What Happened

• Edith Aviles, a director of Scotts Miracle‑Gro Co. (SMG), was granted 121 share-equivalent units on 2026-06-05. The grant is reported as a derivative award (DSU/RSU style); no per-share price or total dollar value is disclosed in the Form 4.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-06-05; Form 4 filed: 2026-06-09.
• Transaction type: A = Award/Grant (derivative — DSU/RSU-style units); shares acquired: 121; price: N/A; total value: not stated.
• Shares owned after transaction: not disclosed in the filing.
• Footnote: Dividend equivalent rights accrued on these DSU/RSU grants become exercisable proportionately with the units; each dividend equivalent is the economic equivalent of one common share.
• No indications in the filing of a 10b5-1 plan, tax-withholding sale, or other special sale mechanics.

Context

• This was an award/grant (typical compensation for directors) rather than an open-market purchase or sale; such grants are usually part of pay/retention and do not by themselves signal the insider buying or selling the stock.
• The award appears to be derivative (deferred/share units) and will vest or become exercisable according to the plan terms; dividend equivalents will track the underlying shares as noted in the footnote.
