GRAVES JEFFREY A 4

What Happened
Jeffrey A. Graves, President, CEO and a director of 3D Systems (DDD), was awarded two equity grants on March 20, 2026: 250,000 restricted shares (RSUs) and 250,000 performance share units (PSUs). Both items were reported at $0.00 per share (awards/compensation), so no cash changed hands in the grants.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-03-20; Filing date: 2026-03-24 (filed after the transaction date; appears outside the typical 2-business-day Form 4 window).
• Grant amounts and price: 250,000 restricted stock units @ $0.00; 250,000 performance share units (derivative) @ $0.00.
• Shares owned after transaction: not disclosed in the Form 4 filing.
• Footnote summaries:
  • F1 (RSUs): 250,000 restricted shares vest in three equal installments — one-third on April 1, 2027, one-third on April 1, 2028, and the remainder on April 1, 2029 — subject to continued employment.
  • F2 (PSUs): Each performance share unit is a contingent right to one share and vests only if the company's stock reaches a specified price per share (performance condition); details of the target price were not disclosed in the Form 4.
• Transaction type: Award/Grant (code A); PSUs are reported as a derivative (contingent) award.

Context
These awards are compensation grants rather than open-market purchases or sales. RSUs typically align executive incentives with long-term retention via time-based vesting; PSUs add performance conditions tied to stock price. Such grants are common for executives and are not, by themselves, a definitive signal of management buying or selling.
