FAQ

What does the Form 144 filed for DELL by Silver Lake mean?

It is a notice of proposed sale under Rule 144 by affiliated holders. The filing lists specific share counts and dollar values for proposed dispositions on 03/02/2026, 03/04/2026, and 03/06/2026, but does not confirm completed trades.

How many shares did Silver Lake Partners IV propose to sell in the filing?

Examples in the excerpt show proposed sales of 208,174 shares on 03/02/2026 and 212,193 shares on 03/04/2026. Each row pairs the share count with a dollar amount in the filing.

Are the dollar values in the Form 144 the proceeds the issuer receives?

No. The listed dollar amounts accompany the selling holders' proposed dispositions and represent value tied to those shares. The filing attributes sales to affiliated holders; it does not state that the issuer will receive proceeds.
