Eifler Robert W. 4

What Happened

• Robert W. Eifler, President & CEO and Director of Noble Corp (NE), had 16,980 restricted stock units (RSUs) convert into Class A ordinary shares on January 26, 2026. The issuer withheld 6,895 of those shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations (valued at $34.88 per share, total $240,498), leaving a net delivery of 10,085 shares to Eifler. This transaction reflects award vesting and tax withholding, not an open-market sale or purchase.

Key Details

• Net shares delivered to insider: 10,085 (16,980 vested − 6,895 withheld).
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing details.
• Footnotes from the filing:
  • F1: Each RSU represents a contingent right to one Class A ordinary share.
  • F2: Shares were withheld by the issuer to satisfy tax withholding on vesting.
  • F3: RSUs vest in three equal annual installments beginning Jan 26, 2024 (this was a scheduled vesting date).

Context

• This was a routine vesting of RSUs and partial share withholding for taxes (common practice); it is not an open-market sale or a buy. For derivative/RSU transactions, the filing often shows both the conversion (acquisition of shares) and the withholding (disposition of a portion to pay taxes). The withholding value gives a sense of the tax liability realized on vesting but does not indicate the CEO bought or sold stock in the market.
