Director Sells Stock Amid Bank Growth | Business and Finance News

George W. Cummings III cashed in $319K by selling 10K shares of Business First Bancshares, still holding over 215K — a move seen as cautious profit-taking, not exit. The stock’s up 24% this year, and his recent hire came after his prior firm was acquired by the bank, which just expanded via deals with Progressive Bancorp and a consulting firm. His spouse didn’t sell, hinting at continued confidence. While the sale raises eyebrows, the bank’s growth momentum shows it’s still building — a mixed but bullish signal in regional finance.
