[Form 4] West Pharmaceutical Services, Inc. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

West Pharmaceutical Services, Inc. (WST) – Form 4 insider filing

On 30 June 2025, director Janet Brutschea Haugen reported an equity-based compensation transaction:

• 58 Phantom Stock Units (deferred share equivalents) were acquired (Code A) at an indicated reference price of $218.80 per unit.
• Following the award, Haugen now holds 114.06 phantom units and 1,318.4 common shares, all in direct ownership.

Phantom units convert to common stock only after the director leaves the board, indicating a long-term alignment of interests rather than an immediate open-market purchase or sale. No common-stock transactions were reported, and the filing does not reference any Rule 10b5-1 trading plan.

Positive

• Director receives additional equity-linked compensation, modestly increasing alignment between board oversight and shareholder returns.

Negative

• None.

Insights

Equity Compensation Analyst

TL;DR: Routine director equity grant; signals alignment but immaterial to valuation.

This Form 4 discloses a standard non-cash award of 58 phantom stock units to Director Janet Haugen. Phantom units have no voting rights and settle only upon board departure, trimming liquidity concerns. The award increases Haugen’s synthetic stake to roughly 114 units—worth about $25k at the reference price—while her direct share ownership remains modest at 1,318 shares (<0.002% of diluted shares outstanding). Because the grant is part of the company’s normal board compensation and involves no market purchase or sale, there is minimal market impact. Still, continued equity accrual supports governance best practices by tying director pay to shareholder value.
