB at $32.16; cluster buy pattern with 5 other insiders in 14 days

Frank Joel L., a Director at Mid Penn Bancorp, purchased 78 shares at $32.16 on 2026-03-31, bringing holdings to 9,408 shares. Significantly, this transaction is part of a cluster buy pattern in which 5 other insiders also purchased within the past 14 days, suggesting coordinated confidence in the stock's value. Examining the Director's prior trades at MPB specifically, 4 of 5 previous buys achieved positive 90-day returns (ranging from +3.7% to +10.0%), demonstrating a historical pattern of well-timed accumulation at this ticker. The current price of $32.37 sits -6.5% below the 52-week high of $34.61, positioning this purchase near recent lows in the stock's recent trading range, which may reflect the insider's assessment of attractive pricing relative to fundamentals (P/E of 13.21 and net income of $18,297,000.00).

Director De Soto bought 311 shares of MPB at $32.16 on 2026-03-31; stock now $32.37. Cluster buy pattern with 5 other insiders in past 14 days.

Director Matthew G De Soto purchased 311 shares of Mid Penn Bancorp on 2026-03-31 at $32.16, raising his holdings to 115,226 shares from 114,915 shares. This transaction occurs within a cluster window: 5 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days, suggesting coordinated or sentiment-driven accumulation. De Soto's cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior buys with 100% win rate at the 90-day mark and average 90d return +7.6%, though his same-ticker history at MPB is limited to 5 recent buys (all on 2026-03-12) with outcomes not yet measurable. The stock is trading at $32.37 (current), near the transaction price, down 1.0% over 30 days but up 4.4% over 90 days; valuation is modest at P/E 13.21 against a $750.2M market cap. The cluster activity warrants attention as a potential signal of insiders' view of value or near-term catalysts.

Director De Soto bought 2,590 shares at $30.86 avg; holdings rise 151.6% to 4,299 shares; cluster buy pattern evident

De Soto Matthew G, a director at Mid Penn Bancorp, executed 6 separate open-market purchases on 2026-03-12 totaling 2,590 shares for $79,930.80, with a blended average price of $30.86.

Notably, 2 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days, forming a cluster buy pattern. His prior 5 purchases at MPB show a strong 90-day timing record (4 of 4 measurable outcomes well-timed), and his broader cross-ticker track record across 20 prior buys reflects a 90d win rate of 89.47%, providing meaningful context for assessing the significance of this concentrated share accumulation.

Director John E Noone bought 2,000 shares of MPB at $30.84; continued accumulation pattern mirrors 5 prior purchases all well-timed at 90-day mark

Director John E Noone purchased 2,000 shares at $30.84, bringing total holdings to 49,400 shares—a +4.2% increase. This buy extends a consistent pattern at MPB: all 5 of his prior purchases at this ticker generated positive 90-day returns, with his most recent buy on 2025-11-19 returning +20.1% over that horizon. His cross-ticker track record across 20 prior buys shows a 95.00% 90-day win rate with an average 90-day return of +8.9%. The current price of $31.77 reflects recent weakness (-8.2% from the 52-week high and -8.2% over 30 days), yet the insider continues to add to his position. This persistence in accumulation during a period of price softness, combined with the historical accuracy of his prior entry points at this specific ticker, reflects sustained conviction in the company's medium-term prospects.

Director Brugger buys 818 shares of Mid Penn Bancorp in 2 transactions totaling $25,644.30 at blended $31.35

Thomas R. Brugger, Director, executed 2 separate purchases totaling 818 shares for $25,644.30 on 2026-03-06, at a blended average price of $31.35. The stock currently trades at $31.53, near the blended transaction price, and the position moves from a prior -752 share deficit to 66 shares post-transaction. The buy occurs as the stock is -8.9% from its 52-week high of $34.61 and unchanged over the 30-day window, though up 3.6% over 90 days. At a P/E of 14.53 and market cap of $726.7M, the company shows $18.3M in net income. The purchase itself is factual and open, but the relatively modest position size and the current price proximity to purchase price limit the predictive weight of this transaction.
