Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Celsius Holdings, Inc. (CELH) reported insider activity by a major shareholder and director through a Form 4. The reporting person is a trustee of the Carl DeSantis Revocable Trust, which holds a 99% beneficial interest in CD Financial, LLC, the record owner of the shares. On November 21, 24 and 25, 2025, CD settled three tranches of a prepaid variable forward sale transaction originally entered on November 3, 2022 with an unaffiliated buyer.

For each tranche, CD elected full physical settlement and delivered 187,500 shares of CELH common stock under a variable prepaid forward sale contract. The contract formula tied cash paid to CD to the volume-weighted average price of CELH on each maturity date, with a floor price of $27.7675 and a cap price of $37.0234. The filing states that on each maturity date the settlement price exceeded the cap price, so the buyer’s cash payment was calculated using the cap spread of $9.2559 per share. Following these transactions, CD continued to hold a substantial indirect position in CELH shares.

On each of November 20, 2025, November 21, 2025, and November 24, 2025, the Settlement Price was greater than the Cap Price. Accordingly, CD transferred to the buyer a number of CELH shares and the buyer paid CD amounts in cash determined pursuant to the formula above.
