GAMBLE JOHN W JR 4

What Happened

• John W. Gamble Jr., EVP, CFO & COO of Equifax (EFX), received an award of 10,983 shares (code A) on 2026-02-10 at $0.00—typical of restricted stock unit (RSU) vesting or a compensation grant.
• To cover the tax liability on that award, 7,121 shares were withheld (code F) at an implicit value of $202.71 per share, totaling $1,443,498. Net shares delivered to Mr. Gamble after withholding: 3,862 (10,983 − 7,121).
• This is a compensation-related issuance with shares withheld for taxes (not an open-market sale), so it’s a routine, non-investment-directional event.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-02-10; Filing date (Form 4): 2026-02-12.
• Award: 10,983 shares @ $0.00 (acquired).
• Tax withholding: 7,121 shares @ $202.71 (disposed) = $1,443,498.
• Net shares retained by insider: 3,862.
• Footnote: Includes accrued dividend equivalent units reinvested into corresponding RSUs through the company’s last dividend payment date.
• Filing timeliness: Form filed Feb 12 covering the Feb 10 transactions (no late filing indicated in the report provided).

Context

• This appears to be a standard RSU vesting event with net-share settlement for tax withholding. The withheld shares were used to satisfy tax obligations, not sold on the open market, so this does not signal a typical insider "sale" decision.
• For retail investors, compensation-related grants are routine and reflect pay delivery rather than a direct endorsement or rejection of the stock.
