Insights

Filing shows routine tax withholding, not an open-market sale.

The Form 4 for Paylocity Holding Corp reports that Senior Vice President of Sales Joshua Scutt had 1,560 shares of common stock applied to a tax-withholding obligation at $103.93 per share, using transaction code F.

Code F indicates shares were surrendered to cover taxes on equity compensation, so this is not a discretionary market sale and carries limited signaling value about his view of the stock. After this entry, he directly owns 43,354 shares and has an additional 118 shares held indirectly through his father-in-law’s account, where his spouse has investment power.

Because the tax-withholding amount is small relative to his reported direct holdings and the filing shows no open‑market buying or selling, this update is best viewed as a routine administrative adjustment related to compensation rather than a change in investment stance.

"showing 1,560 shares used for a tax-withholding disposition at $103.93 per share"
A tax-withholding disposition is an event or transaction—such as selling or transferring securities, exercising options, or receiving compensation—that triggers a requirement to hold back part of the payment and remit it to tax authorities. It matters to investors because it reduces the cash they receive immediately and can change the timing and amount of taxable income, like a cashier taking a portion of your sale proceeds to pay taxes before you get the rest.

"his spouse was granted a power of attorney that provides for investment power over the shares"
A power of attorney is a legal document that allows one person to make decisions and act on behalf of another person, often in financial or legal matters. It’s like giving someone a trusted helper or agent the authority to handle important tasks if you are unable to do so yourself. This matters to investors because it can impact how their assets are managed or transferred if they become unable to oversee their affairs.
