FAQ

What insider transaction did EQH Chief Operating Officer Jeffrey Hurd report?

Jeffrey J. Hurd reported receiving 23,992 shares of Equitable Holdings common stock on February 11, 2026. The award is in the form of restricted stock units under the 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan and represents a compensation-related equity grant rather than an open-market stock purchase.

Was the EQH insider transaction a stock purchase or an equity grant?

The transaction was an equity grant, not a market purchase. Hurd received 23,992 restricted stock units under Equitable Holdings’ 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan, classified as an acquisition under transaction code “A,” reflecting a grant, award, or similar compensation-related issuance of common stock units.

How many EQH shares does Jeffrey Hurd beneficially own after this Form 4 filing?

How do the restricted stock units granted to EQH’s COO vest over time?

The 23,992 restricted stock units vest in three equal annual installments beginning February 28, 2027. Each installment represents one-third of the grant, and vested shares are scheduled to be delivered to Hurd within 30 days following each vesting date, subject to the plan’s standard conditions.

What does each restricted stock unit granted by Equitable Holdings represent?

Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of Equitable Holdings common stock upon vesting. The units do not immediately convert into tradable shares; instead, shares are delivered after vesting, generally within 30 days of each applicable vesting date under the plan.

Under which plan were the EQH restricted stock units to Jeffrey Hurd granted?

The restricted stock units were granted under Equitable Holdings’ 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The filing specifies that the grant is exempt under Rule 16b-3, indicating it is a board- or committee-approved equity compensation award made to an executive officer as part of incentive-based compensation.
