PG&E (PCG) CFO Carolyn Burke Receives Award, Sells Shares for Taxes
What Happened
Carolyn Jeanne Burke, EVP and Chief Financial Officer of PG&E Corporation (PCG), had 144,806 performance shares vest on 2026-03-16 under the company's LTIP.

This was a vesting of performance-based restricted stock units, with a portion forfeited to the company to cover withholding tax (a common "sell-to-cover" mechanism). The forfeiture is not an open-market sale and generally reflects tax obligations rather than a directional bet by the insider.
