Batra Udit 4

What Happened

• Udit Batra, President & CEO and Director of Waters Corp (WAT), had 3,417 shares withheld by the company on 2026-03-02 to satisfy tax withholding tied to the vesting and settlement of previously reported performance stock units. The shares were valued at $307.23 each for a total of $1,049,805.
• This was a tax-withholding disposition (not an open-market sale) and is routine when equity awards vest; it does not necessarily reflect a decision to sell additional shares in the market.
