ServiceNow (NOW) CFO Gina Mastantuono Exercises RSUs, Sells Shares

What Happened
Gina Mastantuono, President and Chief Financial Officer of ServiceNow (NOW), had 3,945 restricted stock units (RSUs convert/vest) on May 7, 2026. Of those, 2,121 shares were surrendered to the company to satisfy federal and state tax withholding obligations, resulting in $198,504 withheld. The remaining shares (3,945 − 2,121 = 1,824) were delivered to Mastantuono. The filings show the RSU conversion as a derivative exercise (code M) and the share relinquishment for taxes as a withholding/disposition (code F).

Context
This was not a market purchase but the routine vesting of RSUs and the standard cashless/net-share settlement for taxes. The conversion shows RSUs vested (acquired at $0 cost) and a portion withheld to cover tax liabilities—common practice that does not by itself indicate a buy or sell preference.
