Macy's (M) Bloomingdale's CEO Bron Olivier Receives RSU Award; Sells Shares for Taxes

What Happened

  • Bron Olivier, CEO of Bloomingdale’s (a Macy’s, Inc. executive), had 11,035 performance restricted stock units (PRSUs) settle on March 26, 2026 (acquired at $0.00). The settlement included 1,024 dividend shares and resulted from a 3‑year performance period ending fiscal 2025.
  • To satisfy tax withholding on the vesting, Macy’s withheld 406 shares (valued at $18.49 each; ~$7,507). Separately, the reporting person sold 4,712 shares in an open‑market sale on March 27, 2026 at a weighted average price of $17.91 for proceeds of about $84,407. These withholding and sale transactions are reported as non‑discretionary tax‑related actions.
  • On March 26, 2026 Olivier was also granted 48,674 restricted stock units (time‑vesting RSUs) that vest in four equal installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant.

Context

  • These transactions reflect a routine settlement of performance‑based RSUs and the tax withholding/sale activity that commonly follows vesting. The 48,674‑unit grant is a time‑vesting award (not an immediate purchase) and will vest over future anniversaries.
  • Because the sales were expressly to satisfy tax obligations and/or were withholding by the company (non‑discretionary), they are generally viewed as administrative, not an indicator of the insider’s discretionary view on the stock.
