What SEC filings does Oil-Dri Corporation of America submit to the SEC?

Oil-Dri Corporation of America (ODC) submits several types of SEC filings including Form 4 (insider transactions), Form 144 (proposed insider sales), 8-K reports (material events such as earnings releases, acquisitions, leadership changes), and periodic reports — the 10-Q (quarterly) and 10-K (annual). All filings are publicly available through SEC EDGAR.

What does a Form 4 filing tell me about ODC?

A Form 4 for ODC discloses a transaction by a company insider — typically a director, officer, or 10%+ shareholder. It shows the source-reported date, number of shares, price, and updated ownership. These facts do not establish motive or predict future returns.

How do I interpret an 8-K filing from Oil-Dri Corporation of America?

An 8-K signals a material event requiring prompt disclosure. Common triggers include earnings pre-announcements, acquisitions, leadership appointments or departures, credit changes, or regulatory actions. Read the item codes inside the filing to understand exactly what was disclosed before drawing conclusions.

What is the difference between a 10-K and 10-Q for ODC?

The 10-K is Oil-Dri Corporation of America's annual report with fully audited financial statements, comprehensive MD&A, and complete risk factor disclosures — filed 60–90 days after fiscal year-end. The 10-Q is a lighter quarterly report with unaudited financials filed for the first three quarters. Together they provide a continuous financial picture of the company.

Where can I see all ODC SEC filings directly on EDGAR?

You can view all historical Oil-Dri Corporation of America filings on the SEC EDGAR company page for ODC. Each filing card on this page links directly to the original SEC document.

How often does Oil-Dri Corporation of America file with the SEC?

Oil-Dri Corporation of America files one 10-K per year and up to three 10-Qs per year. Form 4 insider transactions must be reported within two business days of each trade, so the frequency depends on how often insiders are buying or selling ODC shares. 8-K filings occur whenever a material event happens — which can be several times per quarter for an active company.

Form 144 Notices

Proposed insider sales filed — Form 144 is a notice of intent, not a confirmed transaction. Actual sales are confirmed via Form 4.

Insider Transactions 7 · Forms 3, 4 and 5

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 7 filings in this group are Form 4s for Oil-Dri Corporation of America.

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 7 insider filings shown, the breakdown is 4 open-market sale, 2 tax withholding and 1 derivative conversion. 4 of them involved a discretionary open-market trade; the rest are compensation and administrative mechanics.

What each transaction type means

Open-market sale ×4: The insider sold shares on the open market. Sales may be discretionary or executed automatically under a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, and a Form 4 does not always make clear which applies.
Tax withholding ×2: Shares were withheld by the company to settle tax due when equity vested. This is an automatic administrative step and not a decision to sell.
Derivative conversion ×1: A derivative security was converted into common stock under terms agreed earlier.

Proposed Insider Sales 4 · Form 144

A Form 144 is a notice of intent to sell restricted or control securities. It is not a record that anything was sold. Oil-Dri Corporation of America has 4 such notices in this period.

The distinction matters because a Form 144 is frequently reported as though it were a completed insider sale. The filer may sell all of the shares covered, some of them, or none at all, and there is no obligation to update the notice either way. A sale that is actually executed by an officer or director shows up separately on a Form 4, which is the filing to check before treating a proposed sale as a real one.
