Ford Mtr Co Del SEC Filings

Ford Motor Company (symbol: F) has filed a Form 144 indicating the proposed sale of 30,000 common shares under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933. The shares will be sold through UBS Financial Services, Inc., 11 Madison Ave., New York, NY 10010, with an aggregate market value of $330,000. The approximate sale date disclosed is 07/01/2025, and the shares are to be listed on the NYSE.

The filing shows that the seller originally acquired the shares via three restricted-stock unit (RSU) vesting events on 03/02/2021 (5,424 shares), 03/04/2022 (13,949 shares) and 03/04/2024 (10,627 shares), matching the total of 30,000 shares to be sold. Ford’s total shares outstanding, as referenced in the filing, are 3,905,696,769; therefore, the proposed sale represents roughly 0.0008 % of shares outstanding—an immaterial fraction from a market-capitalization standpoint.

No prior sales were reported during the last three months, and no remarks or 10b5-1 plan adoption dates were disclosed. The filer has affirmed that he or she is not in possession of undisclosed material adverse information.

Investment take-away: While the notice signals insider intent to liquidate equity worth $330,000, the volume is negligible relative to Ford’s float and should not, by itself, influence the valuation or liquidity of Ford shares.

Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is marketing Autocallable Leveraged Index Return Notes® (LIRNs) linked to the Nasdaq-100 Index® with a scheduled maturity in July 2028. The $10 face-value notes feature a single observation date about one year after pricing. If on that date the Index closes at or above its starting level, the notes are automatically called for $11.00 per unit, delivering a 10% absolute return and terminating the investment early.

If not called, holders participate in Index appreciation at a leverage factor to be fixed between 140%-160%. For example, at the indicative midpoint of 150%, a 20% Index rise would generate a 30% note return. There is no upside cap other than the leverage multiple. However, principal is fully at risk: if the Ending Value falls below the Starting Value, investors are exposed to a 1-for-1 loss of principal, down to zero, because the threshold is set at 100% of the Starting Value.

All payments rely on the senior unsecured credit of BNS. The initial estimated value is projected between $9.26 and $9.56, below the $10 public offer price, reflecting a $0.20 underwriting discount and a $0.05 hedging-related charge. Minimum purchase is 100 units, and investors buying ≥300,000 units in household accounts receive a $0.05 price concession. The notes will not be listed, and BofA Securities (calculation agent) is under no obligation to provide secondary liquidity.

Key terms:

• Principal Amount: $10 per unit
• Term: ~3 years if not called
• Call Level: 100% of Starting Value (Observation Date ~July 2026)
• Call Amount: $11.00 (includes $1.00 premium, 10%)
• Participation Rate: 140%-160% (set on pricing date)
• Threshold & Downside: 100% – full downside exposure
• Issuer Credit: senior unsecured claim on BNS; not FDIC/CDIC insured
• Secondary Market: none expected; any repurchases at issuer/agent discretion

Risk highlights detailed in the term sheet include potential loss of entire principal, valuation below issue price due to internal funding rate, limited liquidity, tax uncertainties under U.S. and Canadian law, and conflicts of interest as BofA Securities acts as calculation agent and hedging counterparty.

The product suits investors who are moderately bullish on the Nasdaq-100 over the next 12 months, can tolerate full downside risk, and do not require interim income or liquidity. It is not appropriate for capital-preservation objectives.
