Ratajczak Matthew T 4

What Happened
Matthew T. Ratajczak, VP–Global Tax and Treasurer of RPM International (RPM), had 769 restricted shares vest on May 31, 2026 under RPM’s 2014 Omnibus Equity and Incentive Plan. To cover tax obligations he disposed of 224 of those shares back to the issuer (transaction code F — tax withholding) at $105.97 per share, for a reported value of $23,737.

Key Details

• Transaction date: May 31, 2026; Form 4 filed June 2, 2026 (appears timely).
• Disposed: 224 shares at $105.97/share; total value reported $23,737 (withheld to satisfy taxes).
• Vesting: 769 shares vested; 224 were withheld, so 545 vested shares were retained by the reporting person from this award.
• Holdings note: Footnote reports an aggregate that includes 2,055 unvested restricted shares and 6,100 performance‑earned restricted shares. The filing excerpt provided does not list a complete “owned following” total beyond those notes.
• Footnotes: F1 explains the withholding upon vesting; F2 lists unvested and performance shares included in holdings.
• Transaction code F = tax withholding (net/share settlement), not an open‑market sale.

Context
This was a routine net share settlement to cover taxes on a vesting equity award (common practice), not necessarily a directional trade signal. For retail investors, outright purchases by insiders tend to be more informative about sentiment; tax withholdings are administrative and frequent.
