What Happened

• Daniel E. Ellis, EVP, Chief Operating, Development & Marketing Officer of AMC Entertainment Holdings, was granted 402,577 restricted stock units (RSUs) on 2026-09-24. The award is reported as a derivative acquisition at $0.00 per unit (no cash paid at grant). Each RSU represents the right to one share of Class A common stock to be delivered within 30 days after vesting.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-09-24; filing date: 2026-09-28 (filed within the SEC two-business-day window).
• Grant: 402,577 RSUs (transaction code A); reported acquisition price $0.00.
• Vesting: One-third of the RSUs vest in each of January 2027, January 2028 and January 2029, subject to continued service; shares will be issued within 30 days after each vesting date (footnote F1).
• Ownership note: The filing states that when combined with other outstanding and issuable awards, Ellis’s total potential holdings would be 1,301,408 shares (footnote F2). The filing does not show a separate cash value because this is an equity grant, not a market purchase.
• Timeliness: Filing appears timely (within two business days).

Context

• This is an equity award (RSUs), not an open-market purchase or sale. RSU grants are common executive compensation and do not by themselves indicate immediate buying or selling of shares; value is realized only as RSUs vest and convert to shares.
• For retail investors, grants show potential future dilution and executive compensation alignment, but they are not the same signal as an outright purchase of shares by an insider.
