Albertsons (NYSE: ACI) CEO Susan Morris reports RSU conversions and tax withholding

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Albertsons Companies, Inc. insider equity transactions were reported for executive and director Susan Morris on a Form 4. On 12/01/2025, multiple time-based and performance-based restricted stock units (RSUs) converted into Class A common stock at an exercise price of $18.1 per share. The transactions are coded "M," indicating conversions of derivative securities.

The company withheld portions of several RSU and performance-based RSU grants to cover FICA tax obligations related to Morris becoming eligible for early retirement. The underlying awards were originally granted in 2023, 2024, and 2025 with vesting or earning dates in 2026–2028. Following these tax-related withholdings and conversions, Morris continues to hold a significant number of derivative securities directly, reflecting ongoing equity-based compensation rather than open-market purchases or sales.
