What Happened Heidi G. Petz, President & CEO and a director of Sherwin-Williams Co. (SHW), had 3,322 shares of common stock withheld by the company on 2026-02-13 to satisfy tax withholding obligations tied to the vesting of her RSUs.

Key Details

  • Transaction date: 2026-02-13; Filing date: 2026-02-17 (filed within the Form 4 reporting window).
  • Shares withheld/disposed: 3,322; Price per share: $372.49; Total value: $1,237,412.
  • Underlying award: Withholding occurred upon vesting of 8,350 RSUs granted 2023-02-14 under the company's 2006 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan (see footnote F1).
  • Footnote F2: Notes shares attributable to the reporting person’s participation in the company 401(k) plan per the trustee’s 2/13/2026 statement.

Context

  • This was a routine tax-withholding event (company retained shares to cover taxes on vested RSUs) rather than a discretionary sale of shares on the open market. Such withholdings are common and do not necessarily signal the insider’s view of the stock.
  • For retail investors, outright purchases by insiders tend to be more informative about conviction than routine withholding or administrative dispositions.
