QuidelOrtho (QDEL) COO Philip D. McLellan Receives RSUs; Shares Withheld

What Happened

  • Philip D. McLellan, Chief Operations Officer of QuidelOrtho, had 4,897 restricted stock units (RSUs) vest on January 29, 2026. The RSUs converted into 4,897 common shares (acquisition at $0.00 per share). To satisfy tax withholding obligations, 2,017 of those shares were withheld (disposed) at $27.41 per share for a withholding amount of $55,286. That leaves a net delivery of 2,880 shares to McLellan.
  • The filing shows the RSU conversion (derivative exercise/conversion) and the tax-withholding disposition; the RSU conversion itself carries no cash exercise price.
