A Form 4 is filed within two business days of a company insider — an officer, a director, or a holder of more than ten percent of the stock — changing their position in the shares. All 4 filings in this group are Form 4s for Himax Technologies, Inc.
The difficulty with reading these filings as a group is that a single form type covers transactions that mean entirely different things. An executive spending their own money to buy stock and an executive having shares withheld to pay tax on a vesting grant both appear as a Form 4. Every filing below is therefore tagged with the nature of the underlying transaction, taken from the transaction code reported on the form itself.
Across the 4 insider filings shown, the breakdown is 2 compensation award and 2 option exercise. None of the classified filings involved a discretionary open-market trade, so this period says nothing about what insiders think of the price.
What each transaction type means
- Compensation award ×2
- Shares were granted as compensation rather than purchased. No cash changed hands, so the filing reflects a pay decision by the company, not a judgement about the price.
- Option exercise ×2
- The insider converted options into shares. The exercise price was fixed when the options were granted, so the timing usually tracks an expiry schedule.
