BankFinancial corrects audit committee disclosure, plans director replacement

BankFinancial Corporation (NASDAQ:BFIN), a $146 million market cap financial institution trading at a P/E ratio of 32.6, reported Wednesday that its proxy statement for the 2025 Annual Meeting of stockholders omitted the fact that Director Glen Wherfel was a member of the company’s Audit Committee as of December 31, 2024, and continuing until the 2025 Annual Meeting. The company clarified that Mr. Wherfel is retiring from board service effective at the 2025 Annual Meeting.

Currently, the Audit Committee is composed of John M. Hausmann, C.P.A., Chairman, Terry R. Wells, and Glen R. Wherfel, C.P.A. All three are independent directors under Nasdaq and Securities and Exchange Commission regulations, according to the company. InvestingPro data shows BFIN has maintained dividend payments for 20 consecutive years, currently offering a 3.42% yield.

BankFinancial stated that its Board of Directors will appoint a replacement for Mr. Wherfel upon his retirement. The company said this will ensure that at least three independent directors constitute the Audit Committee, consistent with its historical practices and applicable listing requirements.

This information is based on a statement included in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
