Were the share disposals by EAF executive Clemens open-market sales?

The disposals reported by Jeremy Joseph Clemens were tax-withholding transactions, not open-market sales. The Form 4 uses code “F,” indicating shares were delivered to cover exercise price or tax liabilities arising from RSU conversions rather than discretionary selling into the market.

FAQ

AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.

What insider activity did EAF VP Jeremy Joseph Clemens report on this Form 4?

Jeremy Joseph Clemens reported RSU conversions into GrafTech (EAF) common stock and related tax-withholding dispositions. Several batches of restricted stock units were exercised into common shares, and a portion of those shares was surrendered to satisfy tax obligations, leaving him with 6,433 directly held common shares.

How many GrafTech (EAF) common shares does Jeremy Joseph Clemens hold after the transactions?

After the reported transactions, Jeremy Joseph Clemens directly holds 6,433 shares of GrafTech common stock. This balance reflects RSU conversions on February 25, 2026 and automatic share dispositions used to pay associated tax liabilities, as disclosed in the Form 4 filing.

What do the RSU footnotes in the EAF Form 4 reveal about prior grants?

The footnotes show Clemens received RSU grants of 405 units in 2022, 1,708 units in 2023, and 11,308 units in 2025. These awards accrue dividend-equivalent RSUs when dividends are declared and vest in scheduled annual installments beginning in 2023, 2024, and 2026 respectively.

How did GrafTech’s reverse stock split affect the numbers in this Form 4?

GrafTech completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its common stock on August 29, 2025. The filing states that all RSU and common share amounts in the Form 4 are presented on this post-split basis, meaning the quantities already reflect the adjusted share count.

What is the conversion ratio for EAF restricted stock units held by Clemens?

Each restricted stock unit reported by Clemens converts into one share of GrafTech common stock. A footnote specifies that RSUs convert on a one-for-one basis, so the number of vested RSUs directly determines the number of common shares received upon conversion events.

What happened to GrafTech’s quarterly dividend referenced in the footnotes?

The footnotes state that on August 2, 2023, GrafTech’s board suspended the quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per share. This matters because the RSUs had been accruing additional units through dividend equivalent rights when dividends were declared, and that mechanism pauses with the suspension.
