NATURES SUNSHINE (NATR) CFO Ruth Ann Perkins Receives RSU Award

What Happened Ruth Ann Perkins, Chief Financial Officer of Natures Sunshine Products, received two restricted stock unit (RSU) awards on 2026-09-02: 39,384 RSUs and 36,049 RSUs (total 75,433 RSUs). Both grants were reported as awards (transaction code A) at $0.00 per share (typical for RSU grants). RSUs represent the right to receive one share of NATR common stock upon vesting; these are grants rather than open-market purchases or sales.

• Price: $0.00 per RSU (award/grant).
• Total RSUs awarded: 75,433.
• Shares owned following the transaction: not disclosed in the Form 4.
• Transaction code: A (award/grant). Footnotes clarify vesting schedules for each grant.

Context RSU awards are compensation grants that convert to actual shares only as they vest; they do not require an immediate cash purchase and are not the same as an insider buying stock on the open market. Because the filing was submitted on 2026-09-15 for a 2026-09-02 grant, the Form 4 appears to have been filed late under normal two-business-day reporting rules.
