Insights

Equity compensation analyst

Small, routine stock grant to a director; no major signal.

Director James Owens acquired 279 shares of Donaldson Company common stock through a grant/award at $85.23 per share. This is characterized as a non-derivative, compensation-related acquisition rather than a market trade.
