Robert W. Schafer, a director of U.S. Gold Corp. (USAU), received equity awards on 2026-09-28: 4,789 restricted stock units (RSUs) and 8,324 stock options. Both grants are reported with an acquisition price of $0 (standard for awards) and are recorded as grant/award transactions rather than purchases or sales.

Key Details

• Transaction date(s): 2026-09-28 (reported on Form 4 filed 2026-09-29). Filing was submitted the next day (timely).
• Grants: 4,789 RSUs (non-derivative award) and 8,324 options (derivative award). Reported acquisition price: $0 for each grant.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the filing.
• Footnotes:
  • F1: The 4,789 RSUs vest on the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to continuous service.
  • F2: The 8,324 options likewise vest on the first anniversary, subject to continuous service.
• Other notes: No exercise or sale occurred; these are grant awards. No 10b5-1 plan, tax-withholding sale, or late filing was indicated.

Context
RSUs typically convert into actual shares when they vest, and options give the holder the right to buy shares at an exercise price (the filing does not state the option strike price). Because both awards vest one year after grant and require continued service, the awards do not represent immediately tradable shares and are not direct purchases or sales of stock. Grants like these are common executive/director compensation and should be viewed as retention/compensation actions rather than immediate insider buying or selling.
