Open-market purchases and sales (Form 4 codes P and S) by officers, directors and 10% owners, by transaction date, from 2025-01-25 to 2025-05-25. Excludes option exercises, grants, gifts and tax withholding. Amended filings replace the originals; joint filings count once. Foreign private issuers do not file Form 4. Many insider sales are pre-scheduled (10b5-1 plans) and are not by themselves a sign of wrongdoing.

Verified excerpt

"On April 24, 2025, the Audit Committee (the " Audit Committee ") of the Board of Directors of Midland States Bancorp, Inc. (the " Company "), after discussion with management and the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, Crowe LLP, concluded that the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and for each year in the three year period ended December 31,..."

What this means

The company says previously issued financial statements (or the auditor's report on them) should no longer be relied upon (8-K Item 4.02). Non-reliance on the financial statements themselves is one of the most serious accounting red flags: past reported numbers were wrong and will be restated.

Scope: previously issued financial statements

Why this score: also within 90 days: Late quarterly report (NT 10-Q)
