NetScout CEO Singhal's RSU Vesting and Tax Withholding Details

According to the Form 4 filed with the SEC on October 27, 2026, Anil K. Singhal, President and CEO of NetScout Systems Inc., reported two transactions in the company's Common Stock on October 26, 2026. The first was the acquisition of 13,500 shares through the vesting of restricted stock units previously granted to him (transaction code M). The filing states that the price for this acquisition is not applicable, as the shares were received upon vesting rather than purchased.

The second transaction involved the disposition of 6,485 shares (transaction code F) at a price of $39.67 per share. The filing discloses that these shares were withheld to satisfy Singhal's tax withholding obligation in connection with the RSU vesting, and that $39.67 represents the closing price of the company's Common Stock on October 23, 2026.

Following both transactions, Singhal directly held 462,049 shares of Common Stock. The filing also discloses that 1,443,960 shares are held indirectly through various trusts for the benefit of Singhal and his spouse. In Table II, the filing reports that 108,000 restricted stock units remain beneficially owned by Singhal on a direct basis following the reported vesting. The form was signed by Jeff Levinson by Power of Attorney on October 27, 2026.
