[Form 4] Valaris Limited Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Valaris Ltd. (VAL) – Form 4 insider filing: Controller Melissa Barron reported an F-code transaction on 07/03/2025. Code F indicates shares were withheld solely to cover tax obligations arising from the vesting of equity awards, not an open-market sale or purchase. The company withheld 253 common shares at an imputed price of $45.44. Following the withholding, Barron now owns 10,287 VAL common shares directly. No derivative securities were involved, and there were no additional acquisitions or dispositions reported. The filing is routine and does not signal a directional view on Valaris’ prospects.

Insights

Senior Securities Analyst

TL;DR: Routine tax-withholding; negligible impact on VAL.

The Form 4 reflects an administrative Code F tax-withholding event tied to equity award vesting. Only 253 shares—or roughly US$11.5 k—were withheld, leaving the officer with 10,287 shares. Such small, automatic dispositions are customary and non-indicative of management sentiment or company fundamentals. For investors, the filing is non-material and should not influence valuation or trading decisions.
