Element Solutions (ESI) Director Oneal E. Stanley Receives RSU Award

What Happened

  • On May 4, 2026, Oneal E. Stanley, a director of Element Solutions, had 6,539 restricted stock units (RSUs) settle (reported as derivative conversions/exercises). The filing shows a gross conversion of 6,539 RSU units, 6,539 shares reported as disposed (withheld), and a net grant/delivery of 3,272 shares to Stanley. No dollar prices or cash amounts were reported for these entries (price: N/A). This was a routine equity compensation vesting event, not an open-market purchase or sale.

Key Details

  • Transaction date: 2026-05-04 (reported on Form 4 filed 2026-05-05).
  • Reported entries: M (exercise/conversion) – 6,539 shares; M (disposition) – 6,539 shares; A (award/grant) – 3,272 shares.
  • Net shares received: 3,272; implied shares withheld for taxes: 6,539 − 3,272 = 3,267.
  • Price/total value: N/A in the filing excerpt.
  • Shares owned after transaction: not disclosed in the provided data.
  • Footnotes: F1 confirms these were RSUs that vested on 5/4/26 and each RSU equals one share. F2 describes other outstanding RSUs that vest by 5/4/27 or sooner under certain conditions.
  • Timeliness: Filing appears timely (transaction 5/4/26; Form 4 filed 5/5/26).

Context

  • This report reflects RSU settlement and tax-withholding (a common, routine compensation event). The derivative code M indicates conversion/settlement of contingent awards; the reported disposals represent shares surrendered/withheld to satisfy withholding taxes rather than open-market sales. Such vesting events are compensation-related and should be viewed differently from purchases or voluntary sales when assessing insider sentiment.

Footnotes (2)
  • [F1]This transaction represents the settlement of previously-reported restricted stock units ("RSUs"), which vested on 5/4/26. Each RSU represented a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's common stock.
  • [F2]Each RSU represents a right to receive one share of the Issuer's common stock. These RSUs will vest on the earlier of 5/4/27 and the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders of the Issuer, provided that the reporting person continues to serve as a director of the Issuer through and on such vesting date. The RSUs may, in certain circumstances, become immediately vested as of the date of a change of control of the Issuer.
