Cohen & Steers EVP Brandon Brown Receives RSUs; 852 Shares Withheld

What Happened

  • Brandon Brown, Executive Vice President of Cohen & Steers, received a grant of 8,098 restricted stock units (RSUs) on Jan 30, 2026 (reported on Form 4 filed Feb 2, 2026). On the same date, 852 shares were withheld by the issuer to cover the reporting person's tax obligations related to previously vested RSUs; those withheld shares were valued at $64.58 each for total proceeds of $55,022. The RSU grant is reported with a $0 per-share acquisition price (typical for RSUs).

Key Details

  • Transaction dates: Jan 30, 2026 (reported Feb 2, 2026).
  • Items reported: A = grant/acquisition of 8,098 RSUs; F = withholding of 852 shares to satisfy tax obligations.
  • Withheld-share value: 852 shares × $64.58 = $55,022 (proceeds reported for the withheld shares).
  • Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the information provided in this summary.
  • Footnotes: F1 = withholding by issuer to cover tax on vested RSUs; F2 = the 8,098 RSUs are part of Mr. Brown’s 2025 annual incentive bonus that was mandatorily deferred; RSUs vest ratably over four years and dividend RSUs vest on the fourth anniversary.
  • Timeliness: Form filed on Feb 2, 2026 for a Jan 30, 2026 transaction; no late filing indicated.

Context

  • RSU grants are compensation awards, not open-market purchases; the A-code award increases potential future ownership as units vest over time. The F-code withholding is a routine tax-coverage transaction (not a market sale) and is commonly seen when RSUs vest and shares are delivered.
