[Form 4] VOLITIONRX LTD Insider Trading Activity
Ann-Louise Batchelor, Group Chief Marketing Officer of VolitionRx Ltd (VNRX), reported a transaction dated 09/28/2025 on Form 4 in which 5,604 shares of common stock were disposed of under code F at a price of $0.605 per share. The filing shows 154,282 shares beneficially owned directly after the transaction and 29,406 shares indirectly beneficially owned through her spouse.
The filing explanation states these 5,604 shares represent the portion of 11,925 restricted stock units whose shares were retained by VolitionRx and cancelled to satisfy the reporting person’s tax withholding obligations upon settlement. The form clarifies that no shares were sold by the reporting person or by VolitionRx in connection with the withholding.
- Transaction was an administrative tax withholding of vested RSUs rather than an open-market sale
- Filing discloses post-transaction ownership: 154,282 shares direct and 29,406 shares indirect (by spouse)
- Issuer reported no sale by the reporting person, clarifying intent and reducing likelihood of signaling a sell decision
- Shares were cancelled to satisfy tax withholding, which reduced the reporting person’s direct shares by 5,604
- Filing provides limited context beyond the RSU count and withholding; investors cannot determine exact economic impact from this form alone
Insights
TL;DR: Routine tax-withholding share cancellation; limited material impact on ownership.
The reported transaction is coded F, indicating shares were withheld to satisfy tax-withholding upon settlement of restricted stock units rather than a market sale. The direct beneficial ownership post-transaction is 154,282 shares, with an additional 29,406 shares held indirectly via spouse. This is a common administrative step when RSUs vest and does not represent active divestiture by the insider. For investors, this is procedural and unlikely to signal a change in insider conviction.
TL;DR: Administrative share withholding for taxes; disclosure aligns with Section 16 reporting requirements.
The explanation explicitly states the shares were retained by the issuer to satisfy tax obligations on 11,925 RSUs and that no sale occurred. The signature and dating are present, and the filing identifies the reporting person’s role as Group Chief Marketing Officer. This submission appears to meet Form 4 disclosure norms for RSU settlements and withholding, with clear distinction between cancellation and sale.
