FAQ

What did AMETEK (AME) insider Emanuela Speranza report on this Form 4?

AMETEK chief commercial officer Emanuela Speranza reported a stock award and related tax withholding. She received 1,399 common shares from settlement of previously granted performance-based RSUs, and 630 shares were withheld to satisfy tax liabilities, leaving her with direct ownership of 30,039 AMETEK shares.

How many AMETEK (AME) shares did the insider acquire and at what price?

She acquired 1,399 AMETEK common shares through a grant or award at a stated price of $0.0000 per share. The filing links this to settlement of performance-based restricted stock units originally awarded on March 22, 2023, rather than an open-market purchase transaction.

Why were 630 AMETEK (AME) shares disposed of in this insider filing?

The 630 AMETEK common shares were disposed of as tax withholding, not an open-market sale. The filing explains these shares were withheld specifically to pay taxes due on the equity award settlement, using a transaction coded as “F” for tax-liability payment by delivering securities.

What is Emanuela Speranza’s AMETEK (AME) share ownership after these transactions?

Following the grant and tax withholding, Emanuela Speranza directly owns 30,039 AMETEK common shares. This figure reflects the net position after receiving 1,399 shares from the award settlement and having 630 shares withheld to cover associated tax obligations on the same transaction date.

Were the AMETEK (AME) insider transactions open-market buys or sells?

The reported AMETEK transactions were not open-market trades. One entry is a grant or award acquisition tied to performance-based RSU settlement, while the other is a tax-withholding disposition coded “F,” indicating shares were withheld to pay tax liabilities instead of being sold on the market.
