[Form 4] Dolphin Entertainment, Inc. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Goldman Sachs Group (GS) – Form 4 filing: Director Peter Oppenheimer reported a grant of 81 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) on 07/17/2025, representing his Q2-25 board retainer and committee-chair compensation for both Goldman Sachs Group and Goldman Sachs Bank USA. The RSUs will convert into GS common stock roughly 90 days after his retirement from either board. After this award, Oppenheimer holds 6,732 RSUs in total, all classified as direct ownership. No open-market purchases or sales were disclosed, and there is no cash consideration. The transaction is routine director compensation and is immaterial to GS’s share count or earnings.

Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR: Routine 81-share RSU grant to director; negligible financial impact, neutral for GS valuation.

Oppenheimer’s grant equals less than 0.00003% of GS’s ~330 million shares outstanding, so dilution and EPS effects are immaterial. Because the RSUs vest only at retirement, the award serves more as a long-term alignment mechanism than a near-term signal. Absence of open-market buying or selling suggests no directional insight into the stock. For investors, the filing is standard governance disclosure and carries neutral rating.
