Hanover Bancorp (HNVR) FSVP Lisa Diiorio Exercises Options

What Happened

  • Lisa A. Diiorio, First Senior Vice President & Chief Accounting Officer, exercised 6,000 stock options on 2026-05-01 at an exercise price of $13.00 per share, paying $78,000. To satisfy tax withholding, 3,879 of the newly issued shares were withheld/treated as disposed at $23.72 each (value $92,010). The related option instrument was extinguished as part of the exercise. Net new shares delivered to her: 2,121 (6,000 exercised − 3,879 withheld).
  • This is an option exercise (acquisition) with routine tax withholding (disposition), not an open-market buy or discretionary sale.

Context

  • This appears to be a cashless/net-share settlement of an option exercise: shares were issued on exercise and a portion withheld to cover tax obligations. Such withholding is a routine administrative step and does not necessarily signal the insider is reducing their overall stake in the company beyond the withheld portion.
  • Purchases or exercises that result in net share increases (here, +2,121 shares) are generally more informative to investors than routine withholdings, but do not alone indicate the insider’s view of the company’s prospects.
