Pinckney Nancy C. 4

What Happened
Nancy C. Pinckney, an Executive Vice President of Fifth Third Bancorp (FITB), had 1,212 restricted stock unit (RSU) shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations upon vesting. The withholding occurred on 2026-02-19 at a reported share price of $52.90, for a total value of $64,115. This was not an open-market sale or purchase but an administrative tax-withholding disposition (transaction code F).

Key Details

• Transaction date and price: 2026-02-19 at $52.90 per share. Total value: $64,115.
• Transaction type: F — shares withheld to satisfy tax liability on vested RSUs (cashless/withholding settlement, not a market sale).
• Shares owned following the transaction: not specified in the provided filing excerpt.
• Footnote: F1 — Shares withheld for taxes upon vesting of restricted stock units granted to the reporting person on February 19, 2025.
• Filing: Report filed 2026-02-23; appears timely (filed within the expected Form 4 window after the 2026-02-19 transaction).

Context
Withholding shares to cover taxes is a common administrative step when RSUs vest and does not necessarily indicate a change in the insider’s market view. For retail investors, purchase transactions are generally more informative; tax-withholding dispositions are routine and reflect compensation settlement rather than active selling.
