CTO Huiwen Yao sells 40,000 ASTS shares ($3.9M) on 2026-06-05 via scheduled 10b5-1 plan; stock down 31.2% from high.

Huiwen Yao, CTO of AST SpaceMobile, sold 40,000 shares (40.0K shares) for $3,854,800.00 ($3.9M) at $96.37 on 2026-06-05 as part of a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on 2025-06-12—a scheduled, non-discretionary transaction. The sale reduces his holdings by 53.5% from 74,750 to 34,750 shares (34.8K shares). At current price of $92.06, the stock has declined 31.2% from its 52-week high of $133.86. His prior ASTS trades show mixed 90-day outcomes: returns ranging from +5.3% to +80.8% on four sales, with one sale on 2026-03-23 posting a 30-day loss of -4.8%. The underlying company reported revenue of $14,735,000.00 ($14.7M) in its latest quarter with annual revenue growth of +1505.2%, but net income remains deeply negative at $-191,012,000.00 ($-191.0M), indicating the business is unprofitable on a full-year basis. Because this trade is scheduled under a 10b5-1 plan, it does not reflect discretionary judgment about current valuation or company direction; however, the substantial position reduction, combined with severe and widening losses, warrants attention to the company's path to profitability and cash runway.

CTO Yao Huiwen sold 40,000 ASTS shares at $88.88 (-89.4% of holdings); stock down 28.8% from 52-week high.

Yao Huiwen, Chief Technology Officer of AST SpaceMobile, executed a large open-market sale of 40,000 shares at $88.88, reducing holdings by 89.4% and realizing $3,555,200.00. At the transaction price of $88.88, the shares were trading 25.4% above the current price of $86.98, yet this sale occurred as the stock sits 28.8% below its 52-week high of $122.09. Across his same-ticker history at ASTS (5 prior sells), Yao's track record shows inconsistent timing: only 1 of 5 prior sales were well-timed at the 90-day mark, and his most recent sale on 2025-12-05 posted a modest 13.5% gain within 30 days before the stock climbed 27.7% over 90 days—a signal of mistimed exit. The company's fundamentals present a contradiction: while annual revenue growth reached +1505.2%, net income stands at -$122,874,000.00 against quarterly revenue of $14,739,000.00, reflecting a deeply unprofitable business still scaling losses. The combination of a near-total liquidation by a key technical executive at elevated valuation against persistent operational losses and mixed prior execution deserves investor scrutiny.

CTO Yao Huiwen sold 40,000 ASTS shares at $73.52 (2.9M), cutting holdings by 89.4% to 4,750 shares

Yao Huiwen, Chief Technology Officer, executed a substantial sale of 40,000 shares at $73.52 on 2025-12-05, reducing his ASTS holdings from 44,750 shares to 4,750 shares—a 89.4% reduction in position size. The transaction occurred when the stock was 22.7% below its 52-week high of $95.69, though it was up 7.0% over the prior 30 days and 100.5% over 90 days. Examining his prior four ASTS trades reveals mixed timing: one of three measurable 90-day outcomes was well-timed (the stock fell after the sale), but the most recent September 2025 sale showed a 120.6% gain in the subsequent 30 days, indicating the insider sold before further upside. Against a backdrop of company fundamentals showing $14.7M quarterly revenue but a net loss of $122.9M over the most recent full fiscal year, the substantial reduction in the CTO's stake warrants attention to whether this reflects forward guidance concerns, though the 90-day returns from his ASTS transaction history do not show a reliable pattern of prescient timing.

CTO Yao Huiwen sold 40,000 shares of ASTS at $40.58, reducing holdings by 89.4% to 4.8K shares remaining.

Yao Huiwen, Chief Technology Officer, executed a substantial sale on 2025-09-16, offloading 40,000 shares (89.4% of pre-transaction holdings) at $40.58 per share for $1,623,200.00 total value. The sale represents a near-complete exit from his ASTS position, leaving only 4.8K shares. In the context of his prior trades at this ticker, Yao has demonstrated mixed timing: his most recent same-ticker sale on 2025-05-16 was well-timed (the stock gained 80.8% over the subsequent 90 days, so selling beforehand captured value), though his 2024-10-08 sale proved neutral (only -0.5% 90-day return). At the broader level, his cross-ticker track record shows a 50.00% well-timed rate on sells with an average 90-day return of 40.2% after sales, suggesting generally opposite timing (he sold and stocks rose). Against a company backdrop of negative $99.4M full-year net income and minimal revenue of $1.2M, a near-complete CTO exit is notable, especially given the stock has fallen 14.5% in the past 30 days and sits 31.4% below its 52-week high.

CTO Yao Huiwen sold 16,000 ASTS shares at $48.04; stock now $41.86, down 30.3% from 52-week high

Yao Huiwen, Chief Technology Officer, sold 16,000 shares (26.3% of pre-transaction holdings) at $48.04 on 2025-09-03. The stock has since declined to $41.86, down 20.4% over the past 30 days and 30.3% from its 52-week high of $60.06. His prior ASTS trades show mixed outcomes: a May 2025 sale preceded a 90-day gain of 80.8%, while an October 2024 sale preceded a 90-day loss of 0.5%, yielding a 50% well-timed rate at this ticker. Against his cross-ticker track record of 50% well-timed sells and an average 90-day return of 40.2% after sales, this current ASTS transaction appears more favorably positioned given the stock's recent weakness. The company's unprofitable state—with quarterly revenue of $1.2M against net income of $-99.4M—adds context to insider selling pressure.

CTO Yao Huiwen liquidates entire 55,000-share ASTS position at $26.82; stock now $24.61, -36.2% from 52-week high

Yao Huiwen, Chief Technology Officer, sold 55,000 shares on 2025-05-16 at $26.82, liquidating his entire stake and raising $1.5M. The company faces significant operational headwinds: revenue stands at $718.0K in the latest quarter with net income of $-45.7M, and the company was unprofitable over its most recent full fiscal year. The stock has declined -36.2% from its 52-week high of $38.60, though it gained 5.2% in the 30 days prior to this transaction. Notably, Yao's prior sell at ASTS (2024-10-08) saw the stock fall -0.5% over 90 days post-transaction, and his cross-ticker track record shows a 100% well-timed rate on sells, meaning prior sales preceded stock declines. The complete exit of a CTO's holdings warrants scrutiny given the company's burn rate and the insider's historical success in timing sales ahead of weakness.

CTO Yao Huiwen sold 45,000 shares (45.0% of stake) at $24.26; ASTS down 40.2% from 52-week high, posting -$72.6M net loss.

Yao Huiwen, Chief Technology Officer, divested 45,000 shares (45.0% of holdings) for $1.1M on 2024-10-08 while the company is deeply unprofitable, having posted a net income of $-72.6M over its most recent full fiscal year and generating only $900.0K in latest-quarter revenue. The stock has declined 40.2% from its 52-week high of $38.60 and is down 11.6% over 30 days, despite a +77.3% gain over 90 days, suggesting recent weakness in the price trajectory. This material reduction in CTO equity stake occurs against the backdrop of severe cash burn and negligible revenue, metrics that warrant close examination of the company's path to profitability and the operational challenges it faces.
