Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Workday insider transactions by David A. Duffield. The Form 4 reports multiple sales of Class A common stock on 09/15/2025 and 09/16/2025 under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, with individual weighted-average sale prices reported in footnotes ranging roughly from $218.47 to $224.5399. On 09/16/2025, 78,564 Class B shares were recorded in a conversion/acquisition (code C) with no cash price, and those Class B shares correspond to 78,564 underlying Class A shares. After the reported trades, the filing shows total beneficial ownership of approximately 41,766,802 shares held indirectly by a revocable trust. The filing was signed by an attorney-in-fact on 09/16/2025.

Positive

  • Disclosure of Rule 10b5-1 plan (adopted December 3, 2024) clarifies that sales were pre-planned
  • Large residual beneficial ownership remains: approximately 41,766,802 shares reported after transactions
  • Detailed weighted-average prices provided across multiple sale ranges for transparency

Negative

  • Substantial share disposals executed on 09/15/2025 and 09/16/2025 reducing direct holdings
  • Multiple sales at market across price ranges ($218.47 to $224.5399) may indicate significant insider liquidity

Insights

TL;DR: Significant insider sales disclosed, but substantial indirect ownership remains.

The filing documents concentrated selling across two dates via a previously adopted Rule 10b5-1 plan, with multiple weighted-average prices disclosed, indicating systematic disposals rather than a single block trade. Despite these disposals, the reporting person (through trusts) retains a large beneficial position of roughly 41.8 million shares, which maintains substantial economic and voting exposure. The sales and the recorded Class B acquisition/conversion are material for monitoring dilution and insider liquidity, but the filing itself provides no explanation beyond the 10b5-1 plan.

TL;DR: Transactions follow an established 10b5-1 plan; governance implications are routine disclosure.

The disclosure notes that sales were effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted December 3, 2024, which is standard for pre-arranged insider liquidity and reduces concerns about opportunistic trading. The filing also clarifies that many shares are held indirectly via a revocable trust and foundation, and documents automatic conversion mechanics between Class B and Class A shares. From a governance perspective, the form supplies required transparency on timing, amounts, and weighted-average prices without flagging unusual governance events.
