Columbia Banking (COLB) EVP Kumi Baruffi Forfeits & Withholds 2,140 Shares

What Happened

  • Kumi Baruffi, EVP General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of Columbia Banking System (COLB), had two dispositions reported on Jan 20, 2026. She forfeited 632 performance-restricted stock unit (PRSU) shares (reported at $0.00) and 1,508 shares were withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations at $28.35 per share, valued at $42,752.
  • These were not open-market sales: the 632 shares were forfeited because performance targets were not met, and the 1,508-share disposition represents shares withheld to cover taxes upon vesting.

Context

  • Forfeitures and tax-withholding are routine administrative actions tied to equity awards and do not indicate an open-market sale or direct decision to monetize shares.
  • Investors typically view purchases as stronger signals than forfeitures or tax withholdings; these entries mainly reflect award vesting outcomes and plan terms.
