Joby (JOBY) CLO Kate DeHoff Sells Shares After RSU Vesting

What Happened

  • Kate DeHoff, Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary of Joby Aviation (JOBY), had RSUs convert to shares and completed both tax-withholding dispositions and open-market sales. On 2026-03-09 she converted/received 4,252 shares (2,958 + 1,294) at $0.00 (conversion of RSUs). Those 4,252 shares were immediately disposed (reported as $0) to cover taxes per the RSU terms. Separately, she sold 2,193 shares on 2026-03-10 at $10.25 ($22,478) and 1,433 shares on 2026-03-11 at $9.90 ($14,187) — total open-market proceeds of $36,665. The market sales were made under an approved 10b5-1 trading plan.

Context

  • The “M” derivative entries reflect conversion/exercise of RSU-type awards into common stock; the immediate $0 disposals are tax-withholding (a routine payroll tax settlement), not open-market cash sales. The separate open-market sales were executed under an existing 10b5-1 plan, which schedules trades regardless of short-term views. Routine tax-withholding and 10b5-1 sales are common and do not, by themselves, indicate insider confidence or pessimism. Purchases generally carry more informational weight than routine sales.
