The record shows 1 purchase on the open market worth €468k, made by 1 insider, against 9 sales worth €2.1M by 4 insiders. On balance, insiders were net sellers of €1.6M. Buying on the open market means paying the going price with one's own funds, a different act from receiving shares as pay. On the buying side, the filings list 1 senior executive among the declarants. One trade stands out by size: a sale of €578k from Lubow Stuart H, disclosed on 17 February 2026.
The latest purchase dates back some time: it was published 351 days ago, on 6 November 2025. Filings reach the SEC (Form 4) feed a median of 2 days after the trade. US insiders must file a Form 4 within two business days of a trade. Sales are harder to read than purchases, since they often meet personal needs such as tax or diversification.
For context, the typical company on the same exchange (median of 2,023 companies) published 41 filings over the same period, against 79 filings here. Looking back to 2019, when coverage begins, insiders filed 72 purchases and 271 sales. On the fundamentals side, the SEC filing (10-K) for the period ending 31 December 2025 lists net income at 110.7 m USD.

Dime Community Bancshares, Inc. (NYSE/NASDAQ: DCOM) is a U.S. bank holding company headquartered in Hauppauge, New York, United States. It owns Dime Community Bank, a New York State-chartered trust company focused on commercial banking and financial services. For international investors, Dime is best understood as a relationship-oriented regional bank with a strong footprint in the New York metropolitan area, particularly Long Island and the outer boroughs of New York City. The company highlights more than 160 years of service, with its roots tracing back to 1864 through The Dime Savings Bank of Williamsburgh, giving it a long operating history in a highly competitive market.

Dime’s core business is built around deposit gathering, commercial lending, and fee-based banking services tailored to local businesses, consumers, professionals, and municipalities. Its product set includes business checking and savings accounts, treasury management, merchant services, SBA loans, lines of credit, commercial real estate lending, and specialized banking solutions for industries such as real estate and title services, healthcare, accounting, legal services, and certain niche corporate verticals. This focus on relationship banking and on building core deposits is central to the franchise, especially as management has emphasized balance-sheet diversification and commercial growth. ([dime.com](https://www.dime.com/business?utm_source=openai))
Geographically, the bank is concentrated in the northeastern United States, with a network spanning Long Island, the New York City boroughs, and Westchester County. Dime reported 62 branch locations at year-end 2024. Management also describes the bank as the number one deposit market-share holder among community banks on Greater Long Island, a meaningful competitive advantage in a dense regional market where deposit gathering and local relationships matter greatly.

Recent developments indicate an active growth phase. In 2025, Dime expanded its commercial lending platform through targeted hiring, opened a new branch on Madison Avenue in Manhattan, and said it expected additional openings in Lakewood, New Jersey, and on Long Island’s North Shore in early 2026. In February 2026, the company announced plans to rebrand as Dime Commercial Bancshares, Inc. and to transfer its listing to the New York Stock Exchange, subject to shareholder approval. For equity investors, that combination of franchise repositioning, geographic expansion, and a more explicit commercial-banking identity is the key strategic takeaway.
