Insights

CEO’s reported beneficial ownership rises to 32.2% after warrant deal.

The amendment shows William W. Smith, Jr. controls 9,446,520 shares, or 32.2% of Smith Micro Software common stock when including exercisable warrants. This combines 367,397 shares with sole power and 9,079,123 shares with shared power via the Smith Living Trust.

A key update is the $1,000,000 purchase on February 3, 2026 of a common stock purchase warrant exercisable for 1,480,165 shares, which becomes exercisable on August 3, 2026. This adds potential future equity exposure but does not immediately change the share count.

The filing also details prior share grants and sales in December 2025, including performance-based stock awards and tax-planning sales by the Smith Living Trust, providing investors with additional transparency into the CEO’s equity transactions and concentration of control.
