Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Church & Dwight (CHD) – Form 4 filing, 1 Aug 2025. EVP Chief Technology & Global New Products Carlos G. Linares reported the automatic acquisition of 27.338 phantom shares on 31 Jul 2025 at an imputed price of $93.77 each. The phantom stock was credited under the company’s Deferred Compensation Plan and will be settled in cash; no common shares were purchased on the open market. Following this routine accrual, Linares now holds 17,085.092 phantom units linked 1-for-1 to CHD common stock, all shown as directly owned.

The transaction is coded “A” (acquisition) and appears to reflect ongoing compensation deferral rather than an active investment decision. There are no dispositions, option exercises or open-market buys/sells disclosed in the filing, and no change to Linares’s ownership of non-derivative CHD shares was reported.

Church & Dwight (CHD) – Comunicazione Form 4, 1 agosto 2025. Carlos G. Linares, EVP Chief Technology & Global New Products, ha segnalato l'acquisizione automatica di 27.338 azioni fantasma il 31 luglio 2025 a un prezzo imputato di 93,77 $ ciascuna. Le azioni fantasma sono state accreditate nell'ambito del Piano di Compensazione Differita della società e verranno liquidate in contanti; non sono state acquistate azioni ordinarie sul mercato aperto. A seguito di questa normale contabilizzazione, Linares detiene ora 17.085,092 unità fantasma collegate 1 a 1 alle azioni ordinarie CHD, tutte indicate come possedute direttamente.

La transazione è codificata come “A” (acquisizione) e sembra riflettere una differita compensazione continuativa piuttosto che una decisione di investimento attiva. Nel documento non sono riportate cessioni, esercizi di opzioni o acquisti/vendite sul mercato aperto, né variazioni nella proprietà di azioni CHD non derivate da parte di Linares.

Church & Dwight (CHD) – 2025년 8월 1일 Form 4 제출. EVP 최고기술책임자 겸 글로벌 신제품 담당 Carlos G. Linares는 2025년 7월 31일에 27,338개의 팬텀 주식 자동 취득을 신고했으며, 각 주식의 평가 가격은 $93.77입니다. 팬텀 주식은 회사의 이연 보상 계획에 따라 적립되었으며 현금으로 정산될 예정입니다; 공개 시장에서 보통주를 매입하지는 않았습니다. 이 일상적인 적립 이후 Linares는 현재 CHD 보통주와 1대1로 연결된 17,085.092개의 팬텀 단위를 보유하고 있으며, 모두 직접 소유로 보고되어 있습니다.

거래는 “A”(취득)로 분류되며, 적극적인 투자 결정보다는 지속적인 보상 이연을 반영하는 것으로 보입니다. 제출서에는 처분, 옵션 행사, 공개 시장 매매가 없으며, Linares의 비파생 CHD 주식 소유에 대한 변경도 보고되지 않았습니다.

Insights

TL;DR: Small, routine phantom-stock accrual under deferred comp; negligible market impact.

The 27-share addition (≈$2.6k) is immaterial relative to CHD’s 242 m outstanding shares and the insider’s existing 17 k phantom units. Because phantom stock settles in cash, it does not contribute to share count dilution or signal direct equity conviction. The filing contains no insider sales and therefore offers no negative sentiment, but the scale is too small to be a positive indicator. Overall, it is a normal compensation deferral entry with neutral valuation implications.

TL;DR: Compensation-related credit; governance posture unchanged.

Deferred-compensation phantom stock aligns executive pay with share performance without issuing new equity. The mechanism is standard practice and does not affect voting power or trigger Rule 10b5-1 safe-harbor considerations. No red flags appear in timing or structure. Investors should view this as administrative, not a signal of insider sentiment.
