Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Hill Path entities and Scott Ross filed a joint Form 4 disclosing an insider purchase in United Parks & Resorts Inc. (PRKS). On 09/30/2025 the reporting persons acquired 1,781 shares of Common Stock at a price of $52.62 per share that vested 100% immediately under the Issuer's 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The filing lists the post-transaction beneficial ownership for multiple related entities, including 93,323 shares for Scott Ross, 5,885,065 for Hill Path Capital Partners LP, and additional holdings across several Hill Path funds and affiliates. The report states the Reporting Persons, together with certain HAT funds (which currently hold no shares), may constitute a Section 13(d) group that collectively beneficially owns more than 10% of the issuer. Mr. Ross is identified as a director of the issuer. The filing is one of two identical reports filed to accommodate SEC e-filing limits and is signed by Scott Ross on 10/02/2025.

Insights

Director bought 1,781 shares; part of >10% ownership group.

This Form 4 shows Scott Ross, a director, received 1,781 shares that vested immediately under the 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan, indicating compensation-based stock issuance rather than an open-market purchase.

The filing explicitly states the Reporting Persons may form a Section 13(d) group that together beneficially own more than 10% of PRKS, which is material for governance and disclosure because it can affect reporting obligations and group-level coordination.

Multiple Hill Path entities report substantial holdings with detailed post-transaction balances.

The report lists post-transaction beneficial ownership amounts for each entity, notably 5,885,065 shares for Hill Path Capital Partners LP and aggregated holdings across related funds and GP entities as shown in the filing.

The filing clarifies the chain of beneficial ownership through general partners and managing members and includes signature attestations dated 10/02/2025, providing a clear, auditable record of ownership positions disclosed to the SEC.
