What Happened Peter J. Bragdon, President of Columbia Sportswear Co.

Key Details

• Transaction date: Feb 2, 2026; Form 4 filed Feb 4, 2026 (timely filing).
• Vesting/conversion: 421 shares and 464 shares (total 885) from RSU grants (see footnotes re: 12.5% semiannual vesting schedules).
• Tax withholding: 340 shares withheld by the issuer at $55.33/share = $18,812 (footnote indicates withholding to satisfy tax obligations).
• Post-transaction shares: filing does not state total shares beneficially owned after the transaction.
• Relevant footnotes: F1 (RSUs convert 1:1), F2 (shares withheld for tax), F3 (some shares held by reporting person's children; disclaimed beneficial ownership), F4/F5 (vesting schedules for the two RSU grants).
• Transaction codes: M = conversion/exercise of derivative (RSU conversion); F = payment of tax liability via share withholding.

Context This was a routine RSU vesting event with a cashless withholding to cover taxes, not an open-market sale or purchase. Such withholding is common and doesn't, by itself, signal insider buying or selling intent. The sizes (421 and 464) match scheduled semiannual vesting tranches from prior RSU grants.
