Koscinski Joseph S. 4

What Happened

Joseph S. Koscinski, Vice President, Chief Administrative Officer, General Counsel and Secretary of Ecovyst Inc. (ECVT), was granted 27,158 shares as an award on February 3, 2026. The Form 4 reports the grant at a $0.00 per-share acquisition price (transaction code A), indicating a compensation award or restricted-equity grant rather than a market purchase.

This was not a sale; it is a compensation-related issuance that increases his holdings but does not reflect an open-market purchase or sale by the insider.
