Grindr Inc. (GRND) Form 3 filed for John F. North, reporting his relationship to the issuer as Officer – Chief Financial Officer. The filing states the transaction date as 10/01/2025 and explicitly discloses that no securities are beneficially owned by the reporting person. The Form 3 was signed via attorney-in-fact on 10/03/2025.
Grindr Inc. appointed John F. North as Chief Financial Officer effective October 1, 2025, replacing Vanna Krantz, who will remain as a senior advisor until March 31, 2026. North brings prior CEO and CFO experience from several public companies and holds CPA and CFA designations.
Under his letter agreement, North will receive an annual base salary of $175,000, a target annual bonus equal to 100% of base salary (prorated for 2025), and a $150,000 relocation payment. If he experiences certain involuntary terminations, he is eligible for severance equal to at least 12 months of base salary, a pro‑rated annual bonus, and up to nine months of COBRA premiums.
North was granted 730,000 RSUs vesting over five years, with full acceleration upon certain terminations following a change of control. He is also eligible for annual KPI-based RSU awards valued between $500,000 and $700,000, and additional fully vested performance RSUs tied to market capitalization thresholds of $5 billion, $7.5 billion, and $10 billion, as well as upon qualifying change in control events.
Grindr Inc. reports that its ongoing stock repurchase program has raised the beneficial ownership of its largest stockholder, director G. Raymond Zage III, to a controlling level. The Board previously authorized a Repurchase Program allowing up to $500 million of common stock repurchases from March 7, 2025 to March 6, 2027, and instructed management to seek further Board input if buybacks might push his ownership to 50% or more.
In August 2025, a Special Committee of independent, disinterested directors was formed and determined that continuing repurchases, even if they caused Mr. Zage to exceed 50% ownership, was fair and in the best interests of other stockholders. Following these repurchases, outstanding common shares decreased to 187,032,103, and Mr. Zage’s beneficial ownership rose to approximately 50.11%, without him paying any consideration. The company states it is not aware of arrangements giving him additional control rights beyond those disclosed, and notes that his prior ownership range was approximately 44.9% to 49.9% since the 2022 business combination.
