Knutson Ann 4

What Happened Ann Knutson, Chief Human Resources Officer of Equity Bancshares, was granted a total of 1,652 restricted stock units (RSUs) on February 7, 2026. The filing shows two awards of 826 RSUs each (transaction code A) recorded at $0.00 on the Form 4—one time‑based grant and one performance‑based grant. The Form 4 reports the acquisition price as $0 because these are compensation awards rather than open‑market purchases.

Context

• These RSU grants are compensation and do not reflect an open‑market buy or sell. Time‑based RSUs provide future shares subject to tenure; performance RSUs depend on meeting specified goals before vesting. Such awards are common for executive compensation and are not an immediate cash transaction.
