PALOMAKI ERIC 4

What Happened
Eric Palomaki, promoted to Chief Executive Officer of CORE Molding Technologies, was granted 20,000 shares as a one-time promotion award on June 1, 2026. The Form 4 reports the award at $0.00 per share (total reported value $0), indicating this was a company grant rather than an open-market purchase.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-06-01; transaction type: Award/Grant (code A).
• Price reported: $0.00 per share; 20,000 shares acquired.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not disclosed in the information provided in this summary.
• Footnote: The award was granted in connection with Mr. Palomaki’s promotion to CEO and is a one-time promotion grant approved by the Compensation Committee (Footnote F1).
• Timeliness: The Form 4 was filed on 2026-07-10, more than a month after the transaction date, so this appears to be a late filing (may warrant investor attention).

Context
A grant/award is a compensation action (not an open-market buy or sale) intended to align the executive’s interests with shareholders. The filing does not specify vesting, restrictions, or whether the shares are subject to forfeiture—those details would typically appear in proxy materials or the company’s equity grant agreements.
