Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-03-18; Form 4 filed: 2026-03-20.
• Security type: Restricted Stock Units (derivative); amount: 7,142 RSUs.
• Price/Value: Not reported (N/A) in the filing.
• Vesting: Per footnote, each RSU settles for one share of Coty Class A common stock and vests on March 18, 2031, subject to vesting conditions and exceptions.

Context

• RSU awards are compensation/retention tools and do not represent an immediate buy or sell of shares. They convert to actual shares only if/when vesting conditions are met. Such grants are common for directors and don’t, by themselves, indicate insider sentiment about the stock price.
