Insights

Routine ESPP purchase and tax withholding with substantial holdings retained.

Richard W. Schlecht, SVP of Product Development & Sourcing at Duluth Holdings, acquired 1,000 shares of Class B Common Stock at $1.76 per share via the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. This is a compensation-related acquisition, not an open-market bet.

A separate disposition of 1,211 shares at $3.09 on tax-withholding code F covered obligations on restricted stock vesting, again not a market sale. Afterward, he still directly owns 403,221 shares and indirectly 88,660 shares in UTMA accounts, so the transactions are small relative to his overall position.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan financial
"These shares were acquired under the Duluth Holdings Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan."
An employee stock purchase plan is a company program that lets workers buy shares through small payroll deductions, often at a discount to the market price and after a set offering period. Think of it like a workplace savings plan that turns into ownership: it encourages employees to share in the company’s success and can create predictable buying or selling of stock that investors watch because it affects supply, demand and employee incentives.
restricted stock financial
"Represents shares used to satisfy tax withholding obligation upon vesting of restricted stock."
Shares granted to an individual that carry limits on transfer or sale until certain conditions are met, such as staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance targets. Think of them as a locked gift that gradually opens; for investors they matter because they affect how many shares may enter the market later, signal management incentives and potential dilution, and reveal confidence in future company performance.
UTMA accounts financial
"These shares are held by reporting person's children in UTMA accounts."

FAQ

What insider transactions did DLTH executive Richard Schlecht report on this Form 4?

Richard Schlecht reported two main entries: an acquisition of 1,000 Class B shares at $1.76 via Duluth’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan and a disposition of 1,211 shares at $3.09 to cover tax withholding on vested restricted stock.

Was the DLTH insider’s share disposition an open-market sale?

No. The 1,211-share disposition was coded “F” and described as shares used to satisfy tax withholding on restricted stock vesting. This is a non-market event where shares are withheld to pay taxes, not a discretionary sale on the open market.

How many Duluth Holdings (DLTH) shares does Richard Schlecht hold after these transactions?

After the reported transactions, Richard Schlecht directly holds 403,221 Class B shares and indirectly holds 88,660 shares in UTMA accounts for his children. These figures show a substantial continuing ownership position following the ESPP purchase and tax withholding.

What is the significance of the 1,000 DLTH shares acquired by Richard Schlecht?

The 1,000 shares were acquired at $1.76 per share under Duluth Holdings’ Employee Stock Purchase Plan. This reflects routine participation in a company benefit program rather than a large, directional market purchase, given his over 403,000 shares held directly afterward.

What does it mean that some DLTH shares are held in UTMA accounts for Richard Schlecht’s children?

The Form 4 notes 88,660 shares of Class B Common Stock are held in UTMA accounts for his children, reported as indirect ownership. UTMA accounts are custodial accounts for minors, so these shares are associated with his family rather than held directly in his own name.
