Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Howard W. Lutnick, a director and 10% owner of BGC Group, Inc. (BGC), reported multiple transactions effective 10/06/2025 that materially changed his indirect holdings and voting interests. He closed a sale of the voting shares of CF Group Management, Inc. (the managing general partner of Cantor Fitzgerald, L.P.) for $200,000, after which he no longer beneficially owned the 93,340,477 Class B shares held by CFLP or the 2,972,524 Class B shares held by CFGM. He also sold equity interests in KBCR Management Partners and Tangible Benefits for an aggregate $13,096,795.70, relinquishing 2,335,967 Class B shares and 600,938 Class A shares those entities held. Separately, the company repurchased 337,765 Class A shares originating in retirement accounts at $9.2082 per share. Lutnick sold 8,973,721 Class B shares held directly to CFLP at $9.2082 per share (net of specified dividend adjustments). The filing disclaims beneficial ownership of securities held by the listed entities beyond any pecuniary interest.

Negative

• Material reduction in Lutnick's indirect voting holdings following sale of CFGM voting shares (loss of beneficial ownership of 93,340,477 and 2,972,524 Class B shares)
• Substantial transfers of entity interests (KBCR and Tangible Benefits) that removed 2,335,967 Class B and 600,938 Class A shares from his indirect holdings

Insights

Corporate Governance Analyst

Significant transfer of voting control and indirect holdings away from Lutnick.

The transactions show voting shares of CFGM and equity interests in related entities moved to trusts controlled by Brandon G. Lutnick and to CFLP, and Lutnick disclaims beneficial ownership beyond pecuniary interests. This reduces Lutnick's direct or indirect voting stake tied to CFGM and related partners while retaining limited pecuniary exposure as disclosed.

Key dependencies include the post‑transaction ownership structure of CFLP and related trusts and any remaining pecuniary interests. Watch any future disclosures clarifying voting control and trustee arrangements over the next several reporting periods.

Securities Transactions Specialist

Large block transfers and a company repurchase executed at VWAP‑based pricing.

The report documents sales totaling $13,296,795.70 in aggregate reported sale proceeds ($200,000 for CFGM voting shares and $13,096,795.70 for KBCR/Tangible Benefits interests) plus the repurchase of 337,765 Class A shares at $9.2082 each under the issuer's repurchase authorization. Pricing references a 3‑day VWAP from May 14–16, 2025 adjusted for after‑tax dividend amounts.

Immediate effects include a reduction in Lutnick's directly held Class B and Class A balances and a modest liquidity realization. Monitor subsequent Form 4/Form 5 filings for any residual pecuniary interest disclosures or additional repurchases within the next fiscal quarter.
