Kawaguchi Masao 4

What Happened

• Kawaguchi Masao, an executive officer at Honda Motor Co., received an award/acquisition of 5,700 shares on 2026-05-15. The filing reports a per-share amount of $9.02, for a total reported value of $51,414. The underlying price was ¥1,430 per share; the dollar figure was converted using the Telegraphic Transfer Middle Rate (TTM) on the transaction date (Footnote F1).
• This transaction is coded as an award/grant (A) — a compensation-related acquisition rather than an open-market purchase. Awards are common compensation elements and do not necessarily signal the insider’s personal buying or selling intent.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-05-15; Form 4 filed: 2026-06-02 (filed 18 days after the transaction; Form 4s are normally due within two business days, so this appears to be a late filing).
• Shares acquired: 5,700 at reported $9.02 per share (¥1,430 per share, converted via TTM) — total reported value $51,414.
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing summary.
• Footnote: F1 — purchase price shown in USD was converted from ¥1,430 using the TTM rate on the transaction date.

Context

• Awards/grants are typically part of executive compensation (salary, bonus, or long-term incentives) and are different from open-market purchases; they are primarily administrative/compensatory and should not be read as a direct market-confidence signal.
