Thode Eric W 4

What Happened
Eric Thode, Senior Vice President of Archrock, was issued 39,807 shares on February 18, 2026, reported as an award/acquisition (code A) on a Form 4. The filing shows an acquisition price of $0.00 because these shares were issued upon the vesting and conversion of performance-based restricted stock units (RSUs) into common stock on a one-for-one basis. This was an award vesting (compensation), not an open-market purchase or sale.
