Moh Woon Keat 4

What Happened

• Moh Woon Keat, Senior Vice President and President, CAI at Avient (AVNT), had restricted stock units (RSUs) convert into 3,900 shares on February 17, 2026. To cover tax withholding on the vesting, 2,267 of those shares were withheld at a price of $43.04 per share, resulting in $97,572 withheld. The net shares delivered to him were 1,633 (3,900 vested − 2,267 withheld). The filing shows the derivative conversion/settlement of the RSUs rather than a market purchase or a discretionary sale.

Key Details

• Transaction date: February 17, 2026; Form 4 filed February 19, 2026 (timely).
• Vesting/conversion: 3,900 RSUs converted into 3,900 shares (derivative exercise/conversion, code M).
• Tax withholding: 2,267 shares withheld (code F) at $43.04/share = $97,572.
• Net shares received by insider: 1,633 shares.
• Footnotes: F1 — each RSU equals one share; F2 — includes dividend equivalents; F3 — withheld shares were solely to satisfy tax withholding on the RSU vesting.
• Shares owned after the transaction: not disclosed in the provided excerpt of the filing.

Context

• This was not an open-market sale or purchase to express market sentiment; it reflects routine settlement of RSUs upon vesting. The withholding of shares to cover taxes is common in RSU vesting events (a form of cashless tax payment), not a separate sale for cash proceeds beyond the withholding. The filing appears timely (filed two days after the vesting date).
