[Form 4] Acushnet Holdings Corp. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Form 4 overview: On 06/20/2025, Acushnet Holdings Corp. (ticker: GOLF) insider Roland A. Giroux, Executive Vice President, Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary, reported a routine acquisition of common stock arising from dividend equivalent rights on previously granted restricted and performance stock units under the company’s deferred-compensation plan.

Key details

• Shares acquired: 162.72
• Average price: $71.22 per share (automatically credited, not an open-market purchase)
• Total beneficial ownership after transaction: 61,572.135 common shares, held directly
• No derivative securities were reported as bought or sold in this filing

The transaction reflects the automatic accrual of dividends on deferred equity awards and does not involve discretionary buying or selling by the insider. Given the small size (≈0.26% of Giroux’s holdings and immaterial relative to Acushnet’s ~67 million shares outstanding), the market impact is expected to be minimal. However, continued accumulation can signal long-term alignment between management and shareholders.

Insights

Equity Compensation Analyst

TL;DR: Routine dividend-equivalent accrual; minimal market impact.

The filing shows a standard crediting of 162.72 shares from dividend equivalents tied to outstanding restricted and performance stock units. Such credits occur each quarter when the company pays its dividend and therefore are non-volitional. The insider’s ownership rises to 61,572 shares, reinforcing continued alignment but adding less than US$12,000 in market value—negligible versus Acushnet’s US$4 billion capitalization. No open-market buying signal or derivative activity is present. I classify the disclosure as neutral and not materially impactful to valuation.
