AMD SVP Ava Hahn Receives RSUs; Shares Withheld for Taxes

What Happened
Ava Hahn, Senior Vice President, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary of Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), had 1,133 restricted stock units (RSUs convert to common shares) release on August 9, 2026. Of those shares, 562 were withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations at a reported value of $483.36 per share (total ~$271,648). The filing shows the RSUs converting into shares and the withholding of a portion for taxes — this is a routine vesting/tax-withholding event, not an open-market sale or purchase.

Key Details

• Transaction date: August 9, 2026; Form 4 filed August 11, 2026 (timely filing).
• RSU conversion: 1,133 RSUs converted to 1,133 shares (reported at $0 exercise price because RSUs convert to shares).
• Tax withholding: 562 shares withheld at $483.36/share = $271,648 (reported as Payment of exercise price or tax liability).
• RSU terms: Each RSU equals one contingent share; vesting schedule is 1/4 on each of Aug 9, 2025, 2026, 2027 and 2028.
• Shares owned after the transaction: not specified in the provided filing details.
• Transaction codes: M = exercise/conversion of derivative (RSU release); F = shares withheld for tax withholding.

Context
This was a standard RSU vest and tax-withholding (cashless-like) event — common for executives when restricted shares vest. Withholding shares to cover taxes is administrative and does not necessarily signal buying or selling intent in the open market. The withheld amount (~$271k) is modest relative to typical executive holdings; no open-market sale or new purchase was reported.
