What Happened
Sunita Holzer, Chief Human Relations Officer of Verisk Analytics (VRSK), received stock awards that settled on January 14–15, 2026 and had shares withheld to cover tax liabilities. The filing reports acquisitions (awards) of 4,800 shares (1/14), 1,261 shares (1/15), and 5,782 shares (1/15, derivative/RSU-type), for a total of 11,843 shares acquired. To pay taxes on the vesting, 1,764 shares were withheld on 1/14 at $223.69/share (value $394,589) and 408 shares were withheld on 1/15 at $222.05/share (value $90,596), a combined withholding value of $485,185. These were award settlements and tax-withholding transactions, not open-market sales.

  • Footnotes of note:
    • F1/F2: Some shares were issued upon settlement of performance stock units (PSUs) granted Jan 15, 2023; vesting depended on relative TSR and ROIC performance and service.
    • F3/F4: Other shares are restricted stock units (RSUs) that vest over time; withholding shares were used to pay tax liabilities on vesting.
    • F5/F6 (included in filing): describe option grant/vesting schedule but no option exercises/sales were reported here.
  • Filing timeliness: the Form 4 was filed on Jan 23 for transactions on Jan 14–15 and appears later than the usual two-business-day Form 4 reporting window.

Context
These transactions reflect routine award vesting and cashless tax-withholding (shares withheld to cover taxes), which are administrative and do not equate to an open-market sale or buy signal. The PSU-related shares were performance-based (F1), meaning some awards vested based on prior performance metrics and service; the RSU entries vest per their multi-year schedule.
