FEINER PHILLIP B 4

What Happened
Phillip B. Feiner, Senior Vice President and General Counsel of Ring Energy, had 12,343 shares of common stock withheld by the company to cover tax withholding obligations arising from the settlement of a restricted stock unit (RSU) award. The withholding was reported as a disposition (transaction code F) on 2026-02-12 at an effective price of $1.21 per share, equal to roughly $14,935. This is a routine tax-withholding event (not an open-market sale or a bullish purchase).

Context
Tax-withholdings on RSU settlements are common and treated as dispositions on Form 4 but generally reflect routine payroll/tax mechanics rather than a deliberate sale signaling insider sentiment. Purchases or open-market sales are typically more informative about an insider’s view of the company than tax-related withholdings.
