Key Details
- Transaction date: May 14, 2026. Form 4 filed: May 18, 2026 (timely file).
- Price per share: $80.70; total reported proceeds: $3,282,715.
- Transaction type/code: D — disposition to the issuer (merger cash-out), not an open-market sale.
- Includes 3,085 restricted stock awards (RSAs); payment with respect to unvested RSAs is subject to vesting conditions per the footnote.
- Shares owned after the transaction: not specified in the filing.
- Cash paid was "without interest" and subject to applicable tax withholding.
Context
- The transaction resulted from the Merger Agreement (NEC Corporation as Parent, Merger Sub merged into CSGS) under which each CSGS share (and each unvested RSA) converted into the right to receive $80.70 in cash. This is a corporate cash-out due to an acquisition rather than an insider-initiated open-market sale, so it reflects merger consideration rather than a trading decision by the insider.
