tax withholding obligations financial

"Represents common shares withheld by the Issuer to satisfy tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of previously granted restricted share units ("RSUs")."

Revocable Trust financial

"Common Shares, indirect ownership, nature of ownership: By Revocable Trust."

A revocable trust is a legal arrangement where the person who creates it keeps control and can change or cancel the trust at any time, while naming who will manage and receive the assets later. Think of it like a flexible folder for your investments and property that can be relabeled or reworked as circumstances change; it matters to investors because it determines how ownership is recorded, how easily assets transfer on incapacity or death, and whether holdings bypass public probate proceedings.

Living Trust financial

"Held by the Scott D. Macdonald Living Trust dated April 21, 2023."

vesting financial

"RSUs scheduled to vest on July 3, 2026; July 1, 2027; and in three equal installments on later dates."

Vesting is the process by which you earn full ownership of something, like company stock or a retirement benefit, over time. It’s like earning the right to keep a gift piece by piece the longer you stay with a company, making sure employees stay committed before they receive all the benefits.

FAQ

What did STRZ CFO Scott D. Macdonald report in this Form 4?

He reported a tax-withholding disposition of 4,223 Starz common shares. These shares were withheld by the company to cover tax obligations on vested RSUs, a routine compensation-related event rather than an open-market sale or purchase.

How many STRZ shares does the CFO hold after the reported transactions?

After the transactions, he holds 61,453 Starz common shares directly and 18,757 shares indirectly via a living trust. These figures reflect his reported equity position following the tax-withholding event described in the Form 4 filing.

Was there an open-market sale or purchase of STRZ shares by the CFO?

No open-market sale or purchase was reported. The 4,223 Starz shares were withheld by the issuer to satisfy tax withholding obligations on vested RSUs, which is classified as a tax-withholding disposition, not a discretionary trade.

What RSU awards for STRZ does the CFO still have outstanding?

Footnotes list unvested RSUs totaling 50,860 units that convert into shares upon vesting. They are scheduled to vest across specific dates from July 2026 through May 2029, supporting a multi-year equity compensation package tied to company stock.

How is the CFO’s indirect ownership in STRZ structured?

His indirect ownership is held through the Scott D. Macdonald Living Trust dated April 21, 2023. The trust holds 18,757 Starz common shares, and these are reported as indirectly owned by the CFO in the Form 4 filing.

Does this STRZ Form 4 indicate a change in the CFO’s confidence?

The filing mainly shows tax withholding and updated holdings, not open-market trading. Tax-withholding dispositions are mechanical events linked to RSU vesting, so they typically do not signal a change in the executive’s view of the company.
