Speranza Emanuela 4

What Happened

• Emanuela Speranza, Chief Commercial Officer of AMETEK (AME), exercised/converted a total of 574 derivative awards (230 shares on 2026-03-19 and 344 shares on 2026-03-22). No cash exercise price was reported for the conversions. To cover tax withholding, 104 shares were surrendered on 3/19 at $211.50 each ($21,996) and 155 shares were surrendered on 3/22 at $209.37 each ($32,452), for total withholding proceeds of about $54,448. The net result is the settlement of vested awards with a portion of the shares withheld for taxes.

Key Details

• Transaction types: M = exercise/conversion of derivative awards; F = shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding (cashless withholding).
• Dates and counts: 3/19/2026 — 230 shares exercised (acquired) / 104 shares withheld at $211.50 (disposed) = $21,996; 3/22/2026 — 344 shares exercised (acquired) / 155 shares withheld at $209.37 (disposed) = $32,452.
• Total exercised/converted: 574 shares. Total withheld for taxes: 259 shares (~$54.4K).
• Shares owned after the transactions: not specified in the filing.
• Footnotes: F1 = withholding of shares to pay taxes; F2 = remaining restricted stock units (RSUs) will vest on Mar 19, 2027; F3 = the RSUs became exercisable in three equal annual installments beginning Mar 22, 2024.
• Filing timeliness: Form 4 was filed on 2026-03-23 covering transactions on 3/19 and 3/22; the filing appears to be timely.

Context

• These filings reflect the vesting/settlement of company awards (derivative conversion/RSU settlement) rather than an open-market purchase or a discretionary sale of previously owned stock. The withholding of 259 shares to satisfy tax obligations is a common, administrative cashless step and does not necessarily indicate a bullish or bearish signal by the insider.
