What Happened
- William McGloin, Chief Accounting Officer of Frontier Communications Parent, Inc. (FYBR), had a total of 23,635 shares/equivalents disposed to the issuer on Jan 20, 2026 as part of Frontier's merger into Verizon.
- Of those, 17,077 awards were vested/cancelled and cashed out at the merger price of $38.50 per share (17,077 × $38.50 ≈ $657,465). The remaining 6,558 award units were converted into unvested Parent restricted stock units (Parent RSUs) using the merger exchange ratio (38.5 / 39.7141 ≈ 0.97), resulting in roughly 6,361 Parent RSUs (approximate).
- These were dispositions to the issuer under the Merger Agreement (not open-market sales). The cash and conversions reflect treatment of outstanding shares, vested RSUs/PSUs, and remaining RSU/PSU portions at the effective time of the merger.

Context
- These actions resulted from the Merger Agreement (Frontier merged into a Verizon subsidiary). Outstanding common shares were converted into the right to receive $38.50 per share in cash; certain RSUs/PSUs were cashed out if vested or converted into Parent RSUs if unvested.
- This is a corporate-merger-driven disposition (routine treatment of awards at closing), not an open-market sale by the insider — it does not necessarily indicate the insider’s view of future stock performance.
