Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-02-09; reported on Form 4 filed 2026-02-11 (appears timely).
• Award: 198 deferred shares at $192.67 each; total reported value $38,149.
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided excerpt.
• Footnote: Deferred shares are convertible into one share of IQV common stock upon settlement under the Non-Employee Director Deferral Plan. Settlement occurs when the director leaves the board, upon a change in control, or upon the director’s death; there is no expiry date.
• Transaction type: Award (A); recorded as a derivative (not an immediate issuance of common stock).

Context
This was a routine director compensation grant (deferred share award). Deferred shares do not immediately increase tradable common stock—conversion happens only upon defined settlement events—so this is compensation-related rather than an open-market purchase or sale. Directors’ routine awards are standard corporate practice and should be viewed as compensation administration rather than a direct buy/sell signal.
