Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince, who is also Board Co-Chair and a director, reported multiple transactions in Cloudflare Class A common stock over several days in early December 2025. On December 3, 4, and 5, 2025, he converted blocks of Class B common stock into Class A common stock, including 30,209 shares on December 3 and 52,384 shares on both December 4 and 5, all held indirectly through trusts.

Following these conversions, he reported a series of open-market sales of Class A shares on the same dates at weighted average prices generally between about $198 and $205 per share, in multiple tranches. The filing states that each share of Class B stock is convertible into one share of Class A stock with no expiration and that the reported sales were made under a pre-arranged Rule 10b5‑1 trading plan adopted on February 11, 2025.

Insights

CEO executed planned stock sales via trust structures and conversions, with large indirect holdings and voting power remaining.

The filing shows the CEO and Board Co-Chair of Cloudflare, Inc. engaging in multiple transactions over December 3–5, 2025. Class B Common Stock, which converts into Class A on a one-for-one basis with no expiration, was converted (code "C") and corresponding Class A shares were then sold (code "S"). These sales occurred at weighted average prices between about $198 and $205 per share and were executed under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on February 11, 2025.

The reporting person holds these securities indirectly through several trusts, including the Matthew Prince Revocable Trust and various grantor retained annuity and family trusts. The filing describes re-registrations among trusts, which change the record holder but keep the reporting person in an advisory or trustee role. Following the reported transactions, substantial derivative positions in Class B shares remain, each convertible into Class A on a one-to-one basis, preserving significant economic and voting exposure.

This activity mainly reflects ongoing equity diversification and estate planning within a pre-established plan rather than a disclosed change in company operations or strategy. The key items to watch over time are the pace of future Rule 10b5-1 sales, any further re-registrations among the trusts, and changes in total beneficial ownership and voting power as additional Class B shares convert into Class A in subsequent reporting periods.
