Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-09-29; Form 4 filed 2026-10-01 (appears timely).
• Transaction type/code: Award/Grant (A) of 5,323 restricted stock units at $0.00.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided filing excerpt.
• Footnote: Automatic grant under the General Mills, Inc. 2022 Stock Compensation Plan; each RSU vests on the date of the next annual meeting and converts to one share upon vesting (Footnote F1).
• No sale or exercise occurred — this is compensation, not a market purchase or sale.

Context RSU grants to directors are a common form of compensation and do not imply an immediate cash transaction or market sentiment. These units are contingent until they vest; once vested they convert to shares (or follow the company’s settlement rules), at which point they may affect ownership and could be sold later. This Form 4 reports the grant itself, not any subsequent sale or share delivery.
