Marzetti (MZTI) Chief Supply Chain Officer Receives Award; 152 Shares Withheld

What Happened

• Luis Viso, Chief Supply Chain Officer, received a 527-share award (transaction code A) on 2026-08-25. Those shares were reported at $0.00 per share (award/grant).
• On the same date, 152 shares were surrendered/withheld under transaction code F to satisfy an exercise price or tax liability at $116.05 per share, totaling $17,640.
• Net shares delivered to the insider from this award = 527 − 152 = 375 shares. This is an award/grant event (not a market purchase); the withholding is a routine tax/payment action, not an open-market sale.

Key Details

• Transaction dates: 2026-08-25 (award and withholding).
• Award: 527 shares @ $0.00. Withholding: 152 shares @ $116.05 = $17,640.
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing data.
• Codes/notes: A = award/grant; F = payment of exercise price or tax liability (here used for share withholding to cover taxes).

Context

• Grants and share-withholdings for taxes are common forms of executive compensation and tax settlement; they do not necessarily signal a buy or sell decision about the company’s outlook.
• Because the award is not an open-market purchase, it’s generally less informative about the insider’s market sentiment than a direct purchase would be.
