What insider transactions did AWR executive Gladys Farrow report?

Gladys Farrow reported share grants and related tax-withholding transactions in American States Water common shares. She received multiple stock awards in March 2026, then had portions of those shares withheld to satisfy tax liabilities, along with a very small share return to the issuer.

Were any of Gladys Farrow’s AWR share transactions open-market buys or sells?

No, the reported transactions were not open-market purchases or sales. They were coded as awards (A) and tax-withholding or issuer dispositions (F and D), meaning they relate to equity compensation and taxes rather than discretionary trading in American States Water stock.

Farrow received several equity awards in March 2026: 770 common shares, 715.4458 common shares, and 8.2130 common shares. These awards are reported as grants or other acquisitions and form part of her compensation in American States Water equity.

The filing shows 294.6205, 81.4483, and 77.0903 American States Water common shares withheld for tax liabilities. These tax-withholding dispositions occur when the issuer withholds shares from awards to cover income tax obligations instead of the executive selling shares in the market.

What does a Form 4 tax-withholding disposition mean for AWR insiders?

A tax-withholding disposition means American States Water withholds some granted shares to pay taxes owed on the award’s value. It is coded as an F transaction and does not represent the insider choosing to sell shares on the open market for investment reasons.

What role does Gladys Farrow hold at American States Water?

Gladys Farrow is reported as an officer of American States Water, serving as Vice President of Finance, Treasurer, and Assistant Secretary. Her Form 4 reflects equity compensation and related tax handling tied to that executive role, rather than standard investor trading activity.
