On the market, 1 insider bought (1 purchase totalling €9,910) while 7 insiders sold (17 sales totalling €1.5M). On balance, insiders were net sellers of €1.5M. Buying on the open market means paying the going price with one's own funds, a different act from receiving shares as pay. The buyers include 1 senior executive. The largest single trade was a sale of €329k by Boyle Hugh F, published on 29 May 2026, equal to 0.067% of the market capitalisation.
The last purchase on record was published on 18 November 2025, which is 340 days ago. Typically, a trade is published a median of 1 day after it takes place. Section 16 rules allow two business days to file each Form 4. Selling is not necessarily a view on the stock: liquidity needs and diversification are common motives.
For context, the typical company on the same exchange (median of 3,171 companies) published 24 filings over the same period, against 76 filings here. Over the whole record (from 2016), the tally stands at 41 purchases and 96 sales. The 10-K for the year ended 31 December 2025 shows 42.3 m USD of net income and a dividend of 1.00 USD per share.

Sierra Bancorp (ticker: BSRR) is a U.S.-listed regional banking company trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market in the United States. Headquartered in Porterville, California, the company is a bank holding company whose principal subsidiary is Bank of the Sierra. Its business model is centered on traditional relationship banking, with a focus on deposits, commercial lending, consumer banking, and real estate-related credit products tailored to individuals, small businesses, and local commercial clients. ([sec.gov](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1130144/000155837025002056/bsrr-20241231x10k.htm?utm_source=openai))
The holding company itself was formed in November 2000 and became the owner of Bank of the Sierra in August 2001. The operating bank has a much longer history: it was incorporated in 1977 and opened for business in January 1978 in Porterville as a single-branch institution with modest initial capital. Since then, growth has been largely organic, supplemented by selective whole-bank acquisitions including Sierra National Bank, Santa Clara Valley Bank, Coast National Bank, and Ojai Community Bank. ([sec.gov](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1130144/000155837025002056/bsrr-20241231x10k.htm?utm_source=openai))
From a competitive standpoint, Sierra Bancorp is a California-focused regional player with a clearly defined local footprint rather than a broad national platform. Its core market spans the South San Joaquin Valley, the Central Coast, Ventura County, and nearby communities. That geographic concentration supports deep local relationships and gives the franchise exposure to a diversified mix of agricultural, residential, small-business, and commercial banking opportunities. As of December 31, 2024, Bank of the Sierra operated 35 full-service branches plus an online branch, highlighting a distribution strategy that blends physical presence with digital access. ([sec.gov](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1130144/000155837025002056/bsrr-20241231x10k.htm?utm_source=openai))
The main product set includes checking and savings deposits, commercial loans, small-business lending, consumer banking, mortgage-related products, and other standard banking services. Recent SEC disclosures also point to strength in mortgage warehouse activity and new credit extension, indicating that management continues to find opportunities in specialized lending niches beyond core relationship banking. ([sec.gov](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1130144/000155837025009924/bsrr-20250630x10q.htm?utm_source=openai))
Recent milestones include the release of 2025 earnings, a regular quarterly cash dividend declared in January 2026, and continuing emphasis on shareholder returns through a long-running dividend policy. For investors, Sierra Bancorp is best viewed as a disciplined California regional bank with a conservative balance-sheet profile, a long operating history through its banking subsidiary, and earnings sensitivity to local credit conditions, loan demand, and interest-rate dynamics.
