McArthur Michael James 4

What Happened

• Michael McArthur, Vice President and Controller of First Trinity Financial CORP, made an open-market purchase of 4,095 shares on June 29, 2026. The shares were acquired at $3.66 per share for a total cash outlay of $14,988.
• This was a straight purchase (transaction code P), not an option exercise, award, or gift. Purchases can be more informative to investors than sales, though they do not guarantee future performance.

Context

• This was a straightforward buy of common shares on the open market (not a derivative transaction or cashless exercise).
• McArthur is an officer (VP/Controller); this transaction does not indicate whether he is a 10% owner. The purchase size (~$15k) is modest compared with many insider trades and should be interpreted accordingly — factual information for investors, not a prediction of company performance.
