Explanation of Responses:

1. The Company granted performance share units ("PSUs") to the reporting person on January 18, 2023. Vesting of the PSUs was based on three-year Company performance relative to select key competitors. Most of these competitors had not reported their 2025 audited financial results when the Company's compensation committee met in January 2026 to certify performance under the PSUs. As a result, the Company's compensation committee approved the issuance of 80% of the shares that the committee determined had been earned according to the information available to the committee at the time. As of March 13, 2026, all such competitors had reported their 2025 audited financial results. Shares of common stock reported hereunder represent shares finally determined to have been earned under the PSUs.

FAQ

What insider transactions did SLB (SLB) executive Abdellah Merad report?

Abdellah Merad reported equity compensation activity, not open-market trading. He received 3,504 SLB common shares as a grant and had 1,379 shares withheld at $44.22 each for tax obligations, ending with 142,727 directly held shares after the transactions.

Were Abdellah Merad’s SLB (SLB) transactions open-market buys or sells?

The transactions were compensation-related, not open-market trades. Merad acquired 3,504 shares through a grant (code A) and disposed of 1,379 shares under code F, which reflects shares withheld to pay taxes instead of a discretionary market sale.

How are SLB (SLB) performance share units linked to Abdellah Merad’s new shares?

The reported shares come from performance share units granted on January 18, 2023. Vesting depended on three-year company performance versus key competitors. Once competitors’ audited 2025 results were available, SLB’s compensation committee finalized the earned amount and issued these common shares.

How many SLB (SLB) shares does Abdellah Merad hold after these transactions?

After the March 13, 2026 transactions, Abdellah Merad directly holds 142,727 SLB common shares. This total reflects the impact of the 3,504-share grant and the 1,379 shares withheld to cover tax liabilities associated with the vested performance share units.

What does transaction code F mean in Abdellah Merad’s SLB (SLB) Form 4?

Code F indicates shares used to pay taxes or exercise costs, not a market sale. In this case, 1,379 SLB shares were disposed of at $44.22 each to satisfy tax liabilities on the equity award, rather than being sold at the insider’s discretion.
