Key Details
- Transaction dates: 2026-03-04 (award and withholding). Filing date: 2026-03-06 (timely within the 2-business-day window).
- Award: 1,297 PSUs (A) — no cash paid; PSUs settle in common stock.
- Withholding: 599 shares (F) at $362.35/share = $217,048 to cover tax obligations (share withholding under the equity plan).
- Shares owned after the transactions are not specified in this filing; the report notes additional 401(k) share activity since the last ownership report (F3).
- Footnotes: F1 — PSUs were originally granted in 2023 and include additional units from performance achievement plus accrued dividend equivalents; no more service-based vesting required. F2 — shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations. F3 — filing includes 401(k) plan activity since last report.
Context
- This was not an open-market sale or purchase; the 599-share disposal is a routine tax-withholding action related to the settlement of PSUs, not a market-directed sale.
- PSUs are compensation tied to prior performance metrics; their issuance/settlement typically reflects company compensation rules rather than a direct insider view on the stock.
