[Form 4] Hayward Holdings, Inc. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

GoDaddy Inc. (GDDY) filed a Form 144 indicating that insider Brian Sharples intends to sell up to 500 common shares through Morgan Stanley Smith Barney on 01 Aug 2025. The proposed sale is valued at $80,235, versus 142,488,191 shares outstanding, making the transaction <0.001% of total float. The filing also discloses two recent sales by Sharples: 500 shares on 02 Jun 2025 for $91,015 and 500 shares on 01 Jul 2025 for $89,840. Shares were originally acquired as restricted stock on 02 Jun 2020. No adverse information is asserted by the filer, and the representation of compliance with Rule 10b5-1 is included. While the dollar amount is modest, investors may monitor the pattern of recurring monthly sales.

Positive

• None.

Negative

• Ongoing insider selling: Sharples has filed to sell another 500 shares after disposing 1,000 shares in the prior two months, a pattern investors may view cautiously.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: Small, routine insider sale; immaterial to float but worth monitoring pattern.

The filing signals another incremental divestiture by director Brian Sharples, totaling 1,500 shares over three months. At under 0.001% of shares outstanding and roughly $261k cumulative proceeds, the impact on liquidity or control is negligible. Transactions appear under a possible 10b5-1 plan, limiting informational signaling value. Still, continued monthly sales may suggest personal diversification or modest profit-taking. I view the event as neutral for valuation, but analysts should track for any escalation.
