PNC Form 4: 195 phantom units added; 11,536 DSUs disposed
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Andrew T. Feldstein, a Director of PNC Financial Services Group (PNC), reported transactions on 10/01/2025. The filing shows an acquisition of 195 phantom stock units (each the economic equivalent of one share) under PNC plans; those phantom units are settled in cash upon distribution. The filing lists a per-share reference of $198.44 alongside the 195 units and reports 19,963 shares (or share equivalents) beneficially owned following the reported transactions on an indirect basis through a deferred compensation arrangement. The report also shows 6,312 phantom stock units attributable to the Outside Directors Deferred Stock Unit Plan and a 11,536 deferred stock unit (DSU) disposition entry; DSUs represent the right to receive one share at retirement or, in limited cases, cash. All units include dividend-equivalent increases that occurred after the reporting person’s prior Form 4 filing. The Form 4 was signed by an attorney-in-fact on 10/03/2025.
Positive
- 195 phantom stock units acquired under company plans, showing continued director compensation alignment
- 19,963 share-equivalents beneficially owned after the reported transactions, indicating substantial indirect holdings
- Dividend-equivalent accruals were recorded, increasing deferred holdings without immediate cash outlay
Negative
- 11,536 deferred stock units show a disposition entry (D), reducing that specific deferred stock unit balance
- Holdings are largely indirect and settled in cash or at retirement, providing less immediate publicly tradeable equity exposure
Insights
Insider compensation converted to deferred/phantom equity; ownership remains largely indirect.
The filing shows a director receiving 195 phantom stock units and holding 19,963 share-equivalents indirectly, indicating compensation-based, non-cash equity exposure rather than open-market purchases of common stock.
Because the units are settled in cash or deferred until retirement (DSUs), the reported changes reflect remuneration and plan mechanics rather than immediate equity transfers affecting voting control.
Report documents plan-based grants and exempt dividend-equivalent accruals; timely Form 4 amendment filed.
The disclosure explicitly notes phantom units and DSUs acquired as dividend equivalents in transactions exempt from reporting that occurred after the last Form 4, and the form is dated with a signature by an attorney-in-fact on 10/03/2025.
This presentation is consistent with Section 16 reporting of plan grants and deferred compensation activity and contains no unreported open-market trades.
