Brandman Jared 4

What Happened

• Jared Brandman, Chief Legal & Strategy Officer of National Vision (EYE), had 3,540 restricted stock units (RSUs) convert into common shares on Feb 27, 2026. The gross value of the vested shares was about $95,474 (3,540 × $26.97 per share). To cover tax withholding, 1,205 shares were retained at $26.97 each for $32,499, leaving Brandman with 2,335 net shares worth roughly $62,975.
• This was a routine RSU vesting event (conversion of a derivative award), not an open-market purchase or a voluntary sale.

Context

• This was a vesting/settlement of RSUs (not a cash purchase or sale). The withholding of shares to pay taxes is a common administrative step and does not necessarily indicate bullish or bearish intent.
• Because the shares were issued upon vesting (not sold in the open market), the trade provides limited information about the insider’s view of the stock price.
