BizSense’s new weekly data section “Trading Day” is a rundown of what local publicly traded companies have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This week, it includes the reelection of board members at Altria, stock awards at C&F Bank and the announcement that a vice president at Genworth plans to retire. Publicly traded companies must file certain information with the SEC, including when “insiders” buy or sell stock.
Altria Group (MO)
Shareholders voted last week to reelect certain members of Altria’s board of directors, including Dominion Chairman, President and CEO Thomas Farrell; former Hunton & Williams counsel Robert Huntley; University of Virginia President John Casteen; and director of UVA’s Miller Center of Public Affairs Gerald L. Baliles. Each was paid more than $200,000 in 2009 for their service to the Altria board.
Members of the company’s board of directors were each awarded 7,183 shares of phantom stock as part of Altria’s stock compensation plan for non-employee directors. Phantom stocks convert into cash based on the value of the company’s stock at a certain point. Based on the company’s current stock price, the value of the phantom stock awards for each director is approximately $145,000.
C&F Financial Corp.
The parent of C&F Bank awarded each of its directors 700 shares of restricted stock that convert at no cost to common stock at a later date.
Colfax Corp.
Each of the company’s directors was awarded 4,823 shares of its common stock at no cost. Those shares at yesterday’s market price were worth approximately $56,000.
