Cheniere (LNG) EVP Anatol Feygin Receives RSU Vesting
What Happened
Anatol Feygin, EVP & Chief Commercial Officer of Cheniere Energy (LNG), had restricted stock units (RSUs) vest on February 8 and 9, 2026. A total of 7,534 shares were issued on conversion of those RSUs (3,726 on Feb 8 and 3,808 on Feb 9). To satisfy tax withholding obligations, the company withheld 923 shares on Feb 8 (priced at $213.11, $196,701) and 1,356 shares on Feb 9 (priced at $215.65, $292,421), totaling 2,279 shares withheld and roughly $489,122 in tax withholding proceeds. The RSU conversions show $0 exercise price (typical for RSU vesting) — these were not open-market sales but withholding to cover taxes.

Context
RSU vesting and company withholding to cover tax obligations are routine and do not indicate an open-market sale by the insider. In SEC coding, the M entries reflect conversion/exercise of the derivative (RSU conversion to shares) and the F entries reflect shares withheld to pay taxes. This is a compensation-related transaction rather than a discretionary buy or sell decision by the executive.
