Church & Dwight (CHD) EVP Patrick De Maynadier Receives Award
What Happened
- Patrick D. De Maynadier, EVP, General Counsel & Secretary of Church & Dwight (CHD), was granted 1,120 performance stock units (PSUs) on 2026-01-27. The filing lists the transaction as an award (code A); no per-share price or immediate cash value is provided because these are PSUs that will settle into common stock after vesting.
Key Details
- Transaction date: 2026-01-27 (Form 4 filed 2026-01-29; appears timely).
- Transaction type/code: Award (A) — 1,120 PSUs granted/earned; price listed as N/A.
- Shares owned after transaction: Not reported in the provided transaction details.
- Footnote: The PSUs were earned based on performance for the period ending 12/31/2025, certified by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee on 1/27/2026. They will vest on 3/1/2026 and settle with delivery of common shares thereafter, subject to continued service through the vesting date (Footnote F1).
- No indication this was part of a 10b5-1 plan, cashless exercise, gift, or tax-withholding event in the excerpt provided.
Context
- PSUs are performance-based awards that convert to shares if predefined goals are met; this grant reflects compensation tied to company performance rather than an open-market buy or sell. Such awards are common for executives and do not by themselves signal an immediate bullish or bearish view by the insider. The eventual number of shares delivered and dollar value will depend on Church & Dwight’s stock price at settlement and any applicable tax-withholding.
