Context
- These entries are merger-related, not ordinary open-market sales. Footnotes state that at the merger Effective Time each PotlatchDeltic common share converted into the right to receive 1.8185 Rayonier common shares plus $0.61 in cash (F1). Outstanding restricted stock units and performance awards similarly converted into Rayonier restricted stock unit awards under the merger terms (F2, F3).
- The reported derivative acquisition (29,797.237 at $0.00) reflects conversion of PotlatchDeltic RSUs into Rayonier RSUs; the subsequent disposition to the issuer is reported as a surrender/disposition to the issuer per the Form 4 (as reported, no further detail on reason—e.g., cash settlement or tax withholding—was provided).
- Because these were merger conversions and related dispositions, they do not indicate a standard insider buy/sell decision in the open market.
