FAQ

What did Farmland Partners (FPI) executive Paul Pittman report in this Form 4?

Is Paul Pittman’s Form 4 transaction in FPI stock an open-market sale?

No, the Form 4 describes a tax-withholding disposition, not an open-market sale. Shares were forfeited to cover tax liabilities from vesting restricted shares, meaning the transaction was a routine administrative step tied to equity compensation rather than a discretionary stock sale.

Shares were forfeited to satisfy tax obligations triggered when restricted common stock vested. Instead of paying taxes in cash, a portion of the vested shares was withheld, a common method for executives to handle payroll and income tax liabilities on equity awards.
