Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Form 4 overview: AeroVironment (AVAV) director Edward R. Muller reported the grant of 609 restricted shares of common stock on 06/27/2025 at an indicated value of $278.07 per share.

The award vests in three equal tranches on July 11, 2026 / 2027 / 2028. Following the grant, Muller鈥檚 beneficial ownership stands at:

Direct: 3,000 shares (includes the new 609-share grant)
Indirect 鈥� 1991 Family Trust: 47,400 shares
Indirect 鈥� IRA: 810 shares

No derivative securities were reported, and there were no dispositions. The filing indicates that the acquisition is an equity compensation award rather than an open-market purchase, suggesting routine director compensation rather than a strategic insider buy.

Insights

TL;DR: Small routine equity grant; negligible impact on AVAV valuation.

The 609-share restricted stock award, worth roughly US$169k, represents less than 0.1% of AeroVironment鈥檚 outstanding shares and only modestly increases the director鈥檚 direct holdings. Because the shares vest over three years, near-term supply-demand dynamics remain unchanged. The absence of open-market buying signals limits the informational value, making the disclosure largely administrative. I classify this as not impactful for investors.
