AI Insider Summary

Nine separate transactions land on a single date — February 27, 2026 — in Joseph J. Russo's Verizon Form 4 record: three option exercises of 13,657, 16,051 and 19,003 shares, each logged twice, covering 48,711 shares combined, paired with three tax withholdings totaling 24,543 shares, all priced at $50.14. It's the densest single day anywhere in this filing history, and the withholding alone represents roughly $1.23 million in shares given up to cover taxes on the exercised options. That cluster sits inside a broader pattern: recurring small stock grants land roughly every two weeks (22 to 26 shares in the months around it), a large 44,544-share grant arrived on April 1, 2026, and a real open-market sale of 9,579 shares at $44.88 preceded an 84,926-share grant by just two days in early February. Across 135 total transactions since March 2023, Russo has sold 96,241 shares at Verizon and bought none — a mix of routine small grants, periodic option exercises with associated tax withholding, and at least one real market sale, all concentrated in a single company relationship.

That cluster sits inside a much larger, more routine pattern. Small stock grants land roughly every two weeks — 22 to 26 shares per cycle in the months surrounding the February event, a rhythm that continued through July 2026 without interruption. A much larger grant, 44,544 shares, arrived separately on April 1, 2026, a single-day outlier similar in scale to the February 27 cluster but unaccompanied by any exercise or withholding.

Two other transactions stand out for being genuine market activity rather than compensation mechanics. On February 2, 2026, Russo sold 9,579 shares at $44.88 — a real open-market sale worth roughly $430,000. Two days later, on February 4, an 84,926-share grant arrived, the single largest acquisition anywhere in this record.
