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.

Insights

Large 10% holder settles variable prepaid forward via entity CD.

The disclosure shows CD Financial LLC, an entity managed by William H. Milmoe and largely owned via the Carl DeSantis Revocable Trust, settling three tranches of a prepaid variable forward sale contract tied to Celsius Holdings, Inc. (CELH) common stock. Each tranche involved an obligation to deliver 120,000 shares in exchange for a cash amount determined by a specified pricing formula.

The contract economics hinge on a floor price of $29.0933 and a cap price of $38.7911 per share. For all three tranche maturities on January 7, 8, and 9, 2026, the settlement prices were between these levels, so CD delivered shares and received cash based on the difference between the settlement price and the floor price. After the final settlement reported on January 12, 2026, indirect beneficial ownership stood at 13,042,396 CELH shares.

This is a structured derivative-related share delivery by a significant holder rather than an open-market discretionary trade. The economic impact depends on the pre-existing variable forward agreement entered on January 19, 2023; the filing describes the mechanics but does not change the company’s operations or capital structure beyond reflecting share transfers dictated by that contract.

Explanation of Responses:
1. The Reporting Person is the manager of CD Financial LLC ("CD") and a trustee of the Carl DeSantis Revocable Trust, which owns a 99% beneficial interest in CD. CD is the record holder of the shares which are the subject of this report. The Reporting Person has shared voting and dispositive power with respect to such shares.
2. On January 8, 2026, January 9, 2026, and January 12, 2026, CD settled three tranches of a prepaid variable forward sale transaction (the "VPF") entered into on January 19, 2023 with an unaffiliated third-party buyer. For these three tranches of the VPF, CD elected full physical settlement.
3. In full physical settlement of each of these three tranches, the contract for the VPF obligated (i) CD to deliver to the buyer 120,000 shares (adjusted for stock splits) of CELH common stock T+1 (the "Share Number") following the maturity of these tranches (occurring on January 7, 2026, January 8, 2026, and January 9, 2026), and (ii) the buyer to pay CD an amount in cash equal to: (a) if the volume-weighted average price of CELH common stock on the maturity date for the tranche (each, a "Settlement Price") was greater than $29.0933 (the "Floor Price"), but less than or equal to $38.7911 (the "Cap Price"), the product of (x) the Share Number and (y) the excess of Settlement Price over the Floor Price; and (b) if Settlement Price was greater than the Cap Price, the product of (x) the Share Number and (y) $9.6978.
4. On each of January 7, 2026, January 8, 2026, and January 9, 2026, the Settlement Price was greater than the Floor Price and less 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.
