FAQ

What insider transactions did AVAH executive Edwin C. Reisz report?

Edwin C. Reisz reported equity awards, not open-market trades. He acquired 50,304 and 187,500 Aveanna shares from vested performance-based restricted stock units and 49,653 shares from a new stock-settled restricted stock unit grant, all at a reported price of $0 per share.

Were the AVAH shares acquired by Edwin C. Reisz performance-based?

Yes, most reported shares were performance-based awards. Reisz earned 50,304 shares from 2022 performance-based restricted stock units and 187,500 shares from 2023 performance-based restricted stock units, reflecting vesting of long-term incentive awards rather than cash purchases in the market.

What is the vesting schedule for the new AVAH restricted stock units?

The new restricted stock unit grant has three-year cliff vesting. Reisz received 49,653 stock-settled restricted stock units that vest only after three years, meaning the entire award vests at once at the end of that period rather than gradually over time.

How many Aveanna (AVAH) shares does Edwin C. Reisz now directly own?

Reisz directly beneficially owns 1,609,100 Aveanna shares. This total reflects his holdings after the February 14, 2026 awards and includes 529 shares previously acquired through Aveanna’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan in December 2025 as part of his ongoing ownership.

Did Edwin C. Reisz pay cash to acquire the reported AVAH shares?

No cash purchase price was reported for these awards. All three transactions list a price of $0 per share, indicating they were grants or vesting of restricted stock units provided under Aveanna’s long-term incentive and stock compensation programs rather than open-market buys.

What role does Edwin C. Reisz hold at Aveanna Healthcare (AVAH)?

Edwin C. Reisz serves as Chief Administrative Officer of Aveanna. The Form 4 identifies him as an officer, not a director or 10% owner, and the reported stock awards reflect compensation tied to his executive role at the company.
