Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Rubrik, Inc. (RBRK) – Form 4 Insider Activity

Chief Financial Officer Kiran Kumar Choudary reported two transactions dated 07/09/2025:

• Option exercise & conversion: 2,000 stock options exercised at a $7.99 strike (Code M) and automatically converted from Class B to Class A shares (Code C) at a reported price of $0.
• Open-market sale: 3,500 Class A shares sold at $87.54 (Code S), generating ≈ $0.31 million in gross proceeds.

Post-transaction, the CFO directly holds 521,595 Class A shares and 70,450 derivative securities. The net reduction of 1,500 shares represents under 0.3 % of his direct equity position, signalling only a marginal change in insider ownership.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: Small sale; ownership largely unchanged—minimal signal.

The CFO’s combination of option exercise and subsequent sale is routine portfolio management. Net disposition of 1,500 shares is immaterial versus a remaining stake exceeding 521k shares. The $87.54 sale price is well above the $7.99 exercise cost, but the proceeds represent a fraction of overall insider holdings. There is no indication of broad strategic intent or financial distress. Market impact is expected to be neutral.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR: Rule 10b5-1 plan mitigates governance concerns.

The sale was executed under a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 plan adopted 01/15/2025, aligning with best-practice governance standards and reducing the risk of information-based trading allegations. Continued sizable ownership aligns management’s incentives with shareholders. No red flags emerge from this filing.
