Moody's (MCO) Director Bruce Van Saun Receives Restricted Stock Awards

What Happened

  • Bruce Van Saun, a director of Moody's Corporation (MCO), was credited with two award-type acquisitions on 2026-03-13 totaling 26.687 shares (8.000 and 18.687). Each line shows a $0.00 per-share price, so no cash was paid; total reported value = $0. These entries reflect dividend reinvestment accruals and dividend equivalents tied to restricted stock/RSU awards, not an open-market purchase.

Key Details

  • Transaction date: 2026-03-13; Form 4 filed: 2026-03-17 (filing occurred four days after the transaction date—insiders normally must file within two business days, so this may be outside the standard window).
  • Reported acquisitions: 8.000 shares @ $0.00 and 18.687 shares @ $0.00 (total 26.687 shares; total $0).
  • Footnotes: F1 = restricted stock deferred dividend reinvestment accrual. F2 = RSU deferred dividend reinvestment accrual and dividend equivalents on an exempt grant of unvested RSUs, which will vest and settle with the underlying award.
  • Shares owned after the transaction: not specified in the information provided in this summary.

Context

  • These are compensation-related entries (award/dividend-equivalent accrual), common for directors receiving dividend reinvestments or RSU-related credits. They reflect bookkeeping/compensation events rather than a market purchase or sale—so they don't directly signal an investment decision to buy or sell shares in the open market.
  • F2 indicates the additional shares are tied to unvested RSUs and will settle when those underlying awards vest.
