First Hawaiian (FHB) Vice Chair Char Neill Receives Award

What Happened

Char Neill, Vice Chair of First Hawaiian, Inc. (FHB), was credited with 9,073 shares as the settlement of performance share units (PSUs) on Feb 17, 2026 (transaction code A — award/acquisition). To satisfy withholding obligations, 4,807 of those shares were withheld (transaction code F) at $26.40/share, generating $126,905. The award itself is reported with a $0.00 acquisition price because it stems from earned compensation rather than a cash purchase. Net new shares to Neill after withholding: 4,266 (approximately $112,600 based on $26.40/share).

Context

These transactions reflect compensation settlement (earned PSUs), not an open-market purchase or a voluntary sale. Withholding of shares to cover taxes is a routine administrative action and does not necessarily indicate a change in the insider’s market view.
For retail investors, awarded shares increase insider ownership (net after withholding) but are driven by prior compensation grants and performance metrics rather than direct insider buying.
