AvePoint, Inc. (NASDAQ:AVPT) Chief Financial Officer James Caci has recently sold a significant amount of company stock, according to the latest filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The transactions, which took place on March 20 and 21, involved a total sale of 10,000 shares, fetching a combined value of over $80,000.
The sales occurred at prices ranging from $8.00 to $8.0008 per share. Specifically, on March 20, Caci sold 3,061 shares at $8.00 each, and on the following day, he sold 6,939 shares with a slight increase in the price at $8.0008 per share. These sales were executed under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan, which allows company insiders to set up a predetermined schedule for buying and selling stock to avoid accusations of insider trading.
Additionally, a separate transaction on March 21 involved the disposition of 2,824 shares at a price of $8.03 each. This transaction was categorized differently and was related to the payment of exercise price or tax liability by delivering or withholding securities incident to the receipt, exercise, or vesting of a security issued in accordance with Rule 16b-3. The total value of this transaction amounted to $22,676.
Following these transactions, the SEC filing indicated that CFO James Caci still owns a substantial number of shares in AvePoint, including both non-RSU common stock and vested and unvested RSUs, totaling 707,649 shares after the reported sales.
Investors often monitor insider buying and selling as it can provide insights into an executive’s view of the company’s future prospects. While sales could indicate a variety of reasons beyond a lack of confidence in the company, such as personal financial management or diversification, they are still closely watched by the market for any potential signals.
