Why This Fund Dumped a $103 Million Regional Bank Position Amid a 37% Rally
North Reef Capital Management sold its entire 2.875 million share position in Stellar Bancorp for approximately $103.10 million in Q1 2026, despite the stock rallying 37% over the past year. The fund's exit appears to be a profit-taking move ahead of Stellar's planned merger with Prosperity Bancshares expected to close around July 1, 2026, rather than a sign of distress. While Stellar showed solid operational performance with strong loan growth and improved net interest margins, the fund likely sees better risk-reward opportunities elsewhere in the banking sector.
