Morgan Securities LLC on 08/14/2025 on the NYSE, with an aggregate market value of $462,080. The filing shows total shares outstanding of 166,188,648, and discloses that the securities were acquired as stock awards on 02/24/2018 (16 shares), 02/22/2017 (5,745 shares) and 02/26/2021 (2,239 shares).

Webster Financial Corporation reported a grant of 5,296 time-based restricted common shares to Jason E. Schugel, the company's Chief Risk Officer. The award was issued at a $0 price and is scheduled to vest on the three‑year anniversary of the grant, meaning ownership depends on continued service through that period. After the grant Mr. Schugel beneficially owns 5,296 shares directly. The Form 4 was filed as a single reporting person submission and executed by an attorney‑in‑fact.
Webster Financial director Frederick John Crawford was granted 1,015 restricted shares of common stock on 08/12/2025. The award is reported as acquired at a price of $0, indicating a restricted stock grant rather than an open-market purchase. The restricted shares vest on the one-year anniversary of the grant and carry a two-year holding period after vesting, effectively restricting transfer for three years from grant. After the grant the reporting person beneficially owns 1,515 shares of Webster Financial (ticker WBS).
