OWEN DIANE B 4

What Happened
Diane B. Owen, a director of Foster L B Co (FSTR), had 96 shares withheld on 2026-05-22 to satisfy tax withholding related to her 2025 Annual Director Equity Award. The withholding was at $38.11 per share, a gross value of about $3,659. This was not an open-market sale or purchase by the insider but a routine tax-withholding disposition.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-05-22; Filing date: 2026-05-27 (appears to be filed after the typical 2-business-day Form 4 deadline).
• Price: $38.11 per share; Shares withheld/disposed: 96; Total value ≈ $3,659.
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing summary.
• Footnote: Shares were withheld to pay taxes on the vesting of stock from the 2025 Annual Director Equity Award (tax-withholding transaction, code F).
• This is a withholding (tax payment) rather than an investment decision; it reduces the insider's share count but does not indicate a deliberate market sell.

Context
Tax-withholding via share retention is common when equity awards vest; companies either withhold shares or sell them on-market to cover taxes. Such transactions are routine and generally do not signal the insider’s view on the company's stock. The apparent late filing may be worth noting for disclosure-timing watchlists but does not change the economic character of this transaction.
