What Happened

• Barry David, Chief Operating Officer of Fortune Brands Innovations, was granted a derivative award on 2026-07-01 consisting of options covering 25,000 shares. The Form 4 records the acquisition at $0.00 (typical for option grants); this was an award under the issuer's Long-Term Incentive Plan rather than an open-market purchase or sale.

• Transaction type: Award/Grant of options (derivative) — 25,000 shares; reported acquisition price $0.00 on the Form 4.

Context

• This is a standard executive compensation award (options) and not an immediate purchase or sale of shares. The options will vest over three years (one-third each year beginning 7/1/2027); exercise price and full grant terms are set by the LTIP and are not detailed in the summarized Form 4. Such grants are common for aligning executive incentives with long-term shareholder value and do not by themselves indicate immediate buying or selling intent.
