Caterpillar Inc. (CAT) – Form 4 Insider Filing

Director David W. MacLennan reported the acquisition of 43 phantom stock units on 30 June 2025 under the company’s Director’s Deferred Compensation Plan. Each unit mirrors one share of Caterpillar common stock and is to be settled 100 % in cash when the director retires or leaves the board. The transaction, coded “A,” was executed at a reference price of $386.98 per underlying share, implying an incremental economic value of roughly $16.6 thousand. Following the award, MacLennan now beneficially owns 277 phantom stock units, all held directly. Because these units were granted in lieu of cash compensation, no open-market purchase or sale of Caterpillar equity occurred, and there is no immediate dilution or cash outflow for the company.

Il direttore David W. MacLennan ha segnalato l’acquisizione di 43 unità di azioni fantasma il 30 giugno 2025 nell’ambito del Piano di Compensazione Differita per i Direttori della società. Ogni unità rappresenta una azione ordinaria di Caterpillar e sarà liquidata interamente in contanti al momento del pensionamento o dell’uscita del direttore dal consiglio. La transazione, contrassegnata con il codice “A,” è stata effettuata a un prezzo di riferimento di 386,98 $ per azione sottostante, implicando un valore economico incrementale di circa 16,6 mila $. Dopo l’assegnazione, MacLennan detiene ora beneficiariamente 277 unità di azioni fantasma, tutte detenute direttamente. Poiché queste unità sono state concesse in sostituzione della compensazione in contanti, non si è verificato alcun acquisto o vendita sul mercato aperto di azioni Caterpillar, e non vi è alcuna diluizione immediata o esborso di cassa per la società.

이사 David W. MacLennan은 2025년 6월 30일 회사의 이사 연기 보상 계획에 따라 43개의 팬텀 스톡 유닛 취득을 보고했습니다. 각 유닛은 Caterpillar 보통주 1주를 반영하며, 이사가 은퇴하거나 이사회에서 물러날 때 100% 현금으로 정산됩니다. “A” 코드로 표시된 거래는 주당 $386.98의 기준 가격으로 실행되었으며, 약 $16,600의 추가 경제적 가치를 의미합니다. 이번 수여 후 MacLennan은 현재 총 277개의 팬텀 스톡 유닛을 직접 보유하고 있습니다. 이 유닛들은 현금 보상 대신 부여된 것이므로 Caterpillar 주식의 공개 시장 매매는 없었고, 회사에는 즉각적인 희석 효과나 현금 유출이 발생하지 않았습니다.

Insights

TL;DR: Routine award of 43 phantom stock units to CAT director; immaterial size and cash-settled—neutral signal for shareholders.

The filing discloses a small, compensation-linked addition to Director MacLennan’s deferred equity balance. At ~$386.98 per unit, the gross value is under $20 k, leaving total holdings at 277 units—insignificant versus Caterpillar’s ~$95 bn market cap. Because phantom units convert to cash rather than shares, there is no share-count impact, and the transaction does not reflect discretionary buying conviction. From a governance standpoint, it shows alignment with the equity value of CAT, but the dollar size and automatic nature make the news non-impactful for valuation or trading decisions.
