[Form 4] AudioEye, Inc. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Form 4 Overview – Redfin Corporation (RDFN)

Director David H. Lissy reported the disposal of 163,573 Redfin common shares on 1 July 2025. The transaction was not an open-market sale; the shares were automatically converted in connection with the closing of the previously announced merger between Redfin Corporation and Rocket Companies, Inc.

• Merger mechanics: Neptune Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of Rocket Companies, merged into Redfin. At the effective time, each Redfin share converted into the right to receive 0.7926 shares of Rocket Companies Class A common stock plus cash for any fractional shares.
• Shares affected: 113,573 shares held directly and 50,000 shares held via four revocable trusts (total = 163,573) were converted; Mr. Lissy now holds 0 RDFN shares.
• Ownership structure: The indirect positions were held in revocable trusts for which Mr. Lissy is the settlor; he disclaims beneficial ownership beyond his pecuniary interest.

Because Redfin became a wholly owned subsidiary of Rocket Companies, this filing mainly informs investors of the insider’s final Redfin share disposition and reconfirms the exchange ratio (0.7926) applicable to all Redfin shareholders.

Positive

• Merger consummation confirmed: Filing corroborates that the Redfin-Rocket transaction closed on 1 July 2025, eliminating deal-completion risk.
• Clear exchange ratio disclosed: Investors are reminded of the 0.7926 Rocket share conversion rate, providing certainty on consideration received.

Negative

• None.

Insights

M&A Specialist

TL;DR – Filing confirms merger close; insider receives Rocket stock, no cash sale.

The Form 4 validates that Rocket Companies’ acquisition of Redfin closed on 1 July 2025. All 163,573 shares formerly held by director David Lissy converted into 0.7926 Rocket shares per Redfin share, indicating a straight equity swap with no price renegotiation or additional consideration. There is no insider selling pressure on RDFN because the legal entity no longer trades. The transaction is routine follow-through on the merger agreement dated 9 Mar 2025 and therefore neutral to Rocket’s capital structure and valuation. Impact: administrative, not market-moving.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR – Director’s filing signals end of RDFN equity, aligns insider and parent interests.

From a governance angle, Lissy’s 163,573-share conversion eliminates residual insider ownership in the dissolved public entity and aligns his equity incentives with Rocket Companies going forward. No red flags arise: the disclosure adheres to Section 16 requirements, references attorney-in-fact authority, and includes customary disclaimers. Because the disposal stems from a board-approved merger, shareholders should view it as a procedural disclosure rather than an active trading decision. Overall governance impact is neutral.
