PARAA Form 4: 16,340 RSU Grant to Director Charles E. Ryan

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Paramount Global (PARAA) filed a Form 4 disclosing a routine equity grant to director Charles E. Ryan. On 07/02/2025 Mr. Ryan received 16,340 Restricted Share Units (RSUs) under the company’s outside-director equity plan at a grant price of $0.00. The RSUs will vest on the earlier of the 2026 Annual Meeting or 02 July 2026, at which point an equal number of Class B shares will be delivered unless deferred. Following the transaction, Mr. Ryan’s beneficial ownership increased by the same 16,340 shares and remains direct. No shares were sold or transferred, and there are no derivative exercises or cash proceeds involved. The filing does not alter Paramount Global’s capital structure in any material way and represents customary director compensation intended to align board incentives with shareholder interests.

Insights

Equity Compensation Analyst

TL;DR: Routine director RSU grant; neutral impact.

This Form 4 details a standard annual equity award of 16,340 RSUs to outside director Charles E. Ryan. The grant, made at no cost, vests over roughly one year, matching peer governance practices and fostering alignment with shareholders. With Paramount Global’s ~650 million shares outstanding, the dilution effect is immaterial (<0.003%). The filing signals no insider purchase or sale and therefore provides limited insight into management’s market view. Overall, it is an administrative disclosure with negligible financial impact.
