Clarivate PLC insider transactions by Jonathan Mark Collins show two non-derivative disposals in August 2025. On 08/13/2025 he had 140,645 ordinary shares withheld to cover taxes on vested restricted share units at a reported price of $4.26, leaving him with 825,434 shares directly beneficially owned after that transaction. On 08/15/2025 a second disposal of 48,387 ordinary shares was reported at $0, reducing his direct ownership to 777,047 shares. The filing lists Collins as Executive Vice President/CFO and a director and is filed individually.

Insights
TL;DR: Two reported disposals—tax withholding on RSU vesting and a divorce-related transfer—reduce the CFO 's direct holdings.
The filing documents routine tax withholding (140,645 shares at $4.26) and a non-compensatory transfer (48,387 shares) under a divorce settlement. Both are disclosed as direct disposals, with clear post-transaction balances reported. These are compliance-driven transactions rather than market trades tied to compensation realization or active stock sales for liquidity. Documentation of the divorce transfer appropriately removes shares from the reporting person 's beneficial ownership for Section 16 purposes.
TL;DR: Transactions are administrative and non-material to company capital structure; reductions reflected in reported direct holdings.
The Form 4 records withholding to satisfy tax obligations on RSU vesting and a transfer by divorce settlement, both resulting in decreased direct holdings from 825,434 to 777,047 shares. Prices reported are $4.26 for the withholding event and $0 for the divorce transfer (no consideration). The filing identifies the reporting person as Executive VP/CFO and director, and the form is individually filed and signed by an attorney-in-fact.
