KINGSWAY (KWY) CFO Kent A. Hansen Buys 161 Shares

What Happened

• Kent A. Hansen, Chief Financial Officer and EVP of KINGSWAY Corporation (KWY), acquired 161 shares of common stock on July 15, 2026. The shares were purchased at $9.76 per share for a reported total of $1,571. This was a purchase through the company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), which is generally a routine employee benefit rather than an open-market buy motivated solely by investment views.

Key Details

• Transaction date and price: July 15, 2026 — 161 shares at $9.76 per share.
• Report filed: July 16, 2026 (appears timely; Form 4s are generally due within two business days).
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided filing.
• Footnote F1: Shares were acquired pursuant to Kingsway America Inc.’s ESPP; eligible employee contributions (up to 5% of adjusted salary) and company matching contributions (100% after 12 months’ service) are used to buy shares. The ESPP administrator purchased the shares on the open market through a broker.
• Footnote F2: The filing references restricted stock grants that are included in holdings — 6,909 shares granted Dec 4, 2024 and 14,568 shares granted Mar 17, 2026.

Context

• This purchase reflects participation in the company’s ESPP (payroll contributions and company match) rather than a direct discretionary open-market purchase by the insider. ESPP purchases are common and often small in dollar terms; while purchases can be seen as a positive signal, they do not alone prove insider conviction. The filing shows no indication of a late report or of option exercises, gifts, or 10b5-1 plans in this transaction.
