TL;DR: Insider sale of 2.07M shares executed for SGX-ST listing liquidity; reporting shows continued large beneficial ownership.

The filing documents a single, sizeable non-derivative disposition of 2,068,966 common shares at $15.21 on 09/18/2025 tied explicitly to AvePoint's secondary listing on SGX-ST. The report affirms compliance with Rule 144 and states no NASDAQ sales occurred. Post-transaction beneficial ownership is reported at 15,220,668 shares across affiliated entities and trusts, though the filer disclaims beneficial ownership except to the extent of pecuniary interest.
