Palmieri Jane 4

What Happened Jane Palmieri, a director of Stanley Black & Decker, received a grant of 2,603 restricted stock units (RSUs) on 2026-05-04. The RSUs were granted at $0.00 (no cash paid) and are 100% vested upon grant. Ms. Palmieri has elected to defer settlement of these RSUs under the Stanley Black & Decker, Inc. 2020 Restricted Stock Unit Deferral Plan for Non-Employee Directors, so no shares were delivered immediately.

Context This was a routine director compensation award (RSUs) rather than a market purchase or sale. Because settlement is deferred and no shares were immediately delivered, the transaction does not represent an immediate buy or sell signal. Director RSU grants are commonly used for non-employee director compensation and should be interpreted as such rather than as direct stock-market sentiment.
