Key Details

• Transaction date and price: 2026-06-30; 789 units at $76.05 per unit (total $60,003).
• Shares owned after transaction: Not disclosed in this Form 4.
• Footnote: These are restricted stock units that will vest in full on June 30, 2027. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of Synchrony common stock (see footnote F1).
• Filing date/timeliness: Form 4 filed on 2026-07-02 (two days after the transaction); this appears to be timely under Form 4 reporting rules.

Context This was a compensation award (RSUs) to a board director, which is common for aligning director interests with shareholders. Because the units vest one year from grant, they do not represent immediately tradable shares and should be viewed as future potential share issuance rather than a current market purchase or sale.
