DAUCH DAVID C 4

What Happened
David C. Dauch, Chairman & CEO and a director of Dauch Corp (DCH), received an award of 166,620 shares on 2026-02-28 (grant, code A) at $0.00 per share. On the same date he had 74,646 shares and 146,364 shares reported as disposed (code F) at $6.60 per share to satisfy tax or exercise-related obligations — these withholdings total $492,664 and $966,002 respectively (combined ~$1,458,666). This appears to be an award issuance with shares withheld to cover tax liabilities rather than open-market sales.

Context
Code F transactions typically reflect employer withholding or a cashless/net settlement to cover taxes after an award or option event; they are administrative and do not represent open-market selling. For retail investors, awarded shares offset by tax-withholding are common and should not be interpreted as a directional insider sale of stock in the market.
