Rhea-AI Filing Summary

NCS Multistage Holdings, Inc. (NCSM) filed a Form 144 indicating a proposed sale of 548 common shares through Morgan Stanley Smith Barney on or around 08/04/2025 via NASDAQ. The shares were originally acquired as restricted stock on 02/28/2025. At the stated market value of $16,440.44, the transaction represents roughly 0.02% of the company’s 2,540,849 outstanding shares. No prior insider sales were reported in the past three months, and the filer affirms no undisclosed material adverse information about the issuer.

The filing is routine and signals a modest liquidity event rather than a strategic shift. Given the tiny proportion of shares involved, the market impact should be negligible unless taken as a broader sentiment indicator of insider confidence.

Positive

• Sale size is only 0.02% of outstanding shares, limiting dilution or pricing pressure.
• No insider sales reported in prior three months, indicating limited selling trend.

Negative

• Any insider disposition may be viewed negatively by some investors as a sentiment cue despite its small size.

Insights

Corporate Governance Analyst

TL;DR: Very small insider sale; governance impact minimal.

The proposed sale equals only 0.02% of shares outstanding and follows required disclosure under Rule 144. Absence of recent sales and the standard representation of no undisclosed adverse info suggest procedural compliance rather than concern. Investors should note, however, that any insider sale can be interpreted as a soft signal of sentiment even when immaterial in size.

Portfolio Manager

TL;DR: Transaction size immaterial; unlikely to affect valuation.

At just $16.4k, the liquidation has no bearing on cash flow, capital structure, or float. I view it as non-impactful for portfolio positioning, though I monitor cumulative insider activity for trend shifts.

Item 4. Description of Securities.

Not applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Not applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Trustees and Officers.

The Registrant’s declaration of trust provides that it will indemnify members of its board of trustees to the fullest extent permitted by law in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she was a member of the Registrant’s board of trustees or is or was serving at the Registrant’s request as a director, trustee, officer, partner, manager, member, employee or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, limited liability company, other enterprise or employee benefit plan, from all claims and liabilities to which such person may become subject by reason of service in such capacity, and further, the Registrant will pay or reimburse reasonable expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), as such expenses are incurred, of each member of the Registrant’s board of trustees in connection with any such proceedings.

The Registrant’s declaration of trust further provides that the Registrant will indemnify each of its officers and employees, and will have the power to indemnify each of its agents, to the fullest extent permitted by North Dakota law, as amended from time to time, in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she was the Registrant’s officer, employee or agent or is or was serving at the Registrant’s request as a director, trustee, officer, partner, manager, member, employee or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, limited liability company, other enterprise or employee benefit plan, from all claims and liabilities to which such person may become subject by reason of service in such capacity and will pay or reimburse reasonable expenses, as such expenses are incurred, of each officer, employee or agent in connection with any such proceedings.

For purposes of providing indemnification for members of the Registrant’s board of trustees, and all of the Registrant’s officers, employees and agents, the Registrant’s declaration of trust provides that the Registrant will have the authority to enter into insurance or other arrangements, with persons or entities that are regularly engaged in the business of providing insurance coverage, to indemnify all of the members of the Registrant’s board of trustees and all of the Registrant’s officers, employees and agents against any and all liabilities and expenses incurred by them by reason of their being members of the Registrant’s board of trustees, or the Registrant’s officers, employees or agents, whether or not the Registrant would otherwise have the power to indemnify such persons against such liability. Without limiting the Registrant’s power to procure or maintain any kind of insurance or other arrangement, the Registrant’s declaration of trust provides that the Registrant may, for the benefit of persons indemnified by us, (i) create a trust fund, (ii) establish any form of self-insurance, (iii) secure the Registrant’s indemnity obligation by grant of any security interest or other lien on the Registrant’s assets, or (iv) establish a letter of credit, guaranty or surety arrangement.

Any such insurance or other arrangement may be procured, maintained or established within the Registrant or with any insurer or other person deemed appropriate by the Registrant’s board of trustees regardless of whether all or part of the shares or other securities thereof are owned in whole or in part by us. In the absence of fraud, the

judgment of the board of trustees as to the terms and conditions of insurance or other arrangement and the identity of the insurer or other person participating in any arrangement will be conclusive, and such insurance or other arrangement will not be subject to voidability, nor subject the members of the Registrant’s board of trustees approving such insurance or other arrangement to liability, on any ground, regardless of whether the members participating in and approving such insurance or other arrangement will be beneficiaries thereof. The Registrant currently maintains insurance covering members of the board and officers against liability as a result of their actions or inactions on the Registrant’s behalf.

In addition, the Registrant has entered into Indemnification Agreements with each member of the Registrant’s board of trustees and the following officers: Ms. Anne Olson and Mr. Bhairav Patel. These agreements supplement and further the rights provided in the Registrant’s declaration of trust. The agreements generally provide that the Registrant shall indemnify the indemnitees to the fullest extent permitted by law, subject to certain exceptions, against judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement and all expenses actually and reasonably incurred by indemnitee in connection with their services as a trustee or officer and also provide rights to advancement of expenses and contribution. An agreement terminates the later of: (1) the date the indemnitee is no longer a trustee or employee of the Registrant and (2) the date that indemnitee is no longer subject to any actual or possible proceeding, as defined in the agreement.

With the exception of the indemnification and insurance provisions set forth above, there is currently no other statute, charter provision, bylaw, contract or other arrangement under which a member of the Registrant’s board of trustees or an employee is insured or indemnified in any manner against liability that he or she may incur in his or her capacity as a member of the Registrant’s board of trustees or as an employee.

Item 9. Undertakings.

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(a)(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this registration statement or any material change to such information in this registration statement;

Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
