- RSU awards to non-employee directors under Ball’s Stock and Cash Incentive Plan (F2).
- Units may be settled in shares or cash under the Deferred Compensation Company Stock Plan and are distributed upon separation (F3, F4).
- The deferred units include company match awards (F5).
- Filing timeliness: Reported on 2026-05-01 for transactions on 2026-04-29 and 2026-04-30 — the filing appears timely (Form 4 is due within two business days of the transaction).
Context
- These transactions are compensation and plan-related (awards and conversions of derivative units), not open-market purchases or sales; amounts reported at $0 reflect grant/settlement accounting rather than a market purchase price.
- The paired disposition and acquisition on 2026-04-30 (3,369 units) likely reflects conversion/settlement mechanics under Ball’s plans (e.g., exercise/settlement and placement into or movement within a deferred compensation vehicle), per the filing’s footnotes. Such routine director awards and plan settlements are common and do not necessarily indicate a market view by the insider.
