Forge Global Insider Filing Shows New 6,073-Share RSU Award to Director

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Forge Global Holdings (FRGE) – Form 4 insider filing

Director Lawrence E. Leibowitz received 6,073 restricted stock units (RSUs) on 18 Jul 2025 under the 2022 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. Each RSU converts 1-for-1 into common stock. Vesting occurs as follows: 4/12ths on the grant date and the remaining 8/12ths in equal monthly installments through the last day of each subsequent month; settled on or about the 10th of the following month. No cash consideration was paid (acquisition price $0).

After the award, Leibowitz directly owns 33,256 common shares. No sales or derivative positions were reported. The grant marginally increases insider ownership but is immaterial relative to Forge Global’s total shares outstanding and does not affect control or financial guidance.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: Routine RSU grant; negligible impact on valuation or float.

The filing documents a standard equity incentive: 6,073 RSUs granted to Director Leibowitz at $0 cost. Post-transaction ownership stands at 33,256 shares, a de minimis stake versus Forge Global’s public float. There are no sales, options, or derivative actions, so dilution and signaling effects are minimal. The staggered monthly vesting aligns the director’s incentives with shareholders but does not materially change insider ownership levels or governance dynamics. Overall market impact: neutral.
