Albemarle Corporation (ALB) – Form 4 Insider Transaction
Director James J. O’Brien reported two share acquisitions dated 1 July 2025:
- 2,725 common shares granted as the annual installment of non-employee director compensation under the company’s 2023 Stock Compensation and Deferral Election Plan. These shares are scheduled to vest on 1 July 2026.
- 37 common shares issued in lieu of cash dividends that accrued on a prior award granted 1 July 2024 and fully vested on 1 July 2025.
Both transactions were reported with a $0.00 acquisition price, indicating they are equity compensation rather than open-market purchases. Following the two grants, O’Brien’s direct beneficial ownership increased to 8,085 common shares.
No derivative securities were reported and no dispositions occurred. An Exhibit 24 Power of Attorney was filed to authorize the attorney-in-fact signature.
The filing is routine, reflecting scheduled director equity awards rather than discretionary insider buying or selling.
