What Happened

Brent Alan Vulgamott, Chief Operating Officer of American Outdoor Brands (AOUT), had 988 shares of common stock withheld by the company on May 1, 2026 to satisfy tax withholding associated with the vesting of restricted stock units. The withholding occurred in two lots: 232 shares at $9.60 ($2,227) and 756 shares at $9.60 ($7,258), for a combined value of approximately $9,485.

Context

This was a cashless tax-withholding action tied to RSU vesting (transaction code F), meaning shares were surrendered to the issuer to cover tax obligations rather than sold on the open market. Such withholdings are routine administrative actions and do not by themselves indicate a change in the insider’s view of the company.
