Zoetis (ZTS) EVP Jeannette Ferran Astorga Receives Award

What Happened
Jeannette Ferran Astorga, Executive Vice President of Zoetis (ZTS), received 4.997 phantom stock units as an award (reporting code A) on 2026-04-10. The units were recorded at an attributable value of $39.64 each, for a total value of roughly $198. This was a grant of derivative (phantom) units as part of the Zoetis Supplemental Savings Plan — not an open-market purchase or sale.

Key Details

  • Transaction date and terms: 2026-04-10; 4.997 phantom stock units @ $39.64 each; total ~$198. (Report filed 2026-04-13.)
  • Transaction type: Award/Grant of phantom stock units (derivative), code A.
  • Shares/units owned after transaction: Not disclosed in the filing.
  • Footnotes:
    • F1: Phantom stock units are settled in cash following the reporting person's separation from service and may be transferred into an alternative investment fund subject to timing/frequency limits set by Zoetis.
    • F2: Each phantom unit equals a fraction of a phantom share plus a small cash-equivalent allocation (typically ~5%); unit value tracks Zoetis common stock market value plus the cash-equivalent.
  • Filing timeliness: The Form 4 was filed on 2026-04-13 for a 2026-04-10 grant — within the SEC’s typical reporting window for Form 4s (which are due within two business days).

Context
Phantom stock unit grants are a form of deferred/retirement-style compensation and are generally settled in cash rather than delivering actual shares. Because this was a company-plan award rather than an open-market purchase or sale, it should be viewed as routine compensation-related activity rather than a direct buy/sell signal about the executive’s view of the stock.
