Vulgamott Brent Alan 4

What Happened

• Brent Vulgamott, Chief Operating Officer of American Outdoor Brands, had 903 shares of common stock withheld by the company to satisfy tax withholding obligations connected to the vesting of restricted stock units. The withholding was recorded at $14.27 per share, totaling $12,886.
• This was a tax-withholding disposition (code F), not an open-market sale or a purchase; such withholdings are routine when RSUs vest.

Key Details

• Transaction date and price: July 9, 2026 — 903 shares withheld at $14.27/share.
• Total value of shares withheld: $12,886.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in this Form 4 filing.
• Footnote: F1 — Shares were withheld by the issuer to satisfy tax withholding obligations on RSU vesting.
• Filing timeliness: Report filed July 13, 2026 — within the typical Form 4 reporting window (timely).

Context

• Code F transactions reflect shares retained by the company to cover taxes on vested awards (a cashless withholding), and do not indicate the insider actively sold shares on the market—generally viewed as routine administrative transactions rather than strong signals about the insider’s view of the stock.
• For retail investors, purchases or open-market sales by insiders tend to carry more interpretive weight than tax-withholding events.
