Key Details

• Transaction date and price: 2026-02-17 — 190 shares at $72.31 each (total $13,739).
• Transaction code: A (award/grant or other acquisition).
• Filing date: Form 4 filed 2026-02-19 (appears timely based on the transaction date).
• Shares owned after transaction: Not disclosed in the provided filing excerpt.
• Footnote F1: These 190 units are dividend equivalent units accrued as dividends on restricted stock units and deferred stock units previously granted under the company’s Long-Term Incentive Plans and Non-Employee Director Deferred Compensation Plan; each dividend equivalent unit equals one share of common stock.

Context

• Dividend equivalent units are a routine compensation/plan payment that mirror dividends on outstanding RSUs or deferred stock units; they are treated as an award rather than a market purchase. Because this is a compensation-related award (about $13.7K), it should be viewed as routine director compensation rather than a direct insider buy/sell signal.
