FAQ

What insider transactions did WMB executive Terrance Lane Wilson report on this Form 4?

Terrance Lane Wilson reported equity awards rather than open-market trades. He received 13,096 restricted stock units and 13,856 shares of Williams Companies common stock as grants on February 19, 2026, reflecting executive compensation rather than discretionary buying or selling.

How many restricted stock units were granted to the WMB SVP & General Counsel?

He received 13,096 restricted stock units as part of his compensation. Some units are time-based and convert into common stock one-for-one, while others are performance-based and vest depending on three-year financial metrics certified by the Compensation and Management Development Committee.

What are the terms of the performance-based RSUs reported by WMB?

The performance-based restricted stock units vest only if specified three-year financial performance measures are met. After the committee certifies results, the payout can range from 0 percent to 200 percent of the originally awarded units, so executives may receive none, some, or double the initial grant.

Did the WMB executive buy or sell common stock on the open market in this Form 4?

No open-market purchases or sales were reported. The Form 4 shows acquisitions coded as awards, meaning the 13,856 common shares and 13,096 restricted stock units were granted as compensation, not bought or sold through regular trading transactions.

How many Williams (WMB) shares does Terrance Lane Wilson hold indirectly through a trust?

He is reported as indirectly owning 3,100 shares of Williams Companies common stock through a trust. This indirect position is separate from his directly held shares and reflects shares attributed to him via the trust’s holdings rather than direct personal ownership.
