Peoples Bancorp Inc: what insiders have been doing
This page follows insider dealings at Peoples Bancorp Inc as filed with SEC (Form 4), a company from the Finance & Banking sector. The last twelve months, up to 18 October 2026, brought 82 filings signed by 19 insiders.
The record shows 10 purchases on the open market worth €185k, made by 5 insiders, against 7 sales worth €294k by 3 insiders. Netting one side against the other leaves €109k of net selling. A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. On the buying side, the filings list 4 senior executives and 1 chief executive among the declarants. Biggest ticket of the year: €107k, sold by Edgell Matthew and made public on 7 August 2026 (0.0087% of market cap).
In all, 7 purchases were made within 30 days of a purchase by another insider of the company. Purchases made close together by different insiders form what is called a cluster. The last insider purchase was made public on 27 July 2026, 83 days ago. Typically, a trade is published a median of 2 days after it takes place. US insiders must file a Form 4 within two business days of a trade.
With 82 filings in twelve months, the company is more active than the median of 19 filings across the 5,813 companies we follow on the same exchange. The full history, which starts in 2016, counts 43 purchases against 54 sales. In its latest annual report filed with the SEC (10-K, fiscal year ended 31 December 2025), the company reported net income of 106.8 m USD, with a dividend of 1.63 USD per share.

About Peoples Bancorp Inc
Peoples Bancorp Inc. (ticker: PEBO) is a U.S.-based diversified financial services holding company listed on the Nasdaq market in the United States. For investors in Europe, it represents a regional banking franchise with a broader product mix than a traditional local lender. The company is headquartered in Marietta, Ohio, and has operated from that location since 1902, giving it more than a century of operating history and a well-established community-bank identity. ([investors.peoplesbancorp.com](https://investors.peoplesbancorp.com/overview/default.aspx))
Peoples Bancorp operates primarily through Peoples Bank and several specialized subsidiaries. Its platform includes consumer and commercial banking, deposit products, commercial and residential lending, wealth management, trust and investment services, insurance, premium finance, and equipment leasing. That mix makes the group more diversified than a plain-vanilla retail bank, with revenues coming from both net interest income and fee-based businesses. For investors, this can be attractive because it offers multiple earnings drivers and some exposure to specialized financial niches. ([investors.peoplesbancorp.com](https://investors.peoplesbancorp.com/overview/default.aspx))

Geographically, the company maintains a regional footprint of about 145 locations, including 127 full-service bank branches across Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky, Virginia, Washington, D.C., and Maryland. This makes PEBO a meaningful regional institution rather than a nationally scaled bank, with a business model anchored in local relationships, deposit gathering, and middle-market lending. As of March 31, 2026, management reported approximately $9.6 billion in total assets, placing the company in the mid-sized U.S. regional bank category. ([investors.peoplesbancorp.com](https://investors.peoplesbancorp.com/overview/default.aspx))
From a competitive standpoint, Peoples Bancorp competes in the community and regional banking segment, where relationship banking, underwriting discipline, and cross-selling matter as much as scale. The company’s stated vision is to be “The Best Community Bank in America,” which highlights a strategy focused on customer service, localized decision-making, and broader financial solutions rather than pure balance-sheet expansion. ([investors.peoplesbancorp.com](https://investors.peoplesbancorp.com/overview/default.aspx))
Recent developments are important for assessing the investment case. On January 20, 2026, Peoples Bancorp reported fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 results, including fourth-quarter net income of $31.8 million and diluted EPS of $0.89. Management also pointed to solid loan growth, while net interest margin remained under pressure and credit-loss provisions increased. In April 2026, the company announced a definitive agreement to acquire Citizens National Corporation, reinforcing its long-running consolidation strategy in adjacent regional markets. These recent events suggest a bank that is still expanding, but doing so through a mix of organic growth, disciplined credit management, and selective M&A.
