What Happened
Michelle S. Hickox, EVP and Chief Financial Officer of First Financial Bankshares, made two open‑market purchases on March 9, 2026: 1,000 shares at $29.50 and another 1,000 shares at $29.50, for a total of 2,000 shares costing $59,000. These were purchases (transaction code P), which represent insider buying rather than sales.

Key Details

• Transaction dates and prices: 2026-03-09 — 1,000 shares @ $29.50 and 1,000 shares @ $29.50.
• Total acquired: 2,000 shares for $59,000.
• Filing: Form 4 filed 2026-03-11 for the Mar 9 transactions (appears timely within the Form 4 reporting window).
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the information provided.
• No footnotes shown in the provided excerpt (no 10b5-1 plan, tax withholding, gift, or option exercise indicated).

Context
These were straightforward open‑market purchases — insiders buying shares is often viewed as a bullish signal, but the dollar amount here (~$59k) is modest and should be weighed with other information (company performance, larger insider trends, and public filings). The filing appears timely; nothing in the provided details suggests special conditions (e.g., option exercise or 10b5‑1 plan).
