Insights

Equity compensation and insider-trading analyst

Carnival’s CFO reported routine equity vesting and a same-day share sale.

David Bernstein, CFO & CAO of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc, reported the vesting of 333,805 performance-based restricted stock unit-linked Trust Shares at $0 and the sale of 361,790 Trust Shares at $33.2151 on February 10, 2026.

The footnotes state these Trust Shares stem from performance-based restricted stock units for the 2023–2025 period, which vested at 170.4% of target under the company’s 2020 Stock Plan. This links the acquisition to compensation rather than discretionary open-market buying.

After the sale, Bernstein directly held 112,068 Trust Shares, which represent beneficial interests in a special voting share tied to Carnival plc. Overall, this looks like a typical executive equity-vesting and liquidity event rather than a transaction that, on its own, alters the broader investment picture.
