Walsh Ian K. 4

What Happened

• Ian K. Walsh, a director of Helios Technologies, was granted 608 restricted stock units (RSUs) on 2026-03-19. The Form 4 reports the award as an acquisition (code A) at $0.00 per unit (typical for RSU grants). These RSUs are derivative awards that convert to one share of common stock each upon vesting.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-03-19; Form 4 filed: 2026-03-23.
• Transaction type/code: Grant / Award (A); 608 RSUs granted at $0.00 acquisition price.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the excerpt of the filing.
• Footnote: Each RSU represents the right to receive one share upon vesting; RSUs have no expiration (per filing footnote).
• Filing timing: The grant occurred on 3/19 and the Form 4 was filed on 3/23. Form 4s are generally required within two business days of the transaction; this filing was reported four days later — investors may want to note the timing.

Context

• RSU grants are compensation, not cash purchases; they do not require an immediate cash outlay and are different from open-market buys (which some investors view as a stronger bullish signal). The award will only convert to shares if and when the RSUs vest according to the company's vesting terms.
