Insights
CEO equity awards were cashed out or converted as part of Masimo’s sale to Danaher.
The filing shows Masimo’s CEO having all visible Masimo equity positions either canceled for cash or converted into Danaher equity when the merger closed at $180.00 per share. These are issuer dispositions tied to the deal terms, not open-market trading.
Unvested RSUs move into Danaher stock, while options and PSUs receive cash based on the merger price and each award’s strike or target. For investors, this mainly confirms how executive equity was treated at closing; the economic impact was largely embedded when the cash merger price of $180.00 per share was agreed on February 16, 2026.
