Insights
TL;DR: CEO received a modest RSU grant with a three‑year ratable vesting schedule; routine tax-withholdings reduced direct shares.
The Form 4 documents a grant of 13,107 RSUs to Farooq Kathwari, with explicit vesting of one‑third per year starting 08/06/2026, which is a standard time‑based equity award structure. The report separately records two withholding events of 4,168 and 3,507 shares on 08/07/2025 and 08/08/2025 at reported prices $29.31 and $29.26, respectively, to satisfy tax obligations. Beneficial ownership totals decline across the reported lines from 1,625,012 to 1,617,337 (direct), while several indirect holdings by family and a 401(k) plan are disclosed. All items are clearly disclosed and consistent with routine executive compensation administration.
TL;DR: Insider equity activity shows a grant plus tax‑related share withholdings; ownership disclosures provide exact share counts for direct and indirect holdings.
The filing provides precise transaction data: a 13,107 RSU grant (zero purchase price), and two dispositions for tax withholding of 4,168 and 3,507 shares at $29.31 and $29.26. The sequence of reported beneficial ownership figures—1,625,012, 1,620,844, and 1,617,337—allows reconciliation of the grant and subsequent withholdings. Indirect holdings of 15,364, 8,565.25, and 91,600 shares are disclosed. The record is detailed and quantifiable for modeling insider holdings and potential dilution from future vesting.
