Medifast (MED) VP Jonathan Barrett Receives 10,830 RSU Award
What Happened
- Jonathan Barrett, Medifast’s Vice President, Finance & Chief Accounting Officer, was granted 10,830 restricted stock units (RSUs) on 2026-03-25 (acquired at $0).
- The filing also shows 1,130 shares disposed across March to satisfy tax withholding: 198 shares @ $9.62 (3/13) = $1,905; 70 shares @ $10.05 (3/17) = $704; 862 shares @ $9.59 (3/25) = $8,267. Those disposals total about $10,876 and represent tax-withheld shares, not open-market sales.
Key Details
- Transaction dates and prices:
- 2026-03-13: 198 shares withheld @ $9.62 (F) — $1,905
- 2026-03-17: 70 shares withheld @ $10.05 (F) — $704
- 2026-03-25: 862 shares withheld @ $9.59 (F) — $8,267
- 2026-03-25: Grant of 10,830 RSUs (A) @ $0.00 — acquisition recorded
- Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the filing.
- Footnotes:
- F1: Withheld shares were retained by the issuer to cover the executive’s tax withholding upon vesting (based on closing price on the vesting date).
- F2: The 10,830 RSUs were granted under the 2012 Share Incentive Plan and vest in three equal annual installments beginning one year after the grant; each RSU converts to one share when vested.
- Filing timeliness: Form 4 was filed on 2026-03-27. Because some transactions occurred on 2026-03-13 and 2026-03-17, those earlier entries were reported more than two business days after the trade date and thus may be late under the standard Form 4 two-business-day rule.
Context
- These entries primarily reflect a grant of RSUs and routine tax-withholding (code F), not an open-market sale (code S) or purchase. RSU grants and the associated withholding are standard compensation mechanics — the grant signals granted future equity but does not itself indicate immediate buying or selling intent.

- [F1]Represents the number of shares withheld by the Issuer upon the vesting of a restricted stock unit grant to cover the executive's withholding tax associated with the satisfaction of all vesting conditions. The number of shares withheld is based upon the closing price of a share of Medifast common stock on the vesting date, or if the vesting date fell on a weekend or market holiday, upon the closing price of a share of Medifast common stock on the most recent prior market day.
- [F2]Represents a grant of restricted stock units issued to the reporting person under the 2012 Share Incentive Plan that will vest in three equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date. Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's common stock.
