Arora Yuvraj 4

What Happened

• Yuvraj Arora, President, Taste & CCO of International Flavors & Fragrances (IFF), had restricted stock units (RSUs) convert to common shares on April 1, 2026. The filing shows 13,780 RSUs awarded/converted.
• To cover tax liabilities, 2,203 shares were withheld at $72.57 per share (tax withholding value $159,872). The filing also shows a same-day conversion/exercise of 4,305 derivative shares (acquired at $0.00) with a simultaneous disposition of those 4,305 shares at $72.57, generating $312,414. Net retained from this vesting event (13,780 − 2,203 − 4,305) = 7,272 shares retained from the vested batch.
• This activity is primarily an award/vesting event with routine tax withholding and a same-day sale of a portion of the converted shares (not an open-market purchase).

Context
