Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Andreessen Horowitz-related funds and principals reported conversions of multiple blocks of Samsara Inc. Class B common stock into Class A shares and pro rata in-kind distributions to partners and related entities. The filing reports that between September 8-9, 2025 the Reporting Persons converted a total of 16,276,565 Class B shares into Class A stock (shares issued subsequent to Sept. 2, 2025) and distributed the resulting Class A shares to partners and affiliates, with several small allocations to a16z Capital Management.

The filing discloses open-market sales by a16z Capital Management (33,331 shares) and by affiliated funds that received distributed shares: AH LSV I sold 503,000 shares and AH Parallel V sold 257,000 shares on September 9, 2025, at weighted-average prices in the $37.90–$39.70 range. As a result, the Reporting Persons ceased to be beneficial owners of more than 5% of Samsara Class A common stock as of September 8, 2025; Marc Andreessen and Benjamin Horowitz are each reported with ~1.2% beneficial ownership.

Positive

  • Detailed disclosure of conversions, pro rata in-kind distributions and open-market sales including exact share counts and weighted-average prices
  • Transparency commitment by a16z Capital Management, AH LSV I and AH Parallel V to provide full breakdowns of number of shares sold at each price on request
  • Clear mapping of voting and dispositive powers across Andreessen Horowitz entities, aiding investor understanding of control relationships

Negative

  • Significant share sales following the distributions (503,000 shares by AH LSV I; 257,000 shares by AH Parallel V; 33,331 shares by a16z Capital Management) that increased supply into the market
  • Collective ownership fell below 5% as of September 8, 2025, removing the Reporting Persons from the >5% beneficial owner category

Insights

TL;DR: Large conversions and immediate distributions led to several hundred-thousand-share open-market sales, reducing the group below 5% ownership.

The filing documents a coordinated conversion of Class B to Class A shares followed by pro rata in-kind distributions to limited partners and related entities, producing sizable sell pressure when recipients sold in the open market on September 9, 2025. Notable executed sales include 503,000 shares by AH LSV I and 257,000 shares by AH Parallel V; a16z Capital Management sold 33,331 shares. Weighted-average sale prices reported range roughly from $37.90 to $39.70 per share while the prior-day NYSE close cited was $41.53. These transactions materially reduced the Reporting Persons' collective stake so they ceased to hold more than 5% of the class. For investors this filing explains a near-term supply increase from insider-related distributions and subsequent market sales, disclosed with specific volumes and price ranges.

TL;DR: The filing is a routine, transparent disclosure of ownership conversion, distribution and related sales by affiliated funds and principals.

The amendment clarifies identity and voting/dispositive powers across multiple Andreessen Horowitz vehicles and confirms that distributions were made pro rata and without consideration. The filing includes undertakings to provide detailed price-level sale information to the issuer, shareholders or SEC staff, and cites related governance documents (investors' rights and indemnification agreements) by reference. The discursive mapping of which entities hold voting/dispositive power is consistent with standard venture-fund reporting and helps stakeholders trace post-conversion ownership and control dynamics. The reduction below 5% is material for certain disclosure thresholds but appears to reflect pass-through partner allocations rather than a governance change by the principals themselves.
