• Transaction code: A (grant under compensation plan)
• Implied price: $96.11 per phantom share

The filing neither amends prior reports nor indicates cessation of insider reporting obligations.

Positive

• Insider alignment: Director Brad Cashaw increased his phantom stock balance, tying compensation to share performance.

Negative

• Limited signal value: Phantom stock is cash-settled and does not reflect an open-market equity purchase, offering little insight into insider sentiment.

Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR: Routine deferred-comp grant; minimal market impact.

The Form 4 shows a standard award of 1,248.57 phantom shares to Director Brad Cashaw at an implied $96.11 value, increasing his deferred-comp balance to 4,982.935 shares. Phantom stock is cash-settled and does not directly affect outstanding share count or insider ownership of tradable equity, so signalling value is limited. The grant modestly aligns director compensation with shareholder value but is immaterial relative to CHD’s market capitalization. I view the disclosure as neutral for investors.
