Jason Wilder received 22,000 shares of Class B restricted stock and an option for 10,000 Class A shares at $61.75 per share on March 13, 2026. These awards represent routine executive equity compensation with specific multi-year vesting and exercise schedules.

How do Jason Wilder’s new restricted stock awards at RUSHA vest?

The 22,000 Class B restricted shares vest in one-third increments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the March 13, 2026 grant date. This structure ties compensation to continued service across a three-year period.

What are the terms of Jason Wilder’s new RUSHA stock options?

Wilder received options on 10,000 Class A shares at a $61.75 exercise price, expiring March 13, 2036. Footnotes state they may be exercised in one-third increments on each anniversary of the grant date beginning on the third anniversary.

Were Jason Wilder’s share dispositions in March 2026 open-market sales?

No, the filing labels three Class B transactions totaling 9,222 shares as tax-withholding dispositions. Shares were withheld at $59.69 per share to satisfy tax obligations tied to prior restricted stock vesting, not discretionary market sales.

How many Rush Enterprises shares does Jason Wilder hold after these Form 4 transactions?

After the reported transactions, Wilder directly holds 92,470 shares of Class B Common Stock and 838.0087 shares of Class A Common Stock. The Class A total includes portions acquired on July 1, 2025 and January 1, 2026 under the employee stock purchase plan.

What prior grants were linked to Jason Wilder’s March 2026 tax-withholding entries?

Footnotes explain the withheld Class B shares relate to vesting from restricted stock grants dated March 15, 2023, March 15, 2024, and March 14, 2025. Those vesting events triggered tax obligations that were satisfied by delivering shares instead of cash.
