Insider purchase and holdings
Fifth District Bancorp Chief Credit Officer Shane Michael Smith completed a purchase of 2,701 shares of common stock on August 22, 2025, paying $13.45 per share for a total consideration of $36,338. At the time of writing the company’s shares are quoted at $14.83, roughly 10% higher than Smith’s buy price.
In addition to the open-market purchase, Smith was granted 11,118 shares of restricted stock on February 9, 2026, issued at no cost. Those restricted shares carry a vesting schedule of 20% per year, with the first vesting date set for February 9, 2027.
Following the combination of the market purchase and the restricted stock grant, Smith’s reported ownership stands at 18,502 shares held directly and 629 shares held indirectly through a 401(k) plan.
Company performance and valuation note
Fifth District Bancorp is a company with a market capitalization of $78.45 million. Over the last year the stock has produced a 21% return, and the company remains profitable over the last twelve months, according to InvestingPro. That same InvestingPro coverage also indicates that, at current trading levels, the company appears overvalued.
Leadership update
In a separate corporate development, Fifth District Bancorp announced the appointment of Amie L. Lyons as the permanent President and Chief Executive Officer. Lyons, who has been with the company for nearly three decades, had been serving as interim President and CEO since June 2025. The elevation to the permanent role follows the passing of the former President and CEO and reflects Lyons’ extended tenure and experience within the organization.
The company said there are no other major updates or changes reported in its recent activities.
Context and implications
The sequence of insider buying, a restricted stock grant, and a permanent CEO appointment are the principal items disclosed most recently. The disclosed figures and timelines - the August 22, 2025 open-market purchase, the February 9, 2026 restricted grant with a February 9, 2027 vesting start, and current ownership levels - are the factual elements available at present. The company’s market cap, trailing-year return of 21%, and profitability for the last twelve months are reported figures from InvestingPro, which also flags a potential overvaluation at current prices.
