TAYLOR CINDY B 4

What Happened

• Cindy B. Taylor, President & CEO and a director of Oil States International (OIS), received an award of 81,998 shares on 2026-02-18 upon vesting of performance-based restricted stock units (RSUs). The shares were issued at $0.00 (award/grant).
• As part of the vesting, 34,726 shares were surrendered to cover tax withholding at an implied price of $9.43 per share, totaling $327,466. Net shares retained from the vesting: 81,998 − 34,726 = 47,272.

Context

• This was not an open-market purchase or sale but the vesting/issuance of previously awarded performance-based RSUs. The surrender of shares to cover taxes is a common, administrative step and does not by itself indicate a buy or sell signal.
