Basswood Capital Management sold 32.8K shares (82.8% of position) at $39.02 on 2026-06-18 for $1.3M

Basswood Capital Management executed 5 separate sales totaling 32,751 shares for $1,277,944.02, reducing its DCOM position from 39,536 shares to 6,785 shares—a -82.8% reduction in holdings. The sales occurred at $39.02 per share on 2026-06-18, near the 52-week high of $40.76 and well above the 52-week low of $25.62, suggesting a sale near peak valuation. The underlying company shows solid fundamentals: a P/E of 14.15, recent quarterly net income of $34,582,000.00, and annual revenue growth of +19.0%. Cross-ticker, Basswood's prior 20 open-market sales averaged a 90d well-timed rate of 100.00%—all prior sales preceded declines—though no same-ticker historical pattern is provided to evaluate context for this specific transaction.

Basswood Capital Management sold 44.4K shares of DCOM for $1.8M across 3 days, reducing stake by 86.3%

Basswood Capital Management, LLC, a director at Dime Commercial Bancshares, executed 14 separate sales totaling 44,402 shares for $1,762,606.82 between June 12–16, 2026, at prices ranging from $39.29 to $40.08. This liquidation reduced the insider's holdings from 51,442 shares to 7,040 shares—a reduction of 86.3% of pre-transaction holdings. The stock was trading near its 52-week peak ($40.76 high; current $39.40 is -3.3% from peak) and had rallied +10.3% over 30 days and +22.3% over 90 days at the time of the sales. Across the insider's cross-ticker track record, prior sells have exhibited a 100.00% well-timed rate with an average 90-day return of -11.2%, but this metric reflects cumulative patterns across multiple securities, not predictive power for DCOM specifically. The multi-tranche execution over three business days and the scale of the reduction warrant investor attention to determine whether this represents a material shift in insider positioning at the company.

Basswood Capital Management sold 61,835 shares of Regional Management Corp for $2,324,979.16 across 8 transactions.

Basswood Capital Management, a Director at Regional Management Corp, sold 61,835 shares across 8 separate transactions on 2025-12-09 and 2025-12-10, reducing holdings by 37.2% from 166,337 shares to 104,502 shares post-transaction. The sales occurred at prices ranging from $36.68 to $37.80 (blended average $37.60), and at the current price of $39.78, the stock has appreciated 5.8% since these sales. Across the insider's cross-ticker track record, prior sells have averaged +3.2% 30-day returns and +12.6% 90-day returns with a 0.00% well-timed rate, indicating that this insider's prior sales have generally preceded stock gains rather than declines. At Regional Management Corp specifically, all 5 prior measurable trades were sells executed on 2025-11-25 with outcomes not yet determinable. The company trades at a P/E of 9.34 with recent quarterly revenue of $165,487,000 and net income of $14,356,000.

BASSWOOD CAPITAL sold 20,537 shares at $26.25 & bought 20,537 at $26.26 (same-day, $205 spread)

BASSWOOD CAPITAL MANAGEMENT executed a same-day purchase and sale of identical share quantities (20,537 shares each) on 2025-11-04, with a minimal price spread of $26.25 (sale) to $26.26 (purchase), netting a $205.37 loss. This structure—equal buy and sell volumes on the same day at virtually identical prices—is characteristic of a non-discretionary transaction, likely tied to option exercise settlement, restricted stock vesting, or a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan rather than a conviction-driven market decision. The insider's holdings increased to 1,034,158 shares post-transaction, and the stock has declined 27.9% from its 52-week high of $36.59; however, the negligible net position change and the mechanical pricing suggest the transaction does not reflect an insider judgment about current valuation. Given the routine nature of the trade structure and minimal economic effect, this transaction has low investor significance for directional signaling.

Basswood Capital sold 40,500 shares at $27.20; bought 40,500 shares at $27.21—near-identical offsetting trades totaling $1.1M.

BASSWOOD CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, L.L.C., a director, executed 5 separate sales totaling 40,500 shares for $1,101,600.00 and 2 separate purchases totaling 40,500 shares for $1,102,005.00 on the same day (2025-06-09), with transaction prices ranging between $27.20 and $27.21. The trades are numerically offsetting and occurred at virtually identical price points, yielding no net change in position size (165,169 shares held post-transaction) and a de minimis net cash impact of approximately $405. This pattern suggests execution of a structured trading arrangement—potentially a 10b5-1 plan or a pre-arranged exercise and sale—rather than a discretionary market judgment. The offsetting buy-sell structure eliminates exposure to directional price movement and yields no material change in ownership; the timing, volume, and price uniformity across transactions indicate these are coordinated rather than independent decisions. Prior trades at DCOM show mixed outcomes (2 of 5 prior trades well-timed at 90-day mark), but the mechanical nature of today's offsetting trades removes the significance of historical timing patterns from the analysis.

Director BASSWOOD CAPITAL MANAGEMENT bought 968 shares of RM at $36.31 on 2025-02-14, entering position after prior sell

BASSWOOD CAPITAL MANAGEMENT established a 968-share position in Regional Management Corp. at $36.31, near the 52-week high of $36.94. The purchase is notable given the insider's mixed record: across all tickers, 18 prior buys returned -6.0% on average over 30 days and -3.1% over 90 days, with only a 28.57% win rate at the 90-day mark. At RM specifically, the prior three measured buy transactions (May 2024) all posted negative 90-day returns ranging from -4.0% to -5.2%. A concurrent sell executed on 2024-12-11 suggests portfolio activity rather than sustained conviction, and that prior sell deteriorated -7.7% within 30 days. The stock has risen 22.3% over the past 90 days and is now -1.7% from its 52-week high, so this purchase arrives near recent peak valuations despite the insider's historically weak timing record.

Director bought 186 DCOM shares at $31.01; stock down 10.1% in 90 days, insider's cross-ticker buys underperform.

BASSWOOD CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, L.L.C. purchased 186 shares of Dime Community Bancshares at $31.01 on 2025-02-14, increasing holdings by +13.7% to 1,545 shares. The transaction occurs in a market environment where DCOM has declined 10.1% over the prior 90 days and is trading 14.0% below its 52-week high of $36.59. Notably, this director executed both a sell (30 shares on 2025-02-12) and a buy (186 shares on 2025-02-14) within two days, suggesting tactical activity rather than directional conviction. The director's cross-ticker track record shows 18 prior open-market buys with an average 90-day return of -3.1% and a 90-day win rate of 28.57%, indicating a pattern of underperformance after purchases.

Director Basswood Capital sold 9,815 shares at $31.20 on 2025-02-12, reducing stake by 20.4% to 37,147 shares

Basswood Capital Management executed 2 separate transactions on the same date: purchased 316 shares at $31.30 and sold 9,815 shares at $31.20, resulting in a net reduction of 9,499 shares (20.4% of pre-transaction holdings). The $306,228.00 sale proceeds dwarf the $9,890.80 purchase, indicating a material portfolio reduction rather than rebalancing. The stock is currently trading at $31.34, down 14.4% from its 52-week high of $36.59 and down 2.8% over 30 days. While the insider's cross-ticker track record shows mixed timing discipline (33.33% win rate on prior buys, with average 90-day return of -2.8%), his prior trades at DCOM showed one measurable outcome: a November 2024 buy returned +2.0% at the 90-day mark, suggesting some familiarity with DCOM's price patterns. The material reduction in a long-held stake warrants monitoring of subsequent quarterly fundamentals and price trajectory.

Director Basswood Capital Management bought 1,043 shares of DCOM at $31.23 on 2025-01-31, initiating a new position

Basswood Capital Management, a director, purchased 1,043 shares of Dime Community Bancshares at $31.23 on January 31, 2025, establishing an initial position. This represents the second transaction by this insider at DCOM; a prior buy on 2024-11-12 showed a 30-day gain of +8.0%. The current price of $32.01 is 12.5% below the 52-week high of $36.59, placing the stock in the lower range of its annual trading band. The insider's cross-ticker track record shows 19 prior buys with a 41.18% 90-day win rate and average 90-day return of -1.0%, indicating a mixed historical pattern. The company's fundamentals show quarterly revenue of $4,267,000.00, net income of $13,327,000.00, and a P/E ratio of 19.05 against a $1.3B market cap.

Basswood Capital bought 2,671 shares at $34.10 and sold 2,671 shares at $34.04 on 2024-12-11 (net: -$160.26).

Basswood Capital Management engaged in a same-day buy-sell of 2,671 shares at nearly identical prices ($34.10 purchase, $34.04 sale), resulting in a minimal net loss of $160.26. The transactions appear operationally neutral rather than substantive repositioning—the insider maintained a 33,080 share position post-transaction. While RM trades at $33.71 currently (near the 52-week high of $33.97), Basswood's prior trades at RM show a pattern of underperformance: all 5 prior buys in May 2024 generated negative 90-day returns (ranging from -7.8% to -4.0%), and none were well-timed at the 90-day mark. The cross-ticker track record also shows modest headwinds (avg 30d return -4.6%, 90d win rate 47.37%), suggesting this insider has struggled with timing across holdings.
