Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Boyd Gaming Corp director and chairman Marianne Boyd Johnson reported an acquisition of common stock through a compensation award. On 2026-05-07, a grant of 2,347 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) was made to her for no cash consideration under the company’s 2020 Stock Incentive Plan. The RSUs fully vested on the grant date, and one share of Boyd Gaming common stock was issued for each RSU to a trust for which she serves as trustee.

After this award, that trust holds 1,612,155 shares of Boyd Gaming common stock indirectly. The filing also lists additional indirect holdings through limited partnerships and limited liability companies, as well as 39,088 shares held directly in her name, indicating that this grant is a relatively small addition to her overall reported ownership.

Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") financial
"The Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") were granted to the Reporting Person for no consideration..."
Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a company promise to give an employee shares of stock (or cash equivalent) in the future, but only after certain conditions—usually staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance goals—are met. Investors watch RSUs because when they vest they increase the number of shares outstanding and can lead insiders to sell shares, affecting share price, company dilution and the true cost of employee pay.
2020 Stock Incentive Plan financial
"RSUs were granted ... for no consideration under Issuer's 2020 Stock Incentive Plan."
non-derivative financial
"transaction_type": "non-derivative" for the 2,347-share RSU-related acquisition."
indirect ownership financial
""ownership_type": "indirect" with nature of ownership listed as trusts and entities."
Limited Partnership financial
"By BG-00 Limited Partnership, of which the Marianne Boyd Gaming Properties Trust ... is the general partner."
A limited partnership is a legal business structure with two types of partners: at least one general partner who runs the business and bears full legal responsibility, and one or more limited partners who contribute money, share profits, and have liability capped at their investment. For investors, it matters because it separates control from financial exposure — like putting money into a store without managing it — and affects how returns, risks, taxes and transferability of ownership are handled.
