Insider Transactions Analyst

Large insider buy: Director/10% owner acquired 1,000,000 GRND shares in a private sale, increasing direct holdings; sizable indirect stakes disclosed with disclaimers.

The filing reports a purchase of 1,000,000 shares of Grindr Inc. common stock on October 9, 2025 at $13.15 per share, via private sale from Longview Grindr Holdings Limited. Following this transaction, the reporting person shows 7,733,283 shares held directly. The report also lists indirect positions of 85,926,333 shares held by Tiga Eighty-Eight Pte. Ltd. and 1,060,507 shares held by Big Timber Holdings, LLC, accompanied by standard beneficial ownership disclaimers.

This is an insider purchase, not a sale, and it increases direct exposure. The acquisition occurred off-market, which indicates a negotiated transfer rather than open-market activity. Disclaimers clarify that indirect holdings are reported for completeness, with pecuniary-interest limits as customary under Section 16.

Key items to watch: any subsequent Form 4 activity that alters direct or indirect positions, and whether additional transfers occur from the same counterparty. The transaction date October 9, 2025 and the price $13.15 provide a clear reference point for future disclosures.
