Darden Restaurants (DRI) – Form 4 filed 29 Jul 2025
Olive Garden President Daniel J. Kiernan converted previously granted equity awards into common stock on 27-28 Jul 2025. He received 6,428 FY23 performance RSUs, 3,214 FY23 annual-grant RSUs and 2,945 FY22 performance RSUs, creating 12,587 new shares. Mandatory tax-withholding sales (Code F) disposed of 1,265, 2,530 and 1,159 shares at $204.48, trimming the gross addition by 4,954 shares. After the activities, his direct beneficial holding rose to 34,988.094 shares, roughly 1,205 shares more than before the transactions. Indirect 401(k) holdings total 146.7221 shares.
Spousal accounts mirrored the vestings on a far smaller scale and ended with 242 shares after an 85-share discretionary sale at $203.91 on 29 Jul 2025 (Code S). All other sales were automatic to cover taxes. No options or other derivatives remain outstanding from the exercised awards. Net outcome: insider ownership increased modestly, with only a de-minimis open-market sale.

Darden Restaurants (DRI) Form 4 – 29 Jul 2025: CFO Rajesh Vennam reported multiple transactions tied to FY22-FY23 equity awards. On 27-28 Jul 2025 he exercised 13,643 restricted/performance stock units at $0 (7,284 + 3,642 + 2,717 shares, code “M”). To satisfy tax-withholding obligations he disposed of 5,165 shares at $204.48 (code “F”).
The net result is an increase of 8,478 shares; his beneficial ownership rose from 11,867.51 to 13,061.51 common shares after the final transaction. All holdings remain directly owned. No open-market sales occurred; share deductions were administrative for taxes. The derivative table shows the FY23 performance RSUs will continue vesting through 27 Jul 2026.
These routine award conversions signal continued equity alignment by the finance chief but do not, by themselves, indicate a directional view on DRI’s valuation.
