Form 4 – Insider transaction summary for Ares Management Corp. (ARES)
Director Antoinette Cook Bush was granted 1,166 Class A common shares on 07/31/2025 under the company’s equity incentive plan (Transaction Code “A”). The award is structured as restricted stock units (RSUs) at an accounting price of $0, indicating a compensatory grant rather than an open-market purchase. After this transaction, Bush’s direct beneficial ownership increases to 22,440 shares, including the newly issued RSUs. The units will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to the terms of the award agreement.
No sales or derivative security transactions were reported, and there are no changes to indirect holdings. While the transaction modestly tightens board-shareholder alignment, the size of the grant is small relative to ARES’s market capitalization, so overall market impact is expected to be minimal.
