FUSB Exec Eric Mabowitz Exercises Options, Shares Withheld for Taxes

What Happened

  • Eric H. Mabowitz, SEVP, Chief Risk Officer, Chief Compliance Officer & CRA Officer of First US Bancshares, exercised a total of 11,600 stock options on 2026-07-08, acquiring 11,600 shares. The exercises show option strike amounts of $14.11 (5,000 shares), $11.71 (3,600 shares) and $10.01 (3,000 shares) for a combined exercise cost of $142,736.
  • To satisfy tax and/or exercise-price obligations, 9,353 shares were surrendered/withheld (reported as dispositions) at a market/withholding price of $16.95, with a total value of approximately $158,533. After withholding, Mabowitz retained a net 2,247 shares from these transactions.
  • These are option-exercise transactions (code M) with accompanying tax-withholding/share-for-tax entries (code F); not an open-market purchase or sale for investment purposes.

Context

  • This is an options exercise with shares withheld to cover tax/withholding obligations (a common cashless-type result), not a directional open-market purchase or sale by the insider. The derivative entries reported at $0 reflect cancellation of the exercised options.
  • For retail investors: exercises followed by withholding are routine and do not necessarily signal a bullish or bearish view; they often reflect option vesting and standard tax withholding practices.
