Elashmawi Esam 4

What Happened
Esam Elashmawi, Senior Vice President of Marketing & Strategy at Lattice Semiconductor (LSCC), had 2,718 shares withheld by the company to satisfy tax withholding on a vesting installment of restricted stock units. The withholding was executed at $95.62 per share, equivalent to $259,895. This is a tax-withholding disposition (not an open-market sale).

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-02-28; Form 4 filed 2026-03-02 (appears to be within the typical two-business-day reporting window).
• Shares withheld/disposed: 2,718 shares at $95.62 per share = $259,895.
• Transaction code: F — shares retained by the issuer to cover tax withholding on RSU vesting.
• Footnote: The issuer retained exactly the amount needed to meet the tax liability; amount retained was not in excess.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided filing summary.

Context
This was a routine tax-withholding action tied to RSU vesting (a common occurrence when restricted shares vest). It should not be read the same as an open-market sale for cash—it's an administrative disposition to cover taxes rather than a directional trade signal.
