Equinix (EQIX) Exec Chairman Charles J. Meyers Sells 305 Shares

What Happened

  • Charles J. Meyers, Director and Executive Chairman of Equinix (EQIX), received 305 fully vested restricted stock units (RSUs) as a 2025 annual incentive award on March 11, 2026, which were converted into common shares and then sold. The 305 shares were sold on March 12, 2026 in an open-market transaction at $961.19 per share for total proceeds of approximately $293,163.
  • The RSU grant was approved because performance criteria were met under the 2025 Annual Incentive Plan; the award vests immediately and was delivered/converted prior to the sale. The exercise/conversion records show $0.00 per-share cost (typical for RSU settlement).

Key Details

  • Transaction dates and prices: Grant/conversion on 2026-03-11; sale on 2026-03-12 at $961.19 per share; total sale ≈ $293,163.
  • Shares owned after the transaction: not provided in the supplied filing excerpt.
  • Footnotes: (F1) Sale was executed pursuant to a 10b5-1 trading plan. (F2) Award was a performance-based RSU under the 2025 Annual Incentive Plan and was granted after performance criteria were met. (F3) The RSU award expires upon the reporting person’s termination of service.
  • Filing: Form 4 was filed 2026-03-13 for transactions on 2026-03-11/03-12 — this appears timely (Form 4 is generally due within two business days of the reportable transaction).

Context

  • These entries reflect a grant of fully vested RSUs that were converted into common shares and then sold — effectively a grant followed by a disposition, not a cash purchase (no outlay by the insider).
  • The sale was executed under a pre-established 10b5-1 plan, which is a routine mechanism insiders use to sell shares according to a pre-set schedule and is not, by itself, a statement of the insider’s view on the company.
