EPPINGER FREDERICK H 4

What Happened

• Frederick H. Eppinger, a director of Centene Corp (CNC), was granted 1,690 shares as an award on 2026-03-31. The reported acquisition price is $0.00 (total reported value $0), indicating these were granted shares (company compensation), not a market purchase.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-03-31; transaction type: Award/Grant (code A); price per share: $0.00.
• Footnote: Ownership reported in the filing includes 5,965 restricted stock units (RSUs) that remain subject to vesting requirements (see F1).
• Filing: Form 4 filed on 2026-03-31 (same day as the transaction), so the report appears timely.
• The filing does not show a cash purchase or sale; this is a compensation grant rather than an open-market transaction.

Context

• Stock awards and RSUs are typically subject to vesting and other restrictions; they do not necessarily reflect immediate buying or selling activity and should not be taken alone as a signal of insider sentiment.
• For retail investors, grants are useful to monitor for future vesting dates when shares may be delivered and possibly sold, but the filing does not indicate any immediate sale or cashless exercise.
