ExlService (EXLS) EVP Kini Narasimha Exercises RSUs, Sells Shares

What Happened

  • Kini Narasimha, Executive Vice President of ExlService Holdings (EXLS), had 5,587 restricted stock units (RSUs) vest and convert into 5,587 shares on Feb 27, 2026 (reported as a derivative conversion, code M).
  • To satisfy tax withholding, 2,853 of those shares were withheld/sold at $30.99 per share for a proceeds/withholding amount of $88,414 (code F). The RSU conversion shows an acquisition at $0.00 per share because RSUs convert one-for-one into common stock without a cash exercise price.
  • Net shares retained from this vesting event: 5,587 converted − 2,853 withheld = 2,734 net shares added to the insider’s holdings.
