Ettinger Michael S 4

What Happened

• Michael S. Ettinger, COO of Henry Schein (HSIC), had performance-based restricted stock/units vest effective Feb 27, 2026 (original vest date Mar 1, 2026 fell on a non-business day). To satisfy withholding, 914 shares were surrendered (code F) at $82.39 per share for a reported value of $75,304.
• The filing also shows a disposition to the issuer of 9,047 shares (code D) reported at $0.00; these are reported as equivalent shares held in the Henry Schein 401(k) unitized stock fund. Based on the $82.39 closing price, those 9,047 equivalent shares would be roughly $745k in value (reported as plan/unit interest, not a cash sale).

Context

• This was a routine tax-withholding/net-settlement event tied to RSU vesting, not an open-market sale. Such share surrenders are common when restricted stock/units vest and do not necessarily signal a change in insider sentiment.
