Stryker (SYK) Group President Crotty Receives Award

What Happened
Crotty Dylan Bram (listed as Group President) received a grant of a derivative equity award covering 9,978 shares on February 4, 2026. The Form 4 reports the acquisition price as $0.00, indicating a compensation grant rather than an open-market purchase. A footnote states this is a stock option under the Stryker 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan, exercisable 20% on each of the first five anniversaries of grant.

Key Details

  • Transaction date: 2026-02-04; Form 4 filed: 2026-02-06 (filed within the typical 2-business-day window).
  • Amount: 9,978 derivative shares; Reported acquisition price: $0.00.
  • Post-transaction shares owned: not specified on the provided filing.
  • Footnote: option grant under the 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan; vests 20% per year over five years.
  • Filing timeliness: appears timely (no late-filing indicator).

Context
This was a compensation grant (stock option) rather than a market purchase or sale. Options vest over time and only become exercisable (and potentially converted to shares) according to the stated schedule; the filing does not state an exercise price or immediate dollar value, so intrinsic value at grant is not provided here. Compensation grants are common for executives and are not a direct signal of immediate buying or selling.
