Curtiss-Wright Corp. (CW) insider George P. McDonald reported an ownership change involving the company’s common stock on July 6, 2026, according to a Form 4 filed the same day. The filing describes an acquisition of Curtiss-Wright common shares through the company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or ESPP. Under the plan, McDonald had agreed to payroll deductions before the start of a six-month offering period. Those accumulated payroll deductions were then used to buy shares at the end of the offering period. The purchase price was determined under the ESPP’s formula: a 15% discount to the average selling price of Curtiss-Wright common stock on June 30, 2026, the final day of the offering period. The transaction was reported as exempt under Rule 16b-3(d) and Rule 16b-3(c), provisions commonly used for certain issuer-approved employee benefit plan transactions by insiders. The provided filing text does not disclose the number of shares acquired, the exact per-share purchase price, the transaction code, or McDonald’s beneficial ownership following the transaction. The key action reported is therefore an insider acquisition through Curtiss-Wright’s employee stock purchase program rather than an open-market purchase or sale.
