Chief Business Officer SAMUEL YOUNT sells 159,464 shares (159.5K) at $13.46 across 2 transactions

Samuel Yount, Chief Business Officer of NerdWallet, executed 2 separate open-market sales totaling 159,464 shares for $2,146,385.44 on 2025-01-03, reducing his holdings by -44.2% from 360,515 shares to 201,051 shares. The sales occurred at $13.46 per share, while the stock currently trades at $14.38 (6.8% above the transaction price) and 30-day momentum shows +6.3% gain. The company generated $191,300,000 revenue in the latest quarter but remains unprofitable on a full-year basis with net income of only $100,000. Notably, Yount has executed 5 prior sales at NRDS within the past 16 calendar days (2024-12-18 through 2025-01-02), suggesting a concentrated divestment pattern rather than isolated liquidation. With no measurable outcomes yet available from his recent prior trades at this ticker, the timing signal remains ambiguous, though the rapid succession of tranches and magnitude of position reduction warrant investor attention to any subsequent company developments or strategic communications.

Significance 6/10

NRDS CBO sold 443,339 shares (63.6% reduction) across 4 transactions for $5,980,522.99, leaving 254,237 shares.

Samuel Yount, Chief Business Officer at NerdWallet, executed 4 separate sales totaling 443,339 shares for $5,980,522.99 at an average price of $13.49 between December 30, 2024, and January 2, 2025. This represents a 63.6% reduction in his holdings, from 697,576 shares to 254,237 shares. The company is currently trading at $13.50, near the transaction price, and remains unprofitable on a full-year basis despite quarterly revenue of $191,300,000.00 and annual growth of 11.2%. The magnitude of this divestiture—a six-figure reduction in absolute holdings by a senior executive—warrants investor attention, particularly given the company's thin profitability ($100,000.00 net income in the latest quarter) relative to its market capitalization of $999,378,000.00. The concentrated timing of these sales over a three-day window and Yount's prior sales activity at this ticker (5 prior trades within two weeks of this filing) suggest heightened transaction activity among insiders.

Significance 6/10

Chief Business Officer Samuel Yount sells 268,989 shares at $13.25 avg. for $3.6M; 39.7% reduction

Samuel Yount, Chief Business Officer of NerdWallet, filed 4 separate sales totaling 268,989 shares for $3,565,436.94 between December 12–18, 2024, at a blended average price of $13.25. The reduction cut his holdings from 678.1K to 409.1K shares, a 39.7% net reduction. The current stock price of $12.73 is 25.0% below the 52-week high of $16.98, placing this sale near the lower end of recent trading range. While Yount has a cross-ticker sell history (8 prior open-market sales), his same-ticker activity at NRDS shows 5 prior recent sales on December 12–16, 2024, none yet measurable at the 30- or 90-day mark. The company reported revenue of $191.3M in the latest quarter with annual growth of 11.2%, but remains unprofitable on a full-year basis (net income was negative). The timing and scale of this multi-transaction liquidation—occurring within days of prior sales and at a price 4.0% above the current market level—merits attention to whether broader capital allocation or valuation concerns are at play.

Significance 6/10

Chief Business Officer Samuel Yount sells 147,526 shares for $1,976,134.99 at NerdWallet (NRDS), reducing stake by 22.8%

Samuel Yount, Chief Business Officer of NerdWallet, executed 4 separate sales totaling 147,526 shares for $1,976,134.99 across December 12–16, 2024, at a blended average price of $13.40. The transaction reduced his holdings by 22.8%, from 646,388 shares to 498,862 shares. The sales occurred in a window when NRDS traded near recent lows: the current price of $13.31 is -21.6% from the 52-week high of $16.98 and down 4.1% over the prior 30 days, though the stock has gained 3.7% over 90 days. NerdWallet itself is unprofitable on a full-year basis despite posting $191.3M in revenue (latest quarter) and +11.2% annual growth, which compounds the risk profile for insiders managing large stakes. The timing and magnitude of this liquidation warrant scrutiny given the company's profitability challenges and the depressed valuation relative to recent highs.

Significance 6/10

NerdWallet Chief Business Officer Samuel Yount sells 165,167 shares for $2,261,652.93 across four transactions Dec 11-12.

Samuel Yount, Chief Business Officer at NerdWallet (NRDS), executed 4 separate sales totaling 165,167 shares for $2,261,652.93 on December 11-12, 2024, reducing his holdings by -23.2% to 548,066 shares. The sales occurred at blended average price of $13.69, within the 52-week range but -21.4% from the 52-week high and at prices slightly above the current price of $13.34. While the company shows revenue growth of +11.2% year-over-year to $191,300,000 in the latest quarter, it remains unprofitable with a negative full-year net income despite the marginal $100,000 quarterly profit. This large reduction in the CBOʼs direct holdings warrants attention given the combination of depressed valuation context (stock down 12.9% over 30 days) and the company's fundamentally challenged profitability profile despite revenue growth.

Topline Capital Partners acquired 461,777 shares (461.8K shares) across two open-market purchases on 2024-10-21 and 2024-10-22 for a combined $5,275,974.35 ($5.3M), raising its stake from 4,789,368 shares to 5,251,145 shares (+9.6%). The purchases occurred at a blended average price of $11.43, which is $0.42 above the current price of $11.01 and well below the 52-week high of $16.98; the stock has declined 14.0% over the past 30 days and 30.8% over 90 days. Across the insider's cross-ticker open-market history, 20 prior buy transactions averaged a 90-day return of +18.4% with a 90-day win rate of 64.29%, though this historical pattern does not establish forward expectations at this specific ticker. The company generated $150.6M in quarterly revenue with $-9.4M in net income, reflecting unprofitability, though annual revenue growth stands at +11.2%.
