Insights

TL;DR: Small reported disposition (81 shares) amid substantial indirect holdings via W.D. Company, Inc.

The Form 4 documents a minor disposal of 81 Class A shares on 09/08/2025 while confirming meaningful aggregate ownership through both direct holdings (896,954 shares) and indirect holdings via W.D. Company, Inc. and a GST Trust. The filing highlights that W.D. Company, Inc. holds 3,985,776 Class B shares convertible one-for-one, which increases the potential economic exposure if converted. The reporting person also disclaims beneficial ownership except for pecuniary interest, a typical legal clarification for indirect holdings. Overall, the transaction reported is immaterial in size relative to the total holdings disclosed.

TL;DR: Insider remains a significant affiliated owner and company officer despite a de minimis sale.

The filing reiterates that William T. Dillard II is both CEO and Chairman and reports substantial indirect influence through a 27.4% stake in W.D. Company, Inc., which itself owns millions of Class B shares convertible into Class A. The 81-share disposition is negligible and does not alter control dynamics. The disclaimer of beneficial ownership except for pecuniary interest is standard when shares are held through entities or trusts. No changes to officer/director status are reported.
