FAQ

What insider transactions did Prudential (PRU) report for CEO Andrew Sullivan?

The filing reports equity compensation activity for CEO Andrew F. Sullivan. Restricted stock units from 2023, 2024, and 2025 awards vested and converted into common stock, and shares were withheld at $98.38 per share to satisfy related tax obligations.

Were Andrew Sullivan’s Form 4 transactions open-market buys or sells of PRU stock?

The transactions were not open-market trades. They reflect the vesting and 1-to-1 conversion of restricted stock units into common stock and related tax-withholding dispositions, where shares were surrendered at $98.38 per share to pay taxes rather than sold for investment purposes.

How many Prudential restricted stock units vested for the CEO on February 28, 2026?

On February 28, 2026, 4,035 restricted stock units from 2023 awards, 3,959 from 2024 awards, and 3,717 from 2025 awards vested. Each unit converted into one share of Prudential Financial common stock as part of the company’s equity compensation program.

What does the tax-withholding disposition in the Prudential CEO Form 4 mean?

Tax-withholding dispositions mean shares were withheld to pay income taxes due on vesting. In this case, blocks of common stock, including 1,954, 1,916, and 1,798 shares, were surrendered at $98.38 per share instead of the CEO paying the taxes in cash.

Does Andrew Sullivan hold Prudential stock indirectly through a retirement plan?

Yes. The Form 4 shows an indirect holding of 456 shares of Prudential common stock “By 401(k).” This indicates a portion of his ownership is held within a 401(k) retirement plan, in addition to his directly held common shares reported in the filing.

How do Prudential’s restricted stock units convert into common stock for the CEO?

The filing states that Prudential restricted stock units convert into common stock on a 1-to-1 basis. These units vest in thirds annually, with specified awards beginning vesting on the last day of February in 2024, 2025, and 2026, then delivering shares accordingly.
