What Happened

  • Thiago T. Santelmo, President, International of Restaurant Brands International (QSR), purchased 4,601 common shares on February 25, 2026 at $68.81 per share for a cash cost of $316,595. In addition, he was granted a total of 63,886 restricted share units (RSUs and performance-based RSUs) on the same date as part of the company's bonus-swap/award program.
  • The cash purchase was made pursuant to the issuer’s 2025 Bonus Swap Program (under the 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan) using 50% of his 2025 net bonus to buy “Investment Shares.” The RSUs and PBRSUs are awards/derivative grants (reported at $0 per share) that vest according to scheduled and/or performance-based conditions.

Key Details

  • Transaction date: February 25, 2026 (Form 4/A filed April 6, 2026 to amend prior reporting).
  • Purchase: 4,601 common shares at $68.81 each; total cash paid $316,595. The purchase price was based on the Feb 24, 2026 NYSE closing price per the plan.
  • Awards: 15,928 RSUs and 47,958 performance-based RSUs (total 63,886 RSU/PBRSU units) reported as derivative grants (no cash price).

Context

  • RSUs/PBRSUs are contingent awards that convert to common shares only if vesting and (for PBRSUs) performance conditions are met; they are not immediate open-market purchases.
  • The cash purchase of shares is a direct insider buy (often viewed as a positive signal by some investors), while the RSUs and PBRSUs are compensation awards tied to service and performance.
  • This filing is an amended Form 4 correcting prior reporting errors; review the full SEC filing for precise post-transaction holdings and any additional disclosures.
