HOU HONG Q 4

What Happened Hou Hong Q, President & CEO and a director of Semtech Corp (SMTC), received an award/grant of 1,067 shares on April 6, 2026. The filing reports an acquisition price of $0.00 for the shares (transaction code A = Award/Grant), so the Form 4 records $0 as the purchase value. This was a grant/award (compensation), not an open-market purchase or sale.

• Transaction code: A (award/grant).
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing excerpt.
• Footnotes/notable items: no 10b5-1 plan, tax-withholding, cashless sale, or other special conditions listed in the provided data.

Context An award/grant (often RSUs or restricted stock) means the shares were issued as compensation; they may be subject to vesting and could convert to vested shares later. Because the reported acquisition price is $0, the economic value to the insider depends on the shares’ future vesting and the market price when vested or sold. Awards are routine executive compensation and do not by themselves indicate an immediate buying or selling signal.
