What Happened
Aaron Webster, EVP & Global Chief Risk Officer at PayPal (PYPL), had 4,602 restricted stock units (RSUs) convert to common shares on June 1, 2026. Of those, 2,097 shares were withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations at a reported per-share value of $44.75 (total ~$93,841), leaving Webster with a net delivery of 2,505 shares.

Context
This was a standard RSU vesting and tax-withholding event (conversion of RSUs to shares with shares withheld to cover taxes), not an open-market sale or purchase. Such withholding is routine and does not necessarily indicate a market view by the insider. The filing shows conversion (derivative exercise) and share withholding rather than an immediate cashless sale on the open market.
