Liberty Global EVP Andrea Salvato Exercises RSUs; Shares Withheld

What Happened

  • Andrea Salvato, Executive Vice President & Chief Development Officer of Liberty Global (tickers LBTYA/LBTYB/LBTYK), had a group of restricted share units (RSUs) convert into common shares on May 1, 2026. The filing shows a total of 239,438 RSUs converted (SEC transaction code M).
  • To satisfy tax withholding obligations (SEC code F), 24,118 shares were withheld at $11.96 for $288,451 and 32,153 shares were withheld at $11.77 for $378,441 — total cash value withheld = $666,892. After withholding, approximately 183,167 shares were delivered to Salvato (239,438 converted minus 56,271 withheld).
  • These actions reflect vesting/settlement of awards, not an open-market sale or new purchase.

Context

  • This filing documents routine RSU vesting and share-withholding to cover tax liabilities (a common "net settlement" approach). It is not an open-market sale that would signal divestment; nor is it a purchase indicating a direct bullish buy by the insider.
