What Happened

• Nathan Creech, President, Americas Division of CRH plc, had one‑third of a 15,369 RSU award vest on May 13, 2026.

To cover tax liabilities, 2,044 shares were withheld/sold, generating proceeds of $222,285 (2,044 × $108.75). The filing also records the conversion/settlement of 5,123 derivative RSUs.

Context

• This was an RSU vesting and net settlement for taxes (routine compensation event), not an open‑market buy or a voluntary large sale. The withholding/sale to cover tax obligations is common following RSU vesting and does not necessarily indicate a view on the company's stock.
