FAQ

What did XOS CEO Dakota Semler report in this Form 4 transaction?

Dakota Semler reported that 14,538 shares of XOS common stock were withheld by the company at $2.70 per share to satisfy tax withholding obligations related to vesting RSU awards.

Is the XOS (XOS) Form 4 transaction a market sale of shares?

No. The Form 4 shows a code F transaction, where 14,538 shares were withheld to cover tax withholding obligations from RSU vesting, rather than a discretionary open-market sale.

How many XOS shares does Dakota Semler hold after this Form 4 event?

After the tax-withholding disposition, Dakota Semler directly holds 803,447 shares of XOS common stock, which the footnotes state include 417,067 unvested RSUs that may settle into shares in the future.

What does the 14,538-share code F transaction mean for XOS (XOS) investors?

The 14,538-share code F entry represents shares withheld for taxes on RSU vesting at a reference price of $2.70, and not a traditional buy or sell order, so it primarily reflects compensation and tax mechanics.

Was the XOS CEO’s Form 4 trade under a Rule 10b5-1 plan?

The filing’s Rule 10b5-1 checkbox is not marked as affirmative, and the footnotes do not reference a trading plan, so this tax-withholding transaction is not identified as made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan.
