[Form 4] Albertsons Companies, Inc. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Albertsons Companies insider report: dividend-equivalent RSUs credited to an executive. Thomas M. Moriarty, EVP, M&A and Corporate Affairs, was credited with dividend equivalent restricted stock units tied to both unvested RSUs and performance-based RSUs. The filing records a series of Dividend Equivalent Units dated 08/08/2025 totaling 3,209 units across multiple award tranches; each unit corresponds to one share of Class A common stock upon settlement. The report states the credited amount represents the quarterly dividend equivalent of $0.15 per share, and that the units will vest and settle with the underlying awards. Individual lines show post-transaction beneficial ownership for those awards (for example, 1,314 units resulting in 173,963 shares beneficially owned for that award tranche).

Insights

Compensation/Equity Analyst

TL;DR Routine crediting of dividend-equivalent RSUs to an executive; no open-market buying or selling reported, limited immediate market impact.

The filing documents Dividend Equivalent Units credited as cash-in-kind adjustments to existing restricted stock and performance awards. The total credited amount is 3,209 DEUs reflecting the quarterly dividend equivalent of $0.15 per share. These are derivative credits that will vest and settle with the underlying RSUs and convert into Class A common shares on settlement. As this is an internal compensation accrual rather than a market transaction, it is typically neutral for liquidity and immediate valuation drivers, though it incrementally increases potential future dilution when settled.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR Standard disclosure of dividend equivalents on equity awards; procedural and disclosure-compliant, not a red flag.

The Form 4 reports dividend-equivalent RSUs credited to the reporting person across unvested and performance-based awards, with per-line beneficial ownership after the credits specified in the table. The filing confirms the company applies quarterly dividend equivalents ($0.15 per share) to RSUs, which will vest and settle with the underlying awards. From a governance standpoint, this is a routine equity-compensation administrative event; it does not indicate an insider sale or change in control, and the report appears to follow required Section 16 disclosure protocols.
