restricted stock units financial
"Reflects an award of restricted stock units pursuant to the Xylem 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan"
Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.
Xylem 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan financial
"Reflects an award of restricted stock units pursuant to the Xylem 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan (Amended and Restated February 24, 2016)"
dividend reinvestment financial
"Includes additional shares due to dividend reinvestment."
Dividend reinvestment is when the money earned from a company's profit sharing, called dividends, is automatically used to buy more shares of that company instead of being received as cash. This process helps investors grow their holdings over time without extra effort, much like using earned interest to buy more of a savings account. It encourages long-term investment growth by continuously increasing the amount of shares owned.
Separation from Service financial
"The Reporting Person has elected to defer the settlement of the RSU Award until Separation from Service."

FAQ

What insider transaction did Xylem (XYL) report for Robert F. Friel?

Xylem reported that director Robert F. Friel received an equity award of 2,481 restricted stock units of common stock. The award is compensation under the company’s incentive plan, not an open-market purchase, and increases his direct holdings to 38,706 shares after the grant.

How many Xylem (XYL) shares were granted in the latest RSU award?

The filing shows a grant of 2,481 restricted stock units tied to Xylem common stock at a reference value of $116.88 per share. These units will convert into shares upon settlement, adding to the director’s existing holdings once they are ultimately delivered.

When do Robert F. Friel’s new Xylem (XYL) RSUs vest?

The restricted stock units are scheduled to vest in full on the trading day immediately before Xylem’s 2027 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Vesting marks when the award becomes earned, although the actual share delivery is deferred until the director’s Separation from Service.

What are Robert F. Friel’s Xylem (XYL) share holdings after this grant?

Following the award, the filing states that Robert F. Friel directly holds 38,706 Xylem common shares. This figure includes additional shares attributed through dividend reinvestment, reflecting both prior holdings and the impact of the new restricted stock unit grant.

What does deferring settlement of Xylem (XYL) RSUs until Separation from Service mean?

Deferring settlement means the director will not receive the underlying Xylem shares at vesting, but instead upon his Separation from Service. The RSUs still vest on the set date, yet actual share delivery and any related taxable event are postponed until his departure.
