Khator Renu 4

What Happened

• Renu Khator, a director of The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. (PNC), was granted 844 deferred stock units (DSUs) on 2026-04-22. The Form 4 records the award as 844 units @ $0.00 (derivative), meaning no cash changed hands at grant.

• Amount: 844 deferred stock units; reported price $0.00 (no cash paid at grant).
• Shares owned after transaction: Not disclosed in the provided filing.
• Footnotes: F1 — DSUs granted under PNC’s Directors Deferred Stock Unit Program (convert to one share at retirement or limited cash). F2 — phantom stock units are an economic equivalent to one share and are settled in cash (applies where noted).

Context

• DSUs are a form of deferred compensation for directors and do not represent immediate share ownership; they settle later (commonly at retirement) as shares or, in limited situations, cash. Such director awards are routine and reflect compensation policy rather than an immediate investment decision.
• This was an award grant, not a purchase or sale. For retail investors, purchases or sales by insiders often signal direct market sentiment; grants are typically part of standard compensation and should be interpreted accordingly.
