What Happened

• Nicholas McAleese, Chief Financial Officer of FTAI Aviation Ltd. (FTAI), was granted 5,083 restricted stock units (RSUs) on 2026-03-16. The reported acquisition price is $0.00, so the grant had no immediate cash cost or public sale value on the filing date.

Context

• RSU grants are conditional awards that typically convert to shares only as they vest; they are different from open-market purchases or sales and don't necessarily indicate immediate insider buying or selling.
• Because these RSUs vest over time and are subject to continued employment, they are meant as future compensation and retention rather than an immediate liquidity event.
