Church & Dwight (CHD) EVP Kevin Gokey Receives Award — 460 Shares
What Happened
- Kevin Gokey, EVP & Chief Information Officer of Church & Dwight (CHD), was credited with 460 shares on a Form 4 dated 2026-03-03 reporting a transaction on 2026-01-27. The report shows the shares acquired at $0 because these were performance stock units (PSUs) earned under compensation awards, not an open-market purchase or cash transaction.
- The PSUs were certified as earned by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee on January 27, 2026, will vest on March 1, 2026, and will settle with delivery of common shares thereafter, subject to continued service. This amended filing clarifies the PSUs were paid at 200% of target (resulting in 460 shares).
Key Details
- Transaction date reported: 2026-01-27; Form 4 filed (amendment) on 2026-03-03.
- Reported acquisition: 460 shares at $0.00 (award/settlement of PSUs).
- The PSUs could have paid 0–200% of target; this amendment states they were paid at the maximum 200% level.
- Footnote: Holdings were adjusted to reflect shares added to the reporting person's Savings and Profit Sharing account.
- Filing type: Amended Form 4 to reflect final PSU payout; the filing does not indicate an open-market trade.
Context
- PSUs are a form of compensation tied to company performance; receiving them is not the same signal as buying stock on the open market. The Form 4 reports award/settlement details but not a cash purchase price.
- Vesting and settlement occur later (vest date March 1, 2026, with share delivery after that), and tax withholding or transfer to savings plans can affect the timing and final share count delivered to the insider.
