Gartner (IT) EVP Akhil Jain Receives RSU Award; Shares Withheld

What Happened

  • Akhil Jain, EVP, Consulting at Gartner, had RSUs vest on Feb 9, 2026 and received 1,868 shares of common stock (976 + 892). To satisfy tax withholding, 549 of those shares (262 + 287) were withheld/disposed at $159.75 per share, with the reported withholding proceeds totaling $41,855 and $45,848 (combined ~$87,703). The RSU conversions are recorded with exercise/conversion code (M) and the withholding/tax sale with code (F).
  • This is a compensation-related receipt of shares (not an open-market buy), with routine tax-withholding sales. Net shares added to holdings = 1,868 acquired − 549 withheld = 1,319 shares retained.

Key Details

  • Transaction date: 2026-02-09; filing date: 2026-02-11 (Form 4 filed timely).
  • Prices: RSU conversion recorded at $0 (typical for RSU releases); withheld shares sold/withheld at $159.75 per share.
  • Reported withholding proceeds: $41,855 (262 shares) and $45,848 (287 shares); total ~ $87.7K.
  • Footnotes: F1 and F3 = RSUs that vest 1-for-1 in four equal annual installments (grants commencing Feb 9, 2023 and Feb 9, 2024); these entries represent the 2026 installment(s). F2 = shares withheld to pay applicable income and payroll taxes.
  • Shares owned after the transaction: not specified in the supplied transaction details.

Context

  • These were RSU vestings and routine tax-withholding actions — typical compensation events for executives and not a traditional buy/sell expressing market sentiment.
  • For retail investors: RSU releases convert to common stock on a one-for-one basis (here shown as $0 exercise price) and withholding of shares for taxes is a common cashless method to satisfy tax obligations.
