Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL) director Roger W. Ferguson Jr. reported multiple transactions related to Google Stock Units (GSUs) and dividend equivalent units (DEUs) on June 16, 2025. The transactions include:
- Acquisition of 1 DEU for 865 total units (860 GSUs + 5 DEUs) vesting monthly at 1/48th rate from July 2022
- Acquisition of 2 DEUs for 1,489 total units (1,480 GSUs + 9 DEUs) vesting monthly at 1/48th rate from July 2023
- Acquisition of 2 DEUs for 1,513 total units (1,506 GSUs + 7 DEUs) vesting monthly over 48 months
Ferguson currently holds 7,055 shares of Class C Capital Stock directly and 53,300 shares indirectly through the Roger W Ferguson Jr 2016 Revocable Trust. The DEUs were granted in connection with Alphabet's cash dividend declared on June 9, 2025, and will vest according to the same schedule as their underlying GSUs.
Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL) – Form 4 insider transaction filing
On 06/16/2025, Chief Executive Officer and Director Sundar Pichai reported the automatic acquisition of 265 Class C Google Stock Units (GSUs). These units are classified as dividend-equivalent units (DEUs) that accrued on previously granted GSUs following Alphabet’s recent cash dividend, and therefore carry an acquisition price of $0.
After this transaction Mr. Pichai’s reported beneficial ownership stands at:
- 224,434 Class C GSUs/DEUs (1,290 DEUs and 223,144 GSUs)
- 227,560 Class A common shares
- 2,587,696 Class C capital shares
The new GSUs vest on the same quarterly schedule as the underlying GSUs (1/12th quarterly through full vesting), contingent upon continued employment. No derivative securities were exercised or disposed of, and no sales were reported. Because the reported amount represents less than 0.01 % of Mr. Pichai’s existing equity position and was generated through regular dividend accrual rather than open-market purchase, the filing is considered routine and carries limited immediate valuation impact.
Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL) – Form 4 insider transaction filed 18-Jun-2025
President & CIO Ruth M. Porat reported automatic accrual of 251 dividend-equivalent units (DEUs) related to previously granted Class C Google Stock Units (GSUs) on 16-Jun-2025, attributable to the company’s June 2025 cash dividend. The DEUs—78, 50 and 123 units across three outstanding GSU grants—carry a zero acquisition price and will vest on the same schedules as the underlying GSUs.
Post-transaction beneficial ownership:
- Direct GSUs/DEUs: 66,533 + 42,559 + 104,568 = 213,660 units
- Direct Class C shares: 667,068
- Indirect Class C shares via family trusts: 1,295,000 (120,000 + 200,000 + 975,000)
No sales or option exercises were disclosed; all transactions were automatic accruals stemming from the dividend policy. The filing does not cite any 10b5-1 trading plan and reflects continued alignment of executive compensation with shareholder value.
Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL) – Form 4 insider transaction filed 18 Jun 2025
Vice President & Chief Accounting Officer Amie Thuener O’Toole reported automatic acquisitions tied to previously granted Class C Google Stock Units (GSUs). On 16 Jun 2025 she received 24 GSUs under grant (1) and 22 GSUs under grant (4), both priced at $0 because they are dividend-equivalent units (DEUs) that accrued from Alphabet’s 2025 cash dividend. No open-market buys or sales occurred.
Post-transaction direct holdings stand at 20,362 GSUs under grant (1), 18,513 GSUs under grant (4), plus 8,940 Class A shares and 17,209 Class C shares. Vesting schedules run monthly from March 2025 through March 2027, contingent on continued employment.
The filing reflects routine administrative accruals and is immaterial relative to Alphabet’s multi-billion-share float; therefore it is unlikely to influence valuation, liquidity, or governance.
