FAQ

What insider transactions did ACN director Nancy McKinstry report?

Nancy McKinstry reported routine equity-related transactions in Accenture Class A shares. She received 7 shares via a restricted share unit adjustment and 4 shares were withheld for taxes, leaving her with 8,083 directly owned shares after the February 13, 2026 transactions.

Why did Nancy McKinstry receive 7 Accenture (ACN) shares at $0?

She received 7 Class A shares at $0 from a restricted share unit grant. The filing states this RSU grant was made under anti-dilution provisions of earlier awards to reflect Accenture plc’s payment of a cash dividend, adjusting prior equity grants accordingly.

What does the tax-withholding disposition in ACN’s Form 4 mean?

The Form 4 shows 4 Class A shares disposed of at $224.1125 in a tax-withholding transaction. This means shares were automatically withheld to cover taxes owed on equity compensation, not sold in an open-market trade initiated by the director.

How many Accenture (ACN) shares does Nancy McKinstry own after these transactions?

After the reported transactions, Nancy McKinstry directly beneficially owned 8,083 Accenture Class A ordinary shares. This figure reflects the 7-share RSU-related acquisition and the 4-share tax-withholding disposition that occurred on February 13, 2026.

Are the reported ACN transactions open-market buys or sells?

The transactions are not open-market trades. One is an acquisition from a restricted share unit adjustment granted at $0, and the other is a tax-withholding disposition, where shares are withheld to satisfy tax liabilities on equity compensation, rather than voluntarily sold.
