What Happened

  • John A. Bryant, a director of Ball Corporation (BALL), received restricted stock units (RSUs) and deferred stock units and also exercised/converted derivative units into shares.
  • Transactions reported: 2,903 RSUs granted on 2026-04-29 (A) at $0; on 2026-04-30 a conversion/exercise (M) showing 3,369 derivative units disposed and 3,369 acquired at $0; and an additional grant of 327.439 deferred stock units on 2026-04-30 (A) at $0. All amounts are reported at $0, reflecting compensation awards or plan settlements rather than cash purchases or open-market sales.

Key Details

  • Dates and amounts:
    • 2026-04-29: Grant of 2,903 RSUs @ $0 (award)
    • 2026-04-30: Exercise/conversion (M) — 3,369 units disposed @ $0 and 3,369 units acquired @ $0
    • 2026-04-30: Grant of 327.439 deferred stock units @ $0
  • Shares owned after the transactions: not disclosed in the provided filing details.
  • Footnotes of note:
    • Each RSU = contingent right to one share of Ball common stock (F1).
    • 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.
