- Transaction Overview: Director John Ladowicz executed an open-market sale of 12,500 shares of Old Second Bancorp on December 9, 2025, for a total of $250,000, indicating consistency in his trading pattern with a median of 13,150 shares sold over the past year.
- Ownership Changes: The sale was made from an IRA-managed indirect holding, leaving his direct ownership unchanged at 36,121 shares, which suggests continued confidence in the company's future without impacting his direct stake.
- Market Performance: The shares were sold at $20.00, slightly above the market open of $19.82 and close of $19.80, reflecting a total return of 12.38% over the past year, outperforming the regional banking ETF's return of 1.6%.
- Company Outlook: Old Second Bancorp completed its integration of Evergreen Bank Group in 2025, and despite a $12 million decrease in net income compared to the previous quarter, its 1.4% dividend yield and 8.5% year-over-year growth indicate strong competitive positioning among regional banks.
