Ha Daisy Y, a member of the board of Hope Bancorp Inc. (NASDAQ: HOPE), reported two separate dispositions of common stock in a Form 4 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The transactions took place on February 5 and 6, 2026, and together involved 56,553 shares, with aggregate proceeds of approximately $708,083.
On February 5, Ha sold 25,533.35 shares at a weighted average price of $12.57 per share. Reported execution prices for that tranche ranged from $12.56 to $12.60. The following day, February 6, she disposed of 31,020 shares at a weighted average price of $12.48, with transaction prices recorded between $11.87 and $12.51.
The Form 4 filing also documents Ha’s remaining holdings after these sales. She retains 452,163 shares of Hope common stock held directly, 141,427 shares held indirectly through a trust, and 56,553.35 shares held jointly by herself and her spouse as trustees of the Kim Ha Living Trust. In addition to these shareholdings, Ha holds options to purchase 24,404 shares of common stock.
These insider sales occurred in the context of Hope Bancorp’s fourth-quarter 2025 financial results, which exceeded consensus analyst expectations. The bank reported earnings per share of $0.27, above the $0.25 forecast, and revenue of $145.76 million versus an expected $142.9 million. The quarterly release therefore reflected performance modestly ahead of market estimates.
Market reaction around the announcement was mixed intraday. The stock registered a slight decline in pre-market trading but later moved higher, rising 1.92% and continuing to advance in after-hours trading, per the trading activity reported around the earnings release.
