(ULS), reported acquisitions on Form 4 dated 09/08/2025 and filed 09/10/2025.

Insights

TL;DR: Insider accrued dividend-equivalent rights on RSUs, increasing reported beneficial ownership; no sales or cash transactions reported.

The Form 4 discloses non-derivative acquisitions of dividend equivalent rights tied to restricted stock units for the CAO. These were recorded as acquisitions at no cash price, consistent with accrual of dividend equivalents rather than open-market purchases. The positions reported are relatively small single-line holdings (1,456 and 1,300 shares) and vest with the underlying RSUs on scheduled anniversaries, indicating compensation-related vesting mechanics rather than opportunistic trading. Because there are no reported disposals or cash proceeds, the filing represents routine insider compensation vesting activity.

TL;DR: Governance-normal disclosure of accrued dividend equivalents on RSUs; vesting schedule and accrual treatment are explicitly described.

The Form 4 identifies the reporting person as an officer (Senior VP & CAO) and discloses that dividend equivalent rights accrued on two sets of restricted stock units vest proportionately with the underlying awards and were recorded on 09/08/2025. The filing includes clear explanations of vesting timing (three equal installments following specified grant anniversaries) and confirms the acquisitions are non-cash dividend equivalent accruals. This is standard for executive equity compensation and complies with Section 16 reporting requirements; no governance red flags, such as related-party transfers or unexplained exemptions, are evident from the disclosed text.
