Laureate Education (LAUR) Director Aristides de Macedo Receives Award
What Happened
- Aristides de Macedo, a non-employee director of Laureate Education, received a grant of 5,308 restricted stock units (RSUs) on May 21, 2026. The RSUs were granted at a $0 acquisition price (code A — award/grant). The reported acquisition value is $0 on the Form 4 because this is an equity award, not a cash purchase.
Key Details
- Transaction date: 2026-05-21; Filing date (Form 4): 2026-05-26.
- Security: 5,308 RSUs granted at $0.00 per share (award code A).
- Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the public filing.
- Footnote: RSUs are the 2026 annual retainer for non-employee director service and vest ratably — one installment on May 21, 2026 and the remaining installments at the end of each remaining calendar quarter of 2026 — provided he continues to serve through each vesting date.
- Timeliness: Filing occurred 5 days after the transaction date; this is later than the typical 2-business-day Form 4 deadline.
Context
- This is a standard director compensation award (not a market purchase or sale) and typically reflects routine compensation rather than a direct signal of insider buying or selling intent.
- For retail investors, awards like RSUs become meaningful if/when they vest and the director holds or sells the resulting shares; the Form 4 does not show subsequent dispositions here.
