What Happened
Eric Baker, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of StubHub Holdings (STUB) and a 10% owner, had 18,128 shares withheld by the company on Feb 10, 2026 to satisfy his tax withholding obligations. The filing reports a per-share value of $10.42, for a total value of approximately $188,894. The filing notes this was a withholding to cover taxes (code F), not an open‑market sale.

Key Details

  • Transaction date: 2026-02-10; Filing date: 2026-02-12 (filed timely).
  • Reported amount withheld: 18,128 shares at $10.42 each (total ≈ $188,894).
  • Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing excerpt.
  • Footnote: F1 — shares were withheld by the company to satisfy the reporting person's tax withholding obligations; explicitly noted as not a market sale.
  • Transaction code F indicates tax withholding/cashless share retention.

Context
This is a routine cashless withholding to cover taxes, commonly following an option exercise or equity vesting; the Form 4 shows the withholding itself rather than a sale into the market. As a 10% owner and CEO, Baker’s transactions are closely reported, but this withholding should not be read as a bearish market sell — it’s a tax-related administrative action.
