Insights
TL;DR Director-controlled entity sold 2,241,045 HUMA shares over three days; reporting shows Ayabudge now holds zero shares.
The reported Form 4 discloses concentrated dispositions by Ayabudge LLC under Mr. Dougan's control totaling 2,241,045 shares across 08/18/2025–08/20/2025. The filing provides weighted average prices and footnote price ranges for each day but does not break out per-transaction quantities by price. Post-transaction holdings indicate Ayabudge no longer beneficially owns shares while Mr. Dougan retains indirect stakes via spouse (243,851 shares) and The Niklason Living Trust (1,148,240 shares). The disclosure states proceeds were used to pay down leverage and to permit secondary liquidity when the issuer had no financing underway.
TL;DR Reported sales were executed by a controlled entity; director still holds material indirect positions through family/trust vehicles.
The Form 4 confirms the transactions were executed by Ayabudge LLC, controlled by the reporting person, and includes explanatory footnotes describing purpose and pricing ranges. The filing is procedural and compliant in form: it identifies relationship (Director), method of sale, and provides a commitment to furnish detailed price-by-price information on request. It does not disclose any agreements with the issuer or changes to board or officer status.
