4 terms

Restricted Stock Units financial

"These Restricted Stock Units were granted on April 14, 2025 for a total of 100,000 units."

Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.

American Depositary Shares financial

"One (1) American Depositary Share (ADS) represents five (5) Class A Shares."

American depositary shares (ADSs) are a way for investors in the United States to buy shares of foreign companies without dealing with international markets directly. They represent ownership in a foreign company's stock and are traded on U.S. stock exchanges, making it easier for American investors to buy, sell, and own parts of companies from around the world.

withheld for payment of taxes financial

"Represents American Depositary Shares of trivago N.V. withheld for payment of taxes due"

Expiration Date financial

"RSUs do not have an Expiration Date."

The expiration date is the deadline after which a financial contract, such as an option or a futures agreement, is no longer valid or can be exercised. It matters to investors because it determines the timeframe during which they can take action or benefit from the contract, similar to how a coupon or a food item has a limited period of usefulness. Once the expiration date passes, the contract loses its value or ability to be used.

FAQ

AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.

What insider transaction did TRVG director Wolf Ralph-Bruno Schmuhl report on August 15, 2026?

Schmuhl reported RSU vesting that converted 12,771 ADSs of trivago N.V. (TRVG), plus a related tax withholding. Three RSU grants partially vested and were settled in ADSs, reflecting routine equity compensation rather than an open-market stock purchase or sale.

How many trivago N.V. (TRVG) ADSs were created from RSU vesting in this Form 4?

The RSU vesting generated 12,771 American Depositary Shares (ADSs). These ADSs came from three RSU grants, with 8,333; 1,126; and 3,312 units vesting and converting one-for-one into ADSs at a reported exercise price of $0.00 per share.

How many trivago N.V. (TRVG) ADSs were withheld to pay taxes on the RSU vesting?

A total of 4,044 ADSs of trivago N.V. were withheld to pay taxes related to the RSU vesting. This is reported under transaction code F, with a footnote stating the shares were specifically retained for tax payment purposes, not sold in the market.

What are the sizes and vesting schedules of the RSU grants reported for TRVG?

The filing references RSU grants of 100,000, 13,518, and 39,753 units. Each grant vests in 12 equal installments, with one-twelfth vesting initially and additional one-twelfth portions vesting quarterly on February 15, May 15, August 15, and November 15, subject to continued service.

What is the relationship between trivago N.V. (TRVG) ADSs and Class A shares in this Form 4?

One trivago N.V. American Depositary Share (ADS) represents five Class A shares. The Form 4 explicitly notes this ratio, clarifying how the ADS amounts reported for RSU conversions map to the underlying Class A share count represented by the depositary receipts.

Did the Form 4 for TRVG indicate these transactions were under a Rule 10b5-1 plan?

No, the filing shows the Rule 10b5-1 checkbox as not affirmed. There is no footnote stating that the reported RSU vesting and related ADS withholding occurred under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan, so they appear as standard compensation-related transactions.
