Minerals Technologies SVP Jonathan Hastings Exercises Awards, Sells Shares
What Happened
- Jonathan J. Hastings, Senior Vice President of Minerals Technologies Inc. (MTX), converted 6,164 deferred restricted stock units (DRSUs) into common shares in two exercises (3,113 on Jan 23, 2026 and 3,051 on Jan 26, 2026).
- To satisfy tax withholding obligations, the company withheld 1,354 shares on Jan 23 at $68.77/share ($93,115) and 1,327 shares on Jan 26 at $68.89/share ($91,417), totaling 2,681 shares withheld and ~$184,532 in tax withholding.

Context
- DRSU conversion and tax-withholding: Converting vested DRSUs into shares and having the employer withhold shares to cover taxes is common and administrative (a cashless settlement), not necessarily a signal of the insider buying or selling stock for investment reasons.
- These transactions reflect award vesting/settlement rather than an open-market sale or purchase; retail investors should view them as routine compensation-related activity.
