DANA (DAN) VP & CAO James Kellett Exercises RSUs; 768 Shares Withheld
What Happened
- James D. Kellett, Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer of DANA Inc. (DAN), had restricted stock units convert/exercise on February 14, 2026. A total of 2,615 shares were issued to him (2,402 + 213) at $0 exercise price (reflecting RSU settlement rather than a cash purchase). To cover tax withholding, 768 of those shares were surrendered/withheld at a per-share value of $33.16, generating a tax withholding amount of $25,467. The net share increase to Kellett equals the issued shares minus the withheld shares.

Context
- This appears to be a routine RSU vest/settlement with net share withholding to cover taxes (common practice), not an open‑market sale. The $0 exercise price entries reflect conversion/settlement of restricted stock units rather than purchase of options. Withholding of shares to satisfy tax liability is administrative and does not necessarily signal a purchase or a judgment about the company’s prospects.
