Kimberly-Clark (KMB) CFO logs RSU grant, vesting and tax-withholding share surrender

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Kimberly-Clark Chief Financial Officer Urdaneta Nelson reported routine equity compensation activity involving restricted share units and related tax withholding.

On May 1, 2026, Nelson received a grant of 14,334 restricted share units payable on a 1‑for‑1 basis in Kimberly-Clark common stock, with additional units accrued based on dividends. On the same date, previously granted restricted share units vested and were paid out in common shares, including 3,337 and 3,384 units that were converted into common stock.

To cover tax obligations upon these vestings, 1,332 and 1,314 common shares were automatically surrendered to the issuer, classified as tax-withholding dispositions rather than open-market sales. After these transactions, Nelson continues to hold a substantial direct position in Kimberly-Clark common stock, as reflected in the reported post-transaction share balances.

restricted share units financial

"Represents restricted share units that have vested and are paid out in shares of common stock."

Restricted share units (RSUs) are a promise from a company to give an employee or service provider actual shares or cash equal to the shares after certain conditions are met, typically staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance targets. Think of them like a time-locked gift card that becomes usable only after you’ve earned it. For investors, RSUs matter because they align employee incentives with company performance and can increase the number of shares outstanding over time, diluting existing ownership and affecting earnings per share.

Equity Participation Plan financial

"granted under the Kimberly-Clark Corporation Equity Participation Plan."

tax withholding obligations financial

"to satisfy the reporting person's tax withholding obligations."

derivative security financial

"Exercise or conversion of derivative security"

A derivative security is a financial contract whose value comes from the price or performance of something else, such as a stock, bond, commodity, or market index. For investors it acts like an insurance policy or a wager: it can be used to protect against losses, lock in prices, or amplify gains and losses, so it can change a portfolio’s risk and potential return without owning the underlying asset directly.

automatic surrender of shares financial

"This transaction represents the automatic surrender of shares to the issuer"
