Matador Resources (MTDR) – Form 4 filed 08/05/2025
Chairman, CEO & Director Joseph Wm. Foran disclosed an open-market purchase of 5,000 MTDR shares on 08/01/2025 at a weighted-average $49.17, an outlay of roughly $246 k. His direct holdings rise to 6,606 shares.
Footnotes detail extensive family trusts, GRATs and a limited partnership that collectively hold about 5.4 million additional shares for which Foran disclaims beneficial ownership beyond his economic interest. No derivative positions or sales were reported.
The fresh purchase marginally increases direct exposure and can be read as a confidence signal, though the size is immaterial versus his indirect stake and Matador’s ~118 m shares outstanding.

Colodney, VP & Chief Accounting Officer, received 3,218 shares of restricted common stock and an equal number of phantom units on 07/21/2025 under equity-compensation plans. The stock was awarded at $0 cost and vests 05/01/2028; the phantom units vest in three equal annual tranches on 05/01/2026-2028.
Following the grant, Colodney now owns 9,740 directly-held shares, 2,270 shares indirectly through his 401(k), and 3,218 phantom units. No shares were sold and there was no open-market activity, so cash outflow/inflow is nil. The filing reflects routine executive incentive alignment rather than a discretionary purchase. Material dilution impact to shareholders is immaterial given MTDR’s ~118 mn basic shares outstanding.
