Expedia (EXPE) Chairman Barry Diller Receives Shares; $1.5M Tax Withholding

What Happened

• Barry Diller, Chairman and Senior Executive of Expedia Group (EXPE), had restricted stock units (RSUs) convert/vest on August 15, 2026, resulting in the acquisition of 8,184 shares (3,940 + 1,601 + 1,473 + 1,170). Because these were RSU conversions, the reported acquisition price per share is $0.00. To cover tax withholding, 4,528 shares were surrendered (withheld) at an imputed price of $332.69 per share, totaling $1,506,420.
