SIGA CEO Nguyen Diem Receives RSUs; Withholds Shares for Taxes
What Happened
- Nguyen Diem, CEO of SIGA Technologies (SIGA), had restricted stock units (RSUs) vest and convert into common stock on March 13, 2026. The filing shows 85,045 derivative shares converted (exercise/conversion) and a related withholding of 47,029 shares at $5.26 per share to satisfy tax obligations (withheld value $247,373). The report also records a derivative award entry of 272,243 RSUs (see footnotes).

Context
- RSUs convert to common stock on vesting; the withholding of shares to cover taxes is a common, administrative step and not the same as an open‑market sale. The filing shows a net increase in owned shares for the insider after withholding (conversion minus shares withheld), though exact post‑transaction holdings are not disclosed here.
- These entries reflect equity compensation vesting and tax coverage, not discretionary purchases or market sales by the CEO.
