Insights

Equity compensation analyst

Coty granted 86,487 RSUs to its Chief Legal Officer, vesting in 2028.

Coty Inc. disclosed that its Chief Legal Officer received 86,487 Restricted Stock Units on December 22, 2025. Each RSU is tied to one share of Class A common stock, so this award directly links the executive’s compensation to future share value. Following this grant, the filing shows 389,192 derivative securities beneficially owned on a direct basis.

The RSUs vest on October 19, 2028, subject to vesting conditions and exceptions. This creates a multi‑year retention and incentive mechanism, as value realization depends on both continued service and the terms of the award. From an investor perspective, this is a routine equity compensation event rather than a signal of immediate buying or selling activity, and it slightly increases potential future share issuance tied to executive compensation.
