Rhea-AI Filing Summary

FiscalNote Holdings, Inc. (NOTE) – Form 4 filing for Chief Accounting Officer Paul Donnell

No derivative securities were reported. The filing does not affect company fundamentals and is unlikely to be market-moving.

Negative

Insights

TL;DR: Routine tax-withholding; neutral impact.

The Form 4 shows Chief Accounting Officer Paul Donnell surrendered 9,932 shares to FiscalNote to satisfy payroll taxes upon RSU vesting. Code F confirms the shares never reached the open market, so supply dynamics are unchanged. After the transactions, Donnell still owns 406 k shares, signalling continued alignment with shareholders. Because the volume is small relative to both personal holdings and the company’s float, and no price-sensitive information is revealed, I view the filing as administratively necessary and not financially material.
