Celsius Holdings (CELH) insider settles prepaid variable forward sale
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Celsius Holdings, Inc. (CELH) insider activity centers on the settlement of a prepaid variable forward sale by CD Financial LLC ("CD"), an entity associated with reporting person William H. Milmoe. CD, which is the record holder of the shares and in which the Carl DeSantis Revocable Trust holds a 99% beneficial interest, settled three tranches of a variable prepaid forward sale contract on January 8, 9, and 12, 2026, each covering 120,000 shares of Celsius common stock through full physical settlement.
For each tranche, CD was obligated to deliver 120,000 CELH shares to an unaffiliated buyer after tranche maturity, while the buyer paid CD cash based on a formula using a floor price of $29.0933 and a cap price of $38.7911 per share. Because the settlement prices on January 7, 8, and 9, 2026 were greater than the floor price and less than the cap price, CD delivered CELH shares and received cash amounts determined under that formula. Following the last reported transaction, 13,042,396 CELH shares were beneficially owned indirectly.
