Key Details

  • Transaction date: 2026-02-15; Filing date: 2026-02-18.
  • Shares acquired (exercise/conversion): 79,872 (code M). Shares withheld for taxes: 24,431 at $14.12/share; total value withheld = $344,966 (code F).
  • Footnotes: F1 = Settlement of Restricted Stock Units into common stock under Ford’s Long-Term Incentive Plan. F2 = Shares withheld to cover income tax liabilities from that settlement.
  • Shares owned after the transaction: Not disclosed in the excerpt of the filing.

Context

  • This appears to be a routine settlement of awards and tax withholding rather than an open-market purchase or sale. The conversion/exercise generated shares for Amend, and the company withheld shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations (a common practice).
  • Such settlements and withholding actions are administrative and do not necessarily signal the insider’s view on the stock; purchases (open-market buys) are generally more informative about bullish sentiment.
