Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Coty Inc. Chief Corp. Affairs Officer Anna von Bayern reported that 61,050 restricted stock units vested on October 19, 2026, settling into 61,050 shares of Class A common stock. Of those shares, 4,457 were surrendered to the issuer for income-tax withholding; this was not a sale. She also acquired 6,105 shares upon partial vesting of performance restricted stock units, and 446 shares were surrendered for tax withholding, not sold. The ESG-ratings-improvement criterion met 100% of its target and accounted for 10% of the total vesting weighting; the other criteria were not achieved, so the remaining 90% of the target award opportunity was unearned and cancelled without share issuance. Separately, she acquired 61,050 restricted stock units that vest on October 19, 2029, subject to certain vesting conditions and exceptions. No Rule 10b5-1 plan is reported.
