What insider transaction did Moody's (MCO) director Jorge A. Bermudez report?

Jorge A. Bermudez reported receiving additional Moody's common stock as equity awards, not market trades. He acquired 20 shares from a restricted stock deferred dividend reinvestment accrual and 1.482 shares from an RSU deferred dividend reinvestment accrual, both recorded as grants at zero purchase price.

How many Moody's (MCO) shares does Jorge A. Bermudez hold after this Form 4?

Were Jorge A. Bermudez’s Moody's (MCO) transactions open-market buys or sells?

The transactions were not open-market buys or sells. Both entries are coded as grants or awards, representing deferred dividend reinvestment accruals on restricted stock and RSUs, with a reported price per share of 0.0000, indicating compensation-related accounting rather than market trading activity.

What do the footnotes in Jorge A. Bermudez’s Moody's (MCO) Form 4 explain?

The footnotes clarify that the 20-share transaction is a restricted stock deferred dividend reinvestment accrual, while the 1.482-share transaction is an RSU deferred dividend reinvestment accrual. This explains that the additional shares result from dividend reinvestment mechanisms tied to existing equity awards, not discretionary stock purchases.

Does this Moody's (MCO) Form 4 indicate any derivative exercises by Jorge A. Bermudez?

No derivative exercises are indicated in this Form 4. The filing shows only non-derivative common stock transactions classified as grants or awards, with the derivative position summary empty and no exercise-related transaction codes such as option or other convertible security exercises reported.
