8x8 (EGHT) Director Andrew F. Burton Receives RSU Award

What Happened Andrew F. Burton, a director of 8x8, Inc. (EGHT), was granted 65,533 restricted stock units (RSUs) on August 3, 2026. The Form 4 reports the acquisition as an award at $0.00 per share (award/grant), meaning Burton did not pay for the RSUs; no cash value is reported on the Form 4 itself (market value would depend on EGHT’s share price). This is an equity grant (not an open-market buy or sale).

Context RSU grants are common compensation for directors and executives and do not necessarily signal near-term buying or selling intent. Because these are restricted units (not immediately issued shares) and vest over time subject to continued service (and potential deferral), the economic benefit is realized later if and when vesting and settlement occur.
