Mancuso Salvatore 4

What Happened
Salvatore Mancuso, CEO of Altria Group, was awarded 40,634 restricted stock units (RSUs) on May 13, 2026. The Form 4 reports the acquisition as an award (code A) at $0.00 per share (typical for RSU grants); the immediate cash value is not listed because RSUs vest over time under plan terms. This is a grant of equity compensation, not an open-market purchase or sale.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-05-13; Form 4 filed: 2026-05-15 (filed within the normal 2-business-day reporting window).
• Transaction type/code: Award/Grant (A). Price reported: $0.00 per share. Shares acquired: 40,634 RSUs.
• Footnote F1: RSUs were awarded under the issuer’s equity compensation plans.
• Footnote F2: The filing notes a total that includes 123,819 RSUs (this appears to be the aggregate RSUs reported for the insider).
• Footnote F3: Some shares are held in the Altria Deferred Profit-Sharing Plan.
• Shares owned after transaction: the filing does not specify a cash-equivalent value; aggregate RSU total is referenced in F2 but the full beneficial ownership count should be checked in the Form 4 filing for exact post-transaction holdings.

Context
RSU awards are a common form of executive compensation; they typically vest over time and do not represent an immediate open-market purchase or sale. Because RSUs convert to shares only when vested (and may be subject to tax withholding or deferral in plans), an RSU grant is different from a direct buy/sell and should be interpreted as compensation rather than a direct market sentiment signal.
