Hilltop Holdings’ Chief Accounting Officer, Keith E. Bornemann, sold 2,200 shares in an open-market transaction on Nov. 25, 2025, valued at $77,000. This represents 20.2% of his direct ownership immediately prior to the sale. The transaction aligns with his historical selling activity and was executed at $35.0 per share, slightly above the market close price.

Hilltop Holdings, a regional bank, has seen a decline in revenue and profits since 2020. However, this year has shown a positive turnaround in both areas, with the best total revenue and EPS in nearly four years. The stock has appreciated 11% over the last 12 months, but a cooling housing market may impact future mortgage origination volumes.

The company’s multi-segment model spans banking, broker-dealer, and mortgage origination, generating revenue from various financial products. Bornemann’s recent stock sale, amounting to a fifth of his total holdings, may hint at insider confidence concerns. The insider’s lack of confidence may reflect potential future stock appreciation doubts.

The market values Hilltop Holdings at 0.98 times its book value and 14 times its trailing 12-month earnings, indicating cautious investor sentiment. Despite recent positive financial performance, the company faces challenges from a cooling housing market impacting mortgage origination volumes. Bornemann’s sale, although not unusual historically, may signal concerns about the stock’s future potential.
