[Form 4] Argan, Inc Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Nelnet, Inc. (NNI) Form 4 – insider re-registration of shares

On 07/28/2025 director and >10% owner Angela L. Muhleisen reported a series of zero-price, non-market transactions involving Class A common stock. The principal item (transaction code “W”) moved 1,230,680 shares from the estate of the late Dan D. Muhleisen to Ms. Muhleisen’s direct ownership, increasing her direct stake to 2,202,879 shares.

Multiple “G” coded entries reflect the scheduled termination of several 2020 and 2022 Grantor Retained Annuity Trusts (GRATs). Blocks of 9,346 – 19,591 shares were distributed to two post-annuity trusts—one for the couple’s adult daughter and one for their adult son—while corresponding amounts were removed from the GRATs. Additional indirect positions remain in eight active GRATs (26,810 – 44,825 shares each) and two 2012 Dynasty Trusts (276,000 shares each), plus two 2020 Dynasty Trusts (10,000 shares each).

No open-market purchases or sales occurred; all movements are internal estate-planning transfers that do not change the filer’s overall economic exposure to NNI. The filing therefore carries limited immediate market significance but clarifies the registration and custodial location of a substantial insider holding.

Insights

Corporate Governance Analyst

TL;DR – Estate-planning transfers; no cash, no valuation change, neutral impact.

The transactions merely shift record ownership among the Muhleisen estate, GRATs and dynasty trusts. Because every line item is filed at $0.00 and uses codes “W” (will/estate) or “G” (gift), there is no indication of discretionary buying or selling. Ms. Muhleisen’s direct stake rises, yet her aggregate beneficial ownership remains effectively unchanged. From a governance standpoint the disclosure is positive for transparency, but market impact is negligible; liquidity, float and control percentages are not materially affected. Rating 0 (neutral).
