Insights

Equity compensation analyst

Routine RSU vesting and tax withholding, with modest ownership increase.

Ellen Copaken, an officer of AMC Entertainment Holdings, reported standard equity compensation activity on January 8, 2026. RSUs granted in 2023, 2024 and 2025 under the company’s 2013 and 2024 equity incentive plans vested, and each unit converted into one share of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $0.

The filing lists a non-derivative acquisition of 36,954 Class A shares (code M) and a disposition of 18,562 shares (code F) that were withheld to satisfy tax obligations arising from the vesting. After these events, Copaken directly holds 45,494 Class A shares, with RSU footnotes indicating additional unvested and performance-based awards that could bring total holdings to 193,040 shares if service and performance conditions are achieved.

This pattern is typical of executive equity compensation: no cash proceeds are reported, and the only share reduction reflects tax withholding rather than an open-market sale. The overall impact on the company’s investment thesis is limited, as the transactions largely formalize previously granted awards rather than signaling a change in insider sentiment.
