Safian Craig 4

What Happened Craig Safian, EVP & Chief Financial Officer of Gartner Inc. (IT), received the 2026 installment of two RSU awards: 1,308 performance-based RSUs vested on Feb 6, 2026 and 2,058 time‑based RSUs vested on Feb 8, 2026 (total 3,366 shares). To cover withholding taxes, 507 shares (Feb 6) and 694 shares (Feb 8) were retained — those withheld shares were valued at $156.33 each for a combined withholding of $187,752. The RSUs converted one-for-one into common stock (no cash exercise price).

• Net new shares added to Safian’s holding from these events: 3,366 − 1,201 = 2,165 shares (filing does not state total shares owned after transaction).
• Relevant footnotes: F1 = 2026 installment of performance-based RSUs (awarded Feb 6, 2025); F3 = 2026 installment of time-based RSUs (awarded Feb 8, 2025); F2 = shares withheld to pay income/payroll taxes.
• Transaction codes: M = conversion/exercise of derivative (RSU release); F = shares withheld for tax withholding (not an open‑market sale).

Context These entries reflect routine RSU vesting and tax withholding, not open-market sales or purchases. The zero-dollar "exercise" indicates conversion of RSUs into common stock (no cash exercise price). Withheld-share dispositions are standard tax-withholding mechanics and should not be interpreted as a directional trade by the insider.
