The reported transaction is an award/acquisition (derivative) at $0.00 per unit (no cash paid at grant). These RSUs represent a conditional right to receive one share of Hexcel common stock per unit when/if they vest or convert.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-05-18; Form 4 filed: 2026-05-19 (filed one day after the grant; appears timely).
• Reported consideration: $0.00 per RSU (transaction code A — award/grant).
• Shares acquired: 1,792 RSUs (derivative interest); total reported cash paid = $0.
• Shares owned after transaction: not provided in the supplied data.
• Footnotes: (1) Each RSU equals a conditional right to one share. (2) RSUs vest on the earlier of (a) the first anniversary of the grant date or (b) the date immediately prior to the next annual meeting; per the reporting person’s deferral election, the RSUs will be converted into shares following the date the reporting person ceases to be a board member.

Context

• RSU grants to directors are common as compensation and do not involve immediate open-market buying or selling. Because these are deferred/conditional awards (not outright purchases), they do not directly signal a near-term buy/sell decision by the insider.
