[Form 4] Church & Dwight Co., Inc. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Royce & Associates LP ("RALP") filed Amendment 14 to Schedule 13G disclosing its current position in FARO Technologies, Inc. as of 30 Jun 2025. The investment adviser now beneficially owns 289 common shares, representing approximately 0 % of the outstanding class. RALP reports sole voting and dispositive power over the shares and no shared power with others. Item 5 confirms ownership of "5 percent or less" of FARO’s equity, triggering the need for this filing. All shares are held in the ordinary course for discretionary client accounts; the certification states there is no intent to influence control of the issuer. No transaction dates, prices, or future plans are provided. In practical terms, the filing indicates that a previously reportable institutional position has been reduced to a de-minimis level, carrying limited immediate market impact.

Positive

• None.

Negative

• Institutional ownership now negligible: Royce & Associates reports only 289 shares (0 %), indicating minimal support from this formerly reportable holder.

Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR – Royce’s FARO stake is now immaterial; market impact negligible.

The amendment shows Royce & Associates holds only 289 FARO shares (≈0 %). Because the position is far below the 5 % threshold, the filing is largely administrative. No change in control efforts, financing events, or strategic intentions is signalled. From a valuation perspective, the withdrawal of an institutional holder of this size is unlikely to affect liquidity or price discovery. The disclosure merely cleans up the register and confirms diminished institutional sponsorship.

Corporate Governance Specialist

TL;DR – Filing confirms no group activity or control intent.

RALP certifies that its remaining FARO shares are held passively, with sole voting/dispositive power and no coordination with other parties. Items 7-9 state no parent-subsidiary or group arrangements apply. Therefore, governance risk from activist collaboration is minimal. The negligible stake also means RALP’s voting influence at future shareholder meetings is effectively nonexistent.
