FAQ

What did EA executive Jacob Schatz report in this Form 4?

Jacob J. Schatz, EVP, Global Affairs and CLO of Electronic Arts, reported RSU vesting and settlement into common stock on May 16 and 17, 2026. Some resulting shares were withheld to satisfy related tax obligations, a routine compensation-driven event rather than an open-market stock purchase or sale.

Were there any open-market stock sales or purchases by Jacob Schatz in EA shares?

No open-market purchases or sales were reported. The filing shows derivative exercises from Restricted Stock Units and share dispositions coded as “F” solely to cover tax withholding. These transactions reflect equity compensation mechanics, not discretionary trading in Electronic Arts common stock.

How many EA shares were acquired through RSU exercises in this filing?

The transaction summary shows exercises of derivative securities covering 13,815 shares of Electronic Arts common stock. These exercises arise from RSUs settling into shares as they vested on scheduled dates outlined in the award’s vesting terms in the footnotes.

How many EA shares were used to cover taxes for Jacob Schatz’s RSU vesting?

The filing indicates 6,104 shares of Electronic Arts common stock were withheld to satisfy tax withholding requirements. These dispositions, coded “F,” represent payment of tax liabilities by delivering shares rather than open-market stock sales for cash proceeds.

What do the footnotes say about Jacob Schatz’s Restricted Stock Units at EA?

Footnotes explain each RSU represents one share of common stock at settlement. They describe awards vesting in tranches beginning May 16, 2026 and May 17, 2025, with remaining portions vesting approximately every six months until fully vested in 2027 and 2028, respectively.

Are Jacob Schatz’s RSU awards at EA now fully vested?

One RSU award is described as fully vested, while others vest over time. The footnotes note a specific award is fully vested and detail separate RSU grants vesting one-third initially and then in roughly equal six-month increments through May 2027 and May 2028.
