Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Form 4 filing overview (CELH, 14 Jul 2025): 10% owner Dean DeSantis, acting as co-representative of the Estate of Carl DeSantis, reported the physical settlement of three tranches of a prepaid variable forward sale (VPF) originally executed on 1 Aug 2022 by GRAT 1, LLC.

  • Dates settled: 10 Jul 2025, 11 Jul 2025, 14 Jul 2025
  • Shares delivered: 300,000 per tranche, total 900,000 CELH common shares (adjusted for splits)
  • Settlement mechanics: Buyer paid cash based on a formula; because the volume-weighted average price on each maturity date exceeded the Cap Price of $40.1588, GRAT 1 received the maximum per-share cash amount (Cap–Floor spread of $10.0397).
  • Price reference: Cap Price stated as $40.1588; no per-share sale price reported beyond formula disclosure.
  • Post-transaction holdings: Indirect ownership via GRAT 1 fell from 6.0 million to 5.4 million shares.
  • Ownership status: Shares are held indirectly; reporting person maintains shared voting and dispositive power.

The filing documents a planned, derivative-linked disposition by a large insider rather than an open-market sale, but it nonetheless reduces insider exposure by 15%. No new derivative positions were opened; the VPF obligations are now fully settled for these tranches.

Positive
  • None.
Negative
  • None.

Insights

TL;DR – 900k CELH shares delivered under VPF, trimming insider stake to 5.4 M; planned but still a sizeable liquidation.

The estate-controlled GRAT settled three prepaid variable forward tranches, transferring 900,000 shares at the Cap Price threshold. Although the sales were contractually predetermined, they represent a meaningful 15% reduction in the insider’s indirect position. Because the deliveries satisfied existing derivative obligations, the transaction is unlikely to signal a change in the company’s fundamentals, yet it adds 900 k shares of potential float and may weigh on sentiment regarding future insider supply. Net impact is modestly negative given the scale and the insider’s status as a 10% holder.

Explanation of Responses:
1. The Reporting Person is one of the two personal representatives of the Estate of Carl DeSantis, which holds a one hundred percent (100%) beneficial ownership interest in GRAT 1, LLC ("GRAT 1"). Accordingly, the Reporting Person has shared voting and dispositive control over the shares held by GRAT 1, LLC..
2. On July 10, 2025, July 11, 2025, and July 14, 2025 GRAT 1 settled three tranches of a prepaid variable forward sale transaction (the "VPF") entered into on August 1, 2022 with an unaffiliated third-party buyer. For these three tranches of the VPF, GRAT 1 elected full physical settlement.
3. In full physical settlement of each of these three tranches of the VPF, the contract for the VPF obligated (i) GRAT 1 to deliver to the buyer 300,000 shares (adjusted for stock splits) of CELH common stock T+1 (the "Share Number") following the maturity of these tranches (occurring on July 9, 2025, July 10, 2025, and July 11, 2025), and (ii) the buyer to pay GRAT 1 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 $30.1191 (the "Floor Price"), but less than or equal to $40.1588 (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) $10.0397.
4. On each of July 9, 2025, July 10, 2025, and July 11, 2025, the Settlement Price was greater than the Cap Price. Accordingly, GRAT 1 transferred to the buyer a number of CELH shares and the buyer paid GRAT 1 amounts in cash determined pursuant to the formula above.
