[SCHEDULE 13D/A] Carvana Co. SEC Filing

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Form 4/A highlights insider equity changes at The OLB Group, Inc. (OLB):

• Chairman, CEO and 10% owner Ronny Yakov acquired 4,685,029 common shares on 06-02-25 (Code J) directly from the company’s treasury at a deemed fair-value price of $1.31 per share. Shares were issued in lieu of cash to satisfy outstanding liabilities, debt financing, accrued interest and bonuses.
• On 06-30-25 he gifted 878,074 shares (Code G) for no consideration.
• Earlier, on 05-28-25, Yakov returned 1,021 Series A Preferred shares for cancellation (Code D). Each preferred share was convertible into 111.11 common shares, eliminating up to 113,444 potential new common shares.

After the reported transactions Yakov holds 4,378,014 common shares directly. His beneficial ownership also includes 227,003 Series A warrants ($90 strike, exp. 08-11-25), 56,751 Series B warrants ($45 strike, exp. 08-11-25) and 20,000 vested stock options ($0.03 strike).

The filing amends the Form 4 dated 01-26-24 to include the 2025 transactions.

Positive

• Cancellation of 1,021 Series A Preferred shares removes up to 113,444 potential common shares, modestly reducing future dilution.
• CEO’s increased direct ownership to 4.38 M shares may better align management and shareholder interests.

Negative

• Issuance of 4.69 M new common shares to satisfy liabilities increases share count and dilutes existing shareholders.
• Concentration of ownership in a single insider (CEO) heightens governance and liquidity concerns.

Insights

Equity Capital Markets Analyst

TL;DR: CEO swaps debt for 4.7 M shares, cancels preferred, gifts stock; net dilution but insider stake rises.

The company issued 4.69 M treasury shares at $1.31 to satisfy liabilities owed to its CEO, increasing outstanding common shares and potentially diluting existing holders. Conversely, the return of 1,021 Series A Preferred shares removes 113 k in possible future dilution. Net, Yakov’s direct stake climbs to 4.38 M shares, signaling confidence but concentrating ownership. Because the share issuance offsets the dilution benefit of the preferred cancellation, the overall impact on minority investors appears mixed. The transaction structure conserves cash, which may ease near-term liquidity pressures noted by the company in prior filings (not addressed here), but raises questions about equity value preservation. I classify the filing as routine insider activity with limited immediate market impact.
