McBride Kevin Thomas 4

What Happened
Kevin McBride, Principal Accounting Officer at ServiceNow (NOW), had restricted stock units convert to common shares on February 6, 2026. A total of 3,105 shares were issued on conversion (1,550 + 995 + 560). To cover withholding taxes, 1,089 of those shares were surrendered (disposed) at a reported per-share withholding value of $100.74, totaling about $109,706. The conversions show $0 exercise price, consistent with RSU settlement rather than an option purchase.

Context
This was a compensation-related RSU settlement and a routine net-share withholding to satisfy tax obligations (code M = conversion/exercise of derivative; code F = tax withholding). Because shares were surrendered to cover taxes rather than sold on-market for cash profit-taking, this transaction is standard administrative activity tied to vesting and not an open-market buy or directional sell signal.
