FAQ

Patrick O'Brien reported acquiring 31,961 ordinary shares of GREENLIGHT CAPITAL RE, LTD. This came from vested restricted stock units converting into shares, recorded as a grant or award at a stated price of $0.00 per share, reflecting non-cash equity compensation.

Was the GLRE COO’s recent Form 4 transaction a market purchase or sale?

The transaction was not a market purchase or sale. It was coded as an acquisition via grant or award, with a footnote stating vested restricted stock units converted to ordinary shares, meaning the COO received shares as part of his compensation package.

How many GLRE shares does Patrick O'Brien hold after this transaction?

After the transaction, Patrick O'Brien directly holds 202,386 ordinary shares of GREENLIGHT CAPITAL RE, LTD. This total reflects the addition of 31,961 shares received when previously granted restricted stock units vested and automatically converted into ordinary shares.

What does the $0.0000 price on the GLRE Form 4 transaction indicate?

The $0.0000 per share price indicates no cash changed hands in this transaction. The shares were received through the vesting of restricted stock units, so the COO acquired 31,961 ordinary shares as compensation rather than buying them in the open market.

Does the GLRE Form 4 show any derivative exercises or option activity?

The Form 4 does not show any derivative exercises or option activity. The filing describes a single non-derivative acquisition of ordinary shares, arising from restricted stock units vesting and converting, and the derivative position summary is empty for this reporting period.

Is the GLRE COO’s share acquisition considered a strong insider signal?

This acquisition is a routine compensation-related event, not an open-market purchase. Because the 31,961 shares came from restricted stock units vesting, it is generally viewed as standard equity compensation rather than a strong timing signal about the company’s share price.
