Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Gibraltar Industries VP and Treasurer Jeffrey J. Watorek reported a tax-related share disposition. On March 1, 2026, 278 shares of Gibraltar Industries common stock were disposed of at $45.48 per share to satisfy tax obligations through a tax-withholding transaction, not an open-market sale.

After this transaction, Watorek directly owned 18,348 shares of common stock. He also had 1,406.970 matching restricted stock units under the 2018 Management Stock Purchase Plan and 333.905 shares of common stock held indirectly through a 401(k) account.

The footnotes explain that these matching restricted stock units are tied to deferred base salary and incentive compensation and may be forfeited if his service as an officer ends before the fifth anniversary of his vesting commencement date. If service continues beyond that point, the units are settled solely in cash based on the fair market value of the company’s stock at the time his service terminates.
