Axos Financial (AX) EVP reports RSU vesting, tax withholding and new grant

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Axos Financial, Inc. executive Candace L. Thiele reported routine equity compensation activity. On March 15, 2026, previously granted restricted stock units (RSUs) vested and were converted into 803 shares of common stock, with matching RSU entries showing exercises at a conversion price of $0.00 per unit.

In connection with these vestings, 434 shares of common stock were retained by Axos Financial, Inc. to satisfy tax withholding obligations, as disclosed in the footnotes, so these dispositions were to the issuer rather than market sales. Thiele also received a new grant of 1,063 RSUs under the company’s 2014 Stock Incentive Plan, which vest in three equal annual installments and carry dividend equivalent rights.

After these transactions, Thiele holds 781 shares of common stock directly and 348 shares indirectly through a 401(k) plan, along with 4,985 RSUs representing contingent rights to receive an equal number of common shares upon future vesting.
