Riley Christopher Paul 4

What Happened

• Riley Christopher Paul, Executive Vice President of Danaher Corporation (DHR), received an award/settlement of 1,046 shares (performance stock units) on February 4, 2026. The reported acquisition price is $0.00 (grant/settlement), so no cash was paid in this transaction.
• This is an award/acquisition (transaction code A), not an open-market buy or sale.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-02-04; reported price per share: $0.00.
• Shares acquired: 1,046 performance stock units.
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in this Form 4.
• Footnote: The award stems from a February 24, 2023 performance-stock-unit grant; the Compensation Committee determined the performance criteria were met, and the award remains subject to a holding period through December 31, 2027.
• Filing: Form 4 filed 2026-02-06 for a 2026-02-04 transaction (appears timely under typical 2-business-day reporting).

Context

• These were performance stock units (PSUs) awarded based on prior performance criteria — they represent compensation/vesting rather than a market purchase or sale. Such awards indicate the company’s predefined performance targets were met but are not a direct trading signal.
• Because the shares remain subject to a holding period, they cannot be sold immediately, and this transaction does not reflect an insider buying shares on the open market.
