R. Martin Chavez, a director of Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL), received multiple Class C Google Stock Units (GSUs) and dividend equivalent units (DEUs) tied to existing GSUs that vest over time. The reported transactions on 09/15/2025 show acquisitions of DEUs and GSUs in several grant tranches: totals reported following the transactions include 2,036; 1,312; 1,392; and 1,934 Class C Google Stock Units across separate grant lines, plus 8,453 shares of Class C capital stock held directly. The DEUs reflect dividend equivalents declared earlier and will convert to one share of Class C capital stock per DEU as they vest on the same schedule as the underlying GSUs. Vesting schedules are monthly in varying proportions (1/48th monthly or mixed 1/48th then monthly changes), and the reported acquisitions list $0 as the price, indicating these were compensatory equity vesting and dividend-equivalent accruals rather than open-market purchases.

R. Martin Chavez, direttore di Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL), ha ricevuto multiple Unit di azioni Class C di Google (GSUs) e unità equivalenti a dividendi (DEUs) legate a GSUs esistenti che maturano nel tempo. Le transazioni riportate il 15/09/2025 mostrano acquisizioni di DEU e GSU in diverse tranche di concessione: i totali riportati dopo le operazioni includono 2.036; 1.312; 1.392; e 1.934 unità di azioni Google di classe C in linee di concessione separate, oltre a 8.453 azioni di capitale di classe C detenute direttamente. Le DEU riflettono equivalenti di dividendi dichiarati in precedenza e si convertiranno in una azione di capitale di classe C per DEU man mano che maturano secondo lo stesso calendario delle GSU sottostanti. I calendario di vesting sono mensili in proporzioni variabili (1/48 mensile o mix 1/48 e poi cambiamenti mensili), e le acquisizioni riportate indicano un prezzo di 0$, a indicare che si è trattato di vesting di equity compensatorio e accumulation di equivalenti di dividendi piuttosto che di acquisti sul mercato aperto.

Las transacciones reportadas el 15/09/2025 muestran adquisiciones de DEUs y GSUs en varias franjas de concesión: los totales reportados tras las operaciones incluyen 2,036; 1,312; 1,392; y 1,934 Unidades de Acciones Clase C de Google en líneas de concesión separadas, además de 8,453 acciones de capital Clase C mantenidas directamente.

Los calendarios de vesting son mensuales en proporciones variables (1/48 mensual o mixto 1/48 y luego cambios mensuales), y las adquisiciones reportadas señalan un precio de $0, lo que indica que se trató de vesting de equity compensatorio y acumulación de equivalentes de dividendos, en lugar de compras en el mercado abierto.

R. Martin Chavez는 Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL)의 이사로서 기존 GSUs에 연결된 Class C Google 주식단위(GSU)와 배당금에 상응하는 단위(DEU)를 다수 수령했으며, 이들은 시간이 지나며 vest 됩니다. 2025년 9월 15일 보고된 거래는 여러 부여 구간에서 DEU와 GSU의 취득을 보여주며, 거래 후 보고된 합계는 2,036; 1,312; 1,392; 1,934의 Class C Google 주식단위를 각기 다른 부여 라인에서 포함하고, 추가로 직접 보유한 Class C 자본주식 8,453주가 있습니다. DEU는 이전에 선언된 배당금 등가를 반영하며, 기초가 되는 GSU와 동일한 일정에 따라 vest될 때 DEU당 Class C 자본주식 한 주로 전환됩니다. vesting 일정은 매월 다르게 비율로 진행되며(매월 1/48 또는 혼합 1/48 이후 매월 변화), 보고된 취득은 가격이 0달러로 표시되어 이는 오픈마켓 매입이 아니라 보상용 주식 vesting 및 배당 등가 누적임을 의미합니다.

R. Martin Chavez, directeur chez Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL), a reçu plusieurs unités d’actions Google de classe C (GSUs) et unités équivalentes à des dividendes (DEUs) liées à des GSUs existantes qui se vèrent au fil du temps. Les transactions rapportées le 15/09/2025 montrent des acquisitions de DEUs et de GSUs dans plusieurs tranches de subventions : les totaux rapportés après les transactions incluent 2 036; 1 312; 1 392 et 1 934 unités d’actions Google de classe C dans des lignes de subvention distinctes, ainsi que 8 453 actions du capital de classe C détenues directement. Les DEUs reflètent des équivalents de dividendes déclarés précédemment et se convertiront en une action du capital de classe C par DEU à mesure qu’ils se vèrent selon le même calendrier que les GSUs sous-jacentes. Les calendriers de vesting sont mensuels en proportions variables (1/48 mensuel ou mixte 1/48 puis changements mensuels), et les acquisitions rapportées indiquent un prix de 0 $, ce qui signifie qu’il s’agit de vesting d’equity compensatoire et d’accumulations d’équivalents de dividendes plutôt que d’achats sur le marché libre.

R. Martin Chavez, ein Direktor von Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL), erhielt mehrere Class-C-Google-Stock-Einheiten (GSUs) und dividendenäquivalente Einheiten (DEUs), die an bestehenden GSUs gebunden sind und mit der Zeit vesten. Die am 15.09.2025 gemeldeten Transaktionen zeigen Erwerbungen von DEUs und GSUs in mehreren Gewährungslinien: Die nach den Transaktionen gemeldeten Gesamtsummen umfassen 2.036; 1.312; 1.392 und 1.934 Class-C-Google-Stock-Einheiten über separate Gewährungslinien sowie 8.453 Aktien des Class-C-Kapitals, die direkt gehalten werden. Die DEUs spiegeln zuvor erklärte Dividendenäquivalente wider und werden jeweils in eine Class-C-Kapitalaktie pro DEU umgewandelt, sobald sie vesten, gemäß dem gleichen Zeitplan wie die zugrunde liegenden GSUs. Die Vesting-Pläne erfolgen monatlich in unterschiedlichen Anteilen (monatlich 1/48 oder gemischte 1/48 gefolgt von monatlichen Änderungen), und die gemeldeten Erwerbungen weisen einen Preis von 0 $ aus, was darauf hindeutet, dass es sich um kompensatorische Aktienvestings und Ansammlungen von Dividendenäquivalenten handelt statt um Käufe am freien Markt.

(GOOGL)، تلقى وحدات أسهم Google من الفئة C (GSUs) متعددة ووحدات مقابل الأرباح (DEUs) مرتبطة بـ GSUs موجودة تتقيد بالتأصل مع مرور الوقت. تُظهر المعاملات المبلغ عنها في 15/09/2025 acquisitions من DEUs و GSUs في عدة شرائح من المنح: الإجماليات المبلغ عنها بعد المعاملات تشمل 2,036؛ 1,312؛ 1,392؛ و1,934 وحدة أسهم من فئة C في Google عبر خطوط منح منفصلة، بالإضافة إلى 8,453 سهمًا من رأس مال الفئة C مملوك مباشرة. DEUs تعكس مكافآت أرباح أعلنت سابقًا وستتحول إلى سهم واحد من رأس مال الفئة C لكل DEU مع نضوجها وفق الجدول نفسه لـ GSUs الأساسية. جداول الاستحقاق (vesting) شهرية وبنسب متفاوتة (1/48 شهريًا أو خليط 1/48 ثم تغييرات شهرية)، والمعاملات المبلغ عنها تشير إلى سعر 0 دولار، مما يدل على أنها تخصيص أسهم تعويضي وتراكمات مكافآت أرباح بدلًا من شراء في السوق المفتوح.

R. Martin Chavez,Alphabet Inc.(GOOGL)的董事,收到了多份与现有 GSUs 相关的 Google 类别C股股票单位(GSUs)及股息等值单位(DEUs),其归属期会逐步完成。 2025年9月15日的披露交易显示在若干授予批次中取得了 DEU 与 GSU 的权利:交易后的总计包括 2,036、1,312、1,392 和 1,934 份 Class C Google 股份单位,均来自不同的授予线,以及另外直接持有的 8,453 股 Class C 股本。DEU 反映了此前宣布的股息等值,随着与之对应的 GSU 相同的计划 vest,它们将每个 DEU 转换为一股 Class C 股本。 vesting 计划为按月进行,比例各异(每月 1/48 或混合为 1/48 后按月变动),且披露的取得价格为 0 美元,表明这是补偿性股权的 vesting 与股息等价累积,而非公开市场购买。

Positive
  • Director acquired additional GSUs and DEUs through scheduled vesting, increasing beneficial ownership and aligning interests with shareholders
  • DEUs convert one-for-one into Class C shares as they vest, preserving the economic value of declared dividends for the reporting person
Negative

Insights

TL;DR: Routine director equity vesting increased insider holdings; no cash purchases or sales reported, so limited immediate market impact.

This Form 4 documents compensatory equity vesting and dividend-equivalent accruals for a board director rather than active trading. The transactions increase the reporting person's beneficial ownership across multiple GSU tranches and reflect previously granted awards paying DEUs tied to a declared dividend. Because the reported price is $0 and the activity is vesting-driven, these entries are typically neutral for short-term liquidity or market signaling, though they modestly raise insider stake alignment with shareholders.

TL;DR: Vesting of director equity aligns compensation with service; disclosure is standard and increases disclosed ownership.

The filing clarifies the nature and schedule of multiple GSU grants and associated dividend equivalent units, noting monthly vesting schedules and conversion terms (one share per GSU or DEU upon vesting). From a governance perspective, documented vesting schedules and DEU treatment are consistent with typical director compensation practices and enhance transparency about insider alignment without indicating any change in control or extraordinary compensation events.
