Key Details
- Transaction date: April 21, 2026 (Form 4 filed April 23, 2026). Transaction code: A (award/grant).
- Quantity: 2,257 RSUs; grant price reported as $0.00 (award).
- Value: The filing used the closing price of CHDN common stock on April 21, 2026 to determine the number of RSUs; the filing does not state a cash purchase price.
- Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided filing details.
- Footnotes: RSUs vest one year from the grant date (F1); RSUs have no conversion price or expiration (F2); grant includes RSUs for director service plus dividend equivalents, and equivalent shares are transferred upon completion of the director’s service (F3).
