[Form 4] Venu Holding Corporation Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Venu Holding Corp. (VENU) – Form 4 insider filing

CEO & Chairman Jay W. Roth reported four open-market sales of VENU common stock on 3 July 2025 and 7 July 2025:

• Direct: 2,723 sh @ $12.93 and 3,656 sh @ $12.56
• Indirect (KMR Living Trust): 741 sh @ $12.93 and 996 sh @ $12.56

Total shares sold: 8,116 (≈0.07 % of combined holdings).

Post-sale ownership:

• Direct – 9,261,649 sh
• Indirect (trust) – 1,004,350 sh

No derivative transactions were reported. The filing was signed by attorney-in-fact on 8 July 2025. The modest scale relative to the insider’s remaining 10.3 million-share stake suggests routine portfolio management rather than a strategic exit, yet investors often view any C-suite sales as a potential sentiment signal.

Positive

• None.

Negative

• CEO insider sale: Disposed of 8,116 shares, which can be interpreted as a mild negative sentiment signal despite being a small percentage of holdings.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: CEO sold 8,116 shares (~$103k), keeps 10.3 M stake; minimal impact.

The disposition represents under 0.1 % of Mr. Roth’s ownership and does not materially change insider alignment. Average sale price of $12.75 gives a rough cash value of ~$103 k, immaterial against VENU’s market cap (not provided in filing). No accompanying option exercise, 10b5-1 notation, or strategic context is disclosed. While any leadership-level sale can pressure sentiment short term, the tiny percentage and continued >10 M-share holding point to routine diversification. I classify it as neutral-to-slightly negative for sentiment, not fundamental.
