What Happened
- Megan D. Crespi, Senior EVP & Chief Operating Officer of Comerica Inc., reported dispositions related to the company’s merger with Fifth Third Bancorp. The Form 4 shows seven dispositions on 2026-02-01 totaling 104,419 Comerica common shares. The Form 4 reports $0 per-share because these were dispositions in connection with the merger (shares converted into Fifth Third common stock under the merger terms).
- Using the merger conversion ratio (1.8663 Fifth Third shares per Comerica share) and Fifth Third’s last trading-day closing price of $50.22, the 104,419 Comerica shares equate to roughly 194,877 Fifth Third shares, with an implied value of about $9.8 million.

Context
- These were merger-related conversions and not open-market sales. The $0 price on the Form 4 reflects that Comerica shares were converted into Fifth Third shares per the merger agreement, not that the shares had no value.
- Several line items are labeled as derivative dispositions—those represent converted equity awards/options rather than ordinary stock sales. Such corporate-action dispositions are routine in mergers and do not necessarily signal the insider’s trading sentiment.
