Restricted Stock Units financial

"The security title is listed as "Restricted Stock Units" for one transaction."

Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.

Ordinary Shares financial

"Transactions involve "Ordinary Shares" as the underlying security received."

Ordinary shares are a type of ownership stake in a company, giving shareholders a right to participate in the company’s profits and decision-making through voting. They are similar to owning a piece of a business, and their value can rise or fall based on the company's performance. Investors buy ordinary shares to potentially earn dividends and benefit from the company's growth over time.

tax withholding obligations financial

"Represents shares withheld to pay tax withholding obligations due on the vesting date."

contingent right financial

"Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one Ordinary Share upon settlement."

derivative exercise/conversion financial

"Transaction code M is described as a derivative exercise/conversion event."

What did Birkenstock (BIRK) director Anne Pitcher report in this Form 4?

Anne Pitcher reported the vesting and exercise of 1,623 Restricted Stock Units into Ordinary Shares, along with 325 shares withheld to cover tax obligations. These are compensation-related equity transactions, not open-market stock purchases or sales.

How many Birkenstock (BIRK) shares did Anne Pitcher acquire from RSU vesting?

She acquired 1,623 Ordinary Shares upon the exercise and settlement of Restricted Stock Units. Each RSU represented a contingent right to receive one Ordinary Share, so the full 1,623 RSUs converted into 1,623 Birkenstock Ordinary Shares on the vesting date.

Why were 325 Birkenstock (BIRK) shares withheld in Anne Pitcher’s Form 4?

The 325 Ordinary Shares were withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations triggered by the RSU vesting. Instead of paying taxes in cash, a portion of the newly delivered shares was used to cover the liability, a common approach for equity compensation.

Did Anne Pitcher buy or sell Birkenstock (BIRK) shares on the open market?

No, the Form 4 shows no open-market purchases or sales. The transactions reflect RSU conversion into Ordinary Shares and a share withholding for taxes, which are administrative, compensation-related events rather than discretionary trading in Birkenstock stock.

How many Birkenstock (BIRK) shares does Anne Pitcher hold after these transactions?

Following the RSU exercise and tax withholding, Anne Pitcher directly holds 3,473 Ordinary Shares. This figure comes from the Form 4’s post-transaction ownership field and represents her direct position after the compensation-related equity adjustments.

What is the reported fair value per Birkenstock (BIRK) share used for tax withholding?

The filing reports a price of $37.50 per share for the 325 Ordinary Shares withheld for taxes. This value is used solely to calculate the tax withholding amount associated with the RSU vesting, not as an open-market transaction price.
