Otis (OTIS) President Jay Armas Receives Awards, Exercises/Converts Equity
What Happened
- Jay Armas, President of Otis Americas, received equity from vesting awards and converted derivative units. On Feb 3–4, 2026 he was issued 7,609 shares from vested performance share units (PSUs) and 1,110 shares from RSU awards (8,719 total), and converted/exercised 431 derivative units (total issued = 9,150). To satisfy tax withholding, 333 shares were withheld on Feb 3 (at $87.16, $29,024) and 124 shares were withheld on Feb 4 (at $90.37, $11,206), totaling about $40,230 in withholding. The PSU award vested at 82% of target.
Key Details
- Transaction dates: Feb 3, 2026 (PSU/RSU vesting and tax withholding) and Feb 4, 2026 (derivative conversion and tax withholding).
- Prices/withholdings: 333 shares withheld @ $87.16 = $29,024; 124 shares withheld @ $90.37 = $11,206; other awards/conversions reported at $0.00 as these reflect vesting/conversion rather than open-market trades.
- Footnotes: PSUs (granted Feb 7, 2023) vested at 82% of target (F4). RSUs convert 1:1 to shares, include dividend equivalents, and vest in three equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary (F1–F3).
- Type of transactions: A = grant/award (RSU/PSU vesting); M = conversion/exercise of derivative; F = share disposition for tax withholding.
- Filing timeliness: Report filed Feb 5, 2026 for transactions on Feb 3–4, 2026 — appears timely (no late filing indicated).
- Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided excerpt.
Context
- This was not an open-market purchase or a sale for investment; these entries reflect equity awards vesting and the conversion/exercise of derivative awards, with shares withheld to cover tax liabilities (common for RSU/PSU vesting). PSUs paid out at 82% of target, so the awarded share count reflects performance below maximum. These actions are routine compensation-related transactions, not necessarily a direct signal of personal buying/selling preferences.
