Rockwell (ROK) Insider Filing: 324 RSUs Vest, 103 Shares Sold Under 10b5-1

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Isaac Woods, Vice President and Treasurer of Rockwell Automation (ROK), reported changes in his beneficial ownership on Form 4. 324 restricted stock units vested on 09/05/2025 and converted into 324 shares of common stock; those shares have a $0 conversion price and are accounted as 650 restricted stock units originally granted with a vesting schedule over three equal annual installments beginning on the date exercisable.

Following vesting, Woods sold shares under a Rule 10b5-1 plan: on 09/08/2025 he sold 102 shares at $345.16 and 1 share at $345.185 to cover taxes, reducing his direct holdings to 1,912 shares. Additionally, he holds 460.9468 shares indirectly through the Company Savings Plan per the plan administrator as of 06/30/2025.

Insights

Securities Compliance Analyst

TL;DR: Officer reported routine vesting and tax-covering sales under a pre-existing 10b5-1 plan; transactions appear procedural rather than strategic.

The Form 4 discloses a standard equity compensation event: 324 restricted stock units vested and converted to shares with no exercise price, and a subsequent sale of 103 shares under a Rule 10b5-1 plan to satisfy tax obligations. The presence of a documented 10b5-1 plan (entered 05/30/2025) reduces insider trading risk and suggests the sales were pre-planned. Holdings also include ~460.9468 shares held indirectly via the Company Savings Plan per administrator data as of 06/30/2025. Overall, these transactions are administrative and not indicative of new, material insider-driven repositioning.

Compensation & Equity Plan Specialist

TL;DR: Vesting schedule and tax-covering disposition are consistent with typical executive equity compensation mechanics.

Restricted stock units vested in equal annual installments beginning on the exercisable date; the filing confirms conversion mechanics (one RSU equals one share) and zero conversion price. The sale of shares to cover taxes is explicitly linked to the RSU vesting. Indirect holdings from the Savings Plan are reported based on plan administrator information, reflecting retirement/savings participation rather than open-market acquisition. These facts point to routine compensation administration rather than compensation policy changes.
