Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Restaurant Brands International (QSR) Chief Executive Officer Joshua Kobza reported a large non-derivative disposition of 966,501.5173 common shares on 10/07/2025, leaving the indicated post-transaction holdings shown in the filing. The Form 4 also records multiple equity awards and exercises: options exercisable at $56.92 (200,000 shares), exchangeable units (5,413 shares), and several grants of restricted share units and performance-based share units that were acquired or recorded as dividend equivalents on 10/07/2025. Several performance awards vest on 03/15/2027, 05/21/2028, and 03/15/2028, and some restricted share units have remaining vesting dates in 2025–2028. The filing is signed by an attorney-in-fact on 10/09/2025.

Positive

• Continued equity compensation via restricted share units and performance share units with multi-year vesting supports long-term alignment
• Performance-based awards present upside contingent on meeting stated performance conditions (vesting tied to performance periods ending 2027 and 2028)
• Dividend equivalent rights recorded on restricted and performance awards indicate accrual of shareholder-like payments on awards

Negative

• Large non-derivative disposition of 966,501.5173 common shares on 10/07/2025, which reduces the reporting person’s direct holdings
• Substantial share movement on a single day could be interpreted as a material liquidity event for the reporting person

Insights

Corporate Governance Analyst

TL;DR: CEO reported a large share disposal alongside multiple equity award events on 10/07/2025.

The filing shows a significant non-derivative disposition of 966,501.5173 common shares, which materially changes the reported share count held by the reporting person. Concurrently, the report records multiple equity-related events including an option position of 200,000 shares exercisable at $56.92, exchangeable units of 5,413, and numerous restricted share units and performance-based share units with vesting schedules into 2025–2028

These items reflect both realized liquidity (the large disposition) and continuing executive compensation exposure through multi-year vested and performance-linked awards; monitor vesting dates such as 03/15/2027 and 05/21/2028 for future share settlement events.

Equity Compensation Specialist

TL;DR: Multiple grant types and dividend equivalents were recorded, showing ongoing compensation structuring.

The Form 4 records acquisitions of restricted share units and performance share units and notes that dividend equivalent rights accrued and vest proportionately with the underlying awards. Several performance awards specify performance periods and vesting on 05/21/2028 and 03/15/2028, while some restricted units vest in equal annual installments with remaining vesting into 2025–2028.

These mechanics mean future common-share settlement depends on vesting and achievement of stated performance conditions; watch the stated performance end dates and vesting milestones through 2028 for potential share issuance.
