Key Details
- Transaction date: August 11, 2026. Filing date: August 12, 2026 (timely).
- Grant type and counts: 56,015 RSUs (derivative), 68,536 performance stock options (derivative).
- Price at grant: $0.00 (award/grant), reported value at issuance is $0 in the filing context.
- Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the filing.
- Footnotes of note:
- F1: Each RSU represents the contingent right to receive one share of Fox Class A common stock upon vesting.
- F2: The RSUs vest one‑third on each of Aug 15, 2027, Aug 15, 2028 and Aug 15, 2029.
- F3: The performance stock options may vest and become exercisable on Aug 11, 2029 if Fox’s Class A share price increases at least 15% over the exercise price for 30 consecutive calendar days during the performance period (through Aug 11, 2029).
- Filing timeliness: Reported the next day — not indicated as late.
Context
- RSUs: These convert into actual shares only as they vest per the schedule (one‑third per year), so they do not represent immediate ownership of shares until vesting occurs.
- Performance options: Vesting is contingent on a specified stock‑price performance test (15% increase for 30 consecutive days); if the performance target is not met, those options may not vest.
- Because these were awards (A) at $0, there was no cash transaction or immediate sale of shares; such executive grants are common as part of compensation and do not, by themselves, indicate the insider is buying or selling shares.
