What Happened

• Brian Farley, EVP, Chief Legal & Administrative Officer (CLAO) and Secretary of Acadia Healthcare (ACHC), had 1,770 shares withheld on July 26, 2026 to satisfy a tax liability related to equity compensation. The shares were valued at $34.51 each, totaling $61,083. This was a withholding to cover taxes (not an open-market sale), a common administrative step after option exercises or RSU vesting.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-07-26
• Price per share: $34.51; Shares withheld/disposed: 1,770; Total value: $61,083
• Transaction code: F — payment of exercise price or tax liability by delivery/withholding of securities
• Shares owned after transaction: not provided in the supplied filing details
• Filing date: 2026-07-27 (filed the next day; appears timely)
• Footnote/implication: This withholding is administrative (tax payment), not a market sale that would signal a change in conviction

Context

• Code F withholds shares to satisfy taxes due from an equity award or option exercise. Because the shares were withheld rather than sold on the open market, this action generally does not indicate a bearish view by the insider—it's a routine post-award tax settlement.
