[Form 4] Funko, Inc. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Josh Simon, identified as Chief Executive Officer and a director of Funko, Inc. (FNKO), reported grants of restricted stock units on 09/01/2025. The filing shows two awards: 1,000,000 RSUs that vest in four equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of September 1, 2025 (with full vesting on a change in control), and 750,000 RSUs with mixed time- and performance-based vesting. The 750,000 RSUs vest one-third over three years and two-thirds only if stock-price hurdles of $8.00 and $20.00 (measured by a 45-trading-day trailing average or change-in-control price) are achieved before the seventh anniversary, subject to continued service. Each RSU converts to one share of Class A common stock or cash at the issuer’s election. The Form 4 was signed by an attorney-in-fact on behalf of Mr. Simon on 09/03/2025.

Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR: Large executive equity grants align pay with long-term stock performance but represent a sizeable potential share issuance.

The awards combine time-based and performance-based RSUs, which aligns CEO incentives with both retention and share-price appreciation. The 1,000,000 time-vested RSUs promote retention over four years, while the 750,000 performance RSUs tie a material portion of compensation to achieving $8 and $20 price hurdles within seven years, measured on a 45-day trailing average or change-in-control price. This structure reduces short-term risk-taking and links pay to absolute share-price milestones. The filing does not disclose current outstanding shares or resulting dilution, so investors cannot quantify ownership impact from the document alone.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR: The grant structure uses robust performance conditions but is a materially large award requiring disclosure context.

Performance hurdles and multi-year vesting are governance-positive features that emphasize sustained value creation and retention. The cash-or-stock settlement clause is standard but can affect share count if settled in stock. The Form 4 confirms the awards and vesting mechanics but omits contextual details such as prior holdings, total dilution impact, or board rationale for grant size; those omissions limit assessment of proportionality and shareholder alignment from this filing alone.
