[Form 4] BLACKBAUD INC Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

BLACKBAUD INC executive Kevin McDearis reported stock-based compensation activity and related tax withholding transactions. On February 17, 2026, he received a grant of 31,150 shares of common stock as a restricted stock award at a stated price of $0.00 per share, bringing his direct holdings in that line to 104,119 shares. On the same date, he disposed of 1,468, 1,950, and 2,717 shares of common stock at $49.08 per share each as tax-withholding dispositions to satisfy tax liabilities tied to the vesting of prior equity awards, rather than open‑market sales. A separate grant on February 13, 2026 awarded 4,299 shares of restricted stock at a stated price of $0.00 per share. Footnotes explain that certain performance restricted stock units granted in 2023 vested based on performance through December 31, 2025, and that some of the shares reported as dispositions were forfeited back to the company to cover associated tax obligations.
