Key Details
- Transaction date: 2026-02-27.
- Reported dispositions for tax withholding: 743 shares withheld at $28.90/share = $21,473 (code F).
- Awards/grants: 2,388 and 2,814 RSU/PSU awards (total 5,202 shares) reported as acquisitions (code A).
- Exercises/conversions: 268, 300 and 1,095 derivative conversions/exercises reported (code M).

- Notable footnotes:
- F1/F3/F7: RSUs convert one-for-one to common stock; time-based RSUs vested.
- F2: Shares were withheld by Golden Entertainment to satisfy statutory income tax withholding upon vesting (this is not an open‑market sale).
- F4: Time‑based RSUs have staggered future vesting dates (if unvested).
- F5/F6: Some shares represent PSUs earned and include dividend equivalents that follow original vesting terms.
- Filing timeliness: Filing date equals transaction date; no late filing indicated.
Context
- These are award vesting/conversion transactions (derivative settlement and RSU/PSU grants). The withholding of 743 shares to cover taxes is a routine administrative tax-withholding event, not a market sale by the insider. For retail investors, such conversions/awards are routine compensation activity rather than a clear bullish or bearish insider signal.
