Key Details
- Transaction date reported: February 24, 2026; Form 4 filed Feb 26, 2026 (within the typical 2-business-day reporting window).

- Footnotes of note:
- F1: The 5,043 units are PBRSUs granted Feb 27, 2023 tied to a three‑year adjusted ROE metric; the performance result was certified at 150% on Feb 24, 2026. These remain subject to time‑based vesting and will vest Feb 27, 2026.

- F3: The 3,025 units are restricted stock units that vest on the third anniversary of the grant.

- No 10b5‑1 trading plan, tax‑withholding sale, or late‑filing indication appears in the provided details.
Context
- These are grants/awards (not open‑market purchases or sales). Performance‑based RSUs (PBRSUs) had their performance results certified on Feb 24, 2026 — one PBRSU payout was increased to 150% of target and another certified at 100% of target; both remain subject to the final time vesting date (Feb 27, 2026).
- The derivative line refers to option-like awards that vest over time (per footnote); the filing does not indicate any immediate sale of vested shares or cashless exercise.
- For retail investors: awards are routine executive compensation and do not necessarily signal an immediate bullish or bearish view by the insider. They do, however, increase the insider’s future stake if they vest and are not sold.
