LENTINO JAMES V 4

What Happened

• James V. Lentino, SVP and Chief Risk Officer of Wintrust Financial Corp. (WTFC), received an award of 436 restricted stock units (RSUs) on 2026-01-22. The grant was reported at $152.21 per share, a total grant value of approximately $66,364.
• This was an award/grant transaction (code A), not an open-market purchase or sale. RSUs represent a contingent right to receive common shares subject to vesting.

Key Details

• Transaction date and terms: 2026-01-22; 436 RSUs granted at a reported value of $152.21 each (total ~$66,364).
• Vesting: Per footnote, these RSUs vest on the third anniversary of the grant date (i.e., typical time-based vesting).
• Shares owned after transaction: The provided filing summary does not list total beneficial shares following this grant. Footnote notes the reporting person’s ownership includes 11 shares purchased in the Company’s 2025 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP).
• Transaction type/code: Award/Grant (A). No indication of a sale, purchase, or immediate disposition.
• Filing timeliness: No late-filing indication provided in the summary.

Context

• RSU grants are compensation and typically vest over time; they do not represent an immediate cash purchase or sale and therefore are not the same signal as an open-market buy or sell.
• The grant increases potential future share ownership if the RSUs vest; it does not change current outstanding shares until vested and delivered.
