[144] CRA International, Inc. SEC Filing

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

CRA International, Inc. (CRAI) filed a Form 144 indicating that Paul A. Maleh plans to sell up to 5,200 common shares through broker Robert W. Baird on or about 08 Aug 2025. The shares were acquired via RSU and PRSU vesting between 03 Mar 2025 and 22 Mar 2025. The proposed sale represents roughly 0.08 % of the 6,583,794 shares outstanding and has an aggregate market value of $973,222.64.

The filing also discloses that Maleh previously sold 7,500 shares on 20 May 2025 for gross proceeds of $1,429,655.25. No adverse, non-public information is asserted, and the filer affirms compliance with Rule 10b5-1. While the transaction size is modest relative to total shares, investors often track insider selling for sentiment signals.

Positive

• Transparent disclosure via timely Form 144 filing complies with Rule 144 and 10b5-1 requirements.

Negative

• Insider intends to sell 5,200 shares, following a 7,500-share sale in May, which could be viewed as a bearish sentiment signal.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: CEO plans small-scale insider sale; limited direct financial impact but may influence sentiment.

The 5,200-share notice equates to under 0.1 % of CRAI’s float and <≈1 day’s average volume, suggesting minimal liquidity pressure. Insider sales following equity vesting are routine, yet Maleh’s cumulative 12,700 shares sold/registered since May could be interpreted by some investors as profit-taking near recent highs. No earnings or guidance data are affected, and the sale is covered by Rule 144 and likely a 10b5-1 plan, mitigating governance concerns. Overall impact: modest and primarily psychological.
