Mudrick Capital Management, LP Buy
15,595 shares
$112,596
@ $7.22
Significance 3/10

Mudrick Capital bought 15,595 VRM shares at $7.22 (June 15, 2026); stock now $7.88, down 77.5% from $34.99 high.

Mudrick Capital Management, LP purchased 15,595 shares of Vroom at $7.22, increasing its non-derivative holdings to 3.98M shares. The transaction occurred in a severely distressed context: the stock has collapsed 77.5% from its 52-week high of $34.99 and fallen 29.5% in the preceding 30 days. Vroom's fundamentals are deteriorating sharply—annual revenue contracted 54.2%, the company posted a $-19.1M net loss in its latest quarter, and the enterprise is unprofitable on a full-year basis, with a current market cap of only $41.0M. Within Mudrick's prior five purchases at VRM dating back to June 2025, only one exhibited positive 90-day returns, indicating a weak timing record at this ticker despite a cross-ticker track record averaging +4.6% at the 90-day mark. The insider retains 15,595 warrant holdings (derivative securities), so the position is not fully exposed in non-derivative form alone. The purchase appears discretionary rather than a scheduled vesting event, but the accumulation into deteriorating fundamentals and severe downward price momentum warrants scrutiny of whether this represents informed conviction or deployment into a deeply discounted but operationally challenged asset.

Significance 4/10

Mudrick Capital bought 15,595 VRM shares at $7.22; stock down -77.5% from 52-week high, company unprofitable with -54.2% annual revenue decline.

Mudrick Capital Management, LP (Director) purchased 15,595 shares at $7.22 on 2026-06-15, increasing non-derivative holdings from 3,967,251 to 3,982,846 shares. The purchase occurred as Vroom trades at $7.88, down -77.5% from its 52-week high of $34.99 and down -29.5% over the prior 30 days, while the company reported annual revenue decline of -54.2% and negative net income of $-19,058,000.00 in its most recent quarter. Mudrick's prior VRM purchases in June 2025 yielded mixed results, with 1 of 5 prior trades showing positive 90-day returns, while his cross-ticker track record showed 8 prior buys averaging 90d return of +4.6% with a 50.00% win rate. The continued accumulation into a deteriorating market-cap position ($41.0M) paired with fundamental headwinds deserves scrutiny on whether this reflects conviction or adherence to a predetermined plan.

Mudrick Capital Management, L.P. Buy
3,662 shares
$102,532
@ $28.00
Significance 5/10

Mudrick Capital (10% owner) purchases 3,662 shares of VRM at $28.00 over 2 days, raising stake 66.3% to 9,186 shares

Mudrick Capital's 2 separate purchases totaling 3,662 shares for $102,532.35 represent a substantial 66.3% increase in its VRM holding, with all shares acquired at $28.00 per share. The timing is noteworthy: five consecutive prior buys at VRM (June 3–9) preceded this filing, suggesting sustained engagement with the stock as it trades at $27.07, currently -32.3% from its 52-week high of $39.98 and -5.3% over the past 30 days. Against this context, VRM remains fundamentally challenged: the company posted $-39.7M in net income on $235.6M quarterly revenue, with annual revenue declining -54.2% and a market cap of only $139.8M. The rapid sequence of purchases by a 10% owner at depressed prices reflects accumulation activity, but the company's severe unprofitability and revenue contraction leave investors with limited clarity on Mudrick's underlying thesis.

Mudrick Capital Management, L.P. Buy
4,570 shares
$124,401
@ $27.22
Significance 4/10

Mudrick Capital (10% owner) purchased 4,570 shares of VRM across 3 transactions for $124,401.01, raising stake to 3.96M shares

Mudrick Capital Management, a 10% shareholder, executed 3 separate purchases totaling 4,570 shares over a 5-day window (June 2–9, 2025) at prices ranging from $24.48 to $27.99, blending to $27.22 per share. The purchases increased holdings by 4,570 shares (+0.1% vs pre-transaction holdings of 3.96M shares). The timing coincides with stock trading near its 52-week high of $39.98 ($28.00 current, -30.0% from peak), and VRM faces significant headwinds: annual revenue declined 54.2%, the company posted -$39.7M net income last fiscal year, and market cap stands at $144.6M against -$39.7M trailing earnings. Mudrick's three prior trades at this ticker remain unmeasurable at the 90-day mark; across-ticker, the insider has completed 3 prior open-market buys with a 0% well-timed rate at 90 days. The incremental stake increase is modest relative to existing holdings.

Mudrick Capital Management, L.P. Buy
6,788 shares
$172,528
@ $25.42
Significance 4/10

10% owner Mudrick Capital purchases 6,788 shares across 3 transactions for $172.5K as stock declines 34.2% from 52-week high.

Mudrick Capital Management, a 10% owner, executed 3 separate purchases totaling 6,788 shares for $172,528.04 on consecutive trading days (June 2–4, 2025) at blended average price of $25.42. The purchases occurred amid significant deterioration in VRM's valuation and operating performance: the stock trades -34.2% below its 52-week high, has declined -28.0% over the prior 30 days, and the company posted -54.2% annual revenue contraction with a full-year net loss of $-39.7M. The transaction adds only 0.2% to Mudrick's existing 3.95M share position, representing a modest incremental stake. The magnitude and pattern of purchases—small relative to existing holdings, distributed across multiple days at progressively higher prices ($24.13 → $24.88 → $25.80)—do not reveal conviction or strategic thesis; they reflect routine portfolio activity during a period of material price and earnings deterioration.

MYLOD ROBERT J JR Buy

@ $5.23
Significance 7/10

VRM director Robert J Mylod Jr purchases 50,000 shares at $5.23 after 54.2% revenue decline and -$39.7M annual net loss

Director Robert J Mylod Jr purchased 50,000 shares for $261,730.00 on 2024-11-27, tripling his holdings from 15,856 to 65,856 shares. This represents his second open-market purchase at VRM; his prior buy on 2023-05-25 delivered a 90-day return of +12353.8%. The current market context is stark: VRM stock has fallen -92.4% from its 52-week high of $65.62 to $5.01, with the company reporting -54.2% annual revenue growth and -$39.7M in net income over its most recent full fiscal year. A director's substantial accumulation at these depressed valuations—with prior timing accuracy at this exact ticker—occurs against a backdrop of profound operational deterioration. The tension between historical buy-timing accuracy and current fundamental weakness merits close monitoring.
