AI-generated summary of this filing
Dynatrace (DT) CFO Benson Converts RSUs; 5,308 Shares Withheld
What Happened
- Benson James M, EVP, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of Dynatrace (DT), had 17,732 restricted stock units (RSUs vest) converted into common shares on March 15, 2026. To cover tax withholding on the vesting, 5,308 shares were withheld at $38.39 per share, totaling $203,774. Net new shares delivered to Benson = 17,732 − 5,308 = 12,424 shares.
- This was a vesting/conversion of RSUs (an award vesting), not an open‑market sale or purchase; the withheld shares represent a routine tax withholding rather than a discretionary sale.
Key Details
- Transaction date: March 15, 2026. Form 4 filed: March 17, 2026 (timely).
- Shares involved: 17,732 RSUs converted to shares; 5,308 shares withheld to satisfy tax obligations at $38.39/share (withholding value $203,774).
- Transaction codes: M = exercise/conversion of derivative (RSU conversion); F = shares withheld for tax withholding.
- Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing excerpt.
- Relevant footnotes: RSUs are contingent rights to receive one share each; these RSUs were part of a grant from Dec 15, 2022 that vests over time and complete vesting is scheduled for Dec 15, 2026.
Context
- This is a routine vesting and cashless tax‑withholding event (issuer withheld shares to cover taxes). It does not reflect an open‑market sale by the insider and should be viewed as an administrative action tied to compensation vesting rather than an explicit buy/sell signal.
- For derivative/RSU transactions: the M code indicates conversion/settlement of RSUs into shares; the F code indicates shares were withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations.
