Following this withholding, the reporting person beneficially owns 680,061 shares of common stock. The filing identifies the transaction code as F and shows a per-share price of $2.13 used in the net settlement calculation.
- Issuer-handled tax withholding indicates administrative settlement rather than insider selling
- Substantial remaining ownership of 680,061 shares maintains insider alignment with shareholders
- None.
Insights
TL;DR: Routine tax-related withholding of RSUs by the issuer; no open-market sale or change in control.
The Form 4 documents an issuer-withheld disposition to satisfy income tax on RSU vesting rather than a sale executed by the insider. This is a common administrative step following equity compensation vesting and does not reflect a decision to liquidate holdings. The remaining beneficial ownership of 680,061 shares provides continued alignment with shareholders. There are no indications of unusual timing or related-party transactions in the filing.
TL;DR: Transaction is administrative and non-market; minimal direct impact on EGHT's float or liquidity.
The reported 43,208-share withholding reduces the reporting person's direct share count but was conducted by the issuer for tax remittance. Because the shares were not sold on the market, this action should not meaningfully affect market supply or signal insider opportunistic selling. The per-share figure shown ($2.13) appears in the RSU net-settlement calculation and should be interpreted as part of compensation accounting, not a trade execution price.
