EchoStar Corporation (SATS) 鈥� Form 4 insider transaction filed 07/03/2025

Director R. Stanton Dodge automatically exercised 5,000 non-employee director stock options on 07/01/2025 at an exercise price of $27.28 per share under the company鈥檚 2017 NED Stock Option Plan. Upon exercise, the company withheld 4,810 shares at a market price of $28.36 to cover the option cost and related taxes (transaction code F). Net of withholding, Dodge鈥檚 direct ownership increased by only 鈮�190 shares, bringing his direct holding to 26,365 Class A common shares; he also holds 1,642 shares indirectly through a 401(k). All derivative securities reported in this filing were fully settled, leaving the insider with zero remaining options from this grant.

The transaction was automatic and executed on the option鈥檚 expiration date, implying no discretionary open-market buying or selling. The minimal net share addition and tax-related share withholding make the economic impact to Dodge and to outside investors modest.

EchoStar Corporation (SATS) filed a Form 4 indicating a new equity grant to President, Technology & Chief Operating Officer John Swieringa. On 06/26/2025 Swieringa received 250,000 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), each convertible into one share of Class A common stock. The RSUs were issued at no cost to the executive and will vest 20 % annually beginning 10/01/2025, fully vesting after five years.

The filing shows no open-market purchases or sales; it is solely an equity award that increases Swieringa鈥檚 derivative holdings to 250,000 RSUs. Ownership is reported as direct, and no other indirect positions are disclosed. There is no accompanying cash compensation data or performance criteria detailed in the form.

Investor takeaways:

• The size of the award signals EchoStar鈥檚 intent to retain and incentivize a key C-suite executive following the company鈥檚 strategic initiatives.
• Because RSUs settle in shares, future share issuance will have a dilutive effect, albeit limited relative to EchoStar鈥檚 total shares outstanding.
• No insider selling is reported, removing immediate concerns about negative insider sentiment.

MP Materials Corp. (ticker: MP) filed a Form 4 on 06/30/2025 disclosing that director Connie K. Duckworth acquired 901 Deferred Stock Units (DSUs). The grant reflects her election to defer board cash retainers into equity. Each DSU converts 1-for-1 into common shares and is fully vested at issuance. Settlement will occur on the earlier of (i) June 15 of the year following five full calendar years after the retainer year, (ii) certain change-in-control events, or (iii) Duckworth鈥檚 separation from service.

The transaction was coded 鈥淎鈥� (acquisition) at a cost basis of $0, typical for compensation-related equity awards. Following the grant, Duckworth鈥檚 direct beneficial ownership increases to 35,387 shares of MP common stock. No derivative securities were reported, and there were no dispositions or open-market purchases/sales.

While the share count added is modest relative to MP鈥檚 outstanding float, such insider accruals modestly strengthen board-shareholder alignment. From a valuation perspective, the grant is immaterial and unlikely to affect market perception or liquidity.

EchoStar Corporation (NASDAQ: SATS) 鈥� Schedule 13D/A (Amendment No. 60) filed 30 June 2025 updates the cumulative ownership of Chairman Charles W. Ergen, his spouse Cantey M. Ergen, affiliated GRATs and Telluray Holdings following several estate-planning transfers on 26 June 2025.

• Charles W. Ergen now reports beneficial ownership of 143,388,224 shares (Class A & B combined), representing 50.6 % of the outstanding Class A on an as-converted basis and approximately 86.8 % voting power due to 10-vote Class B shares.
• Cantey M. Ergen reports 141,901,008 shares (50.3 % of Class A; 86.8 % voting power).
• A newly formed Ergen Two-Year June 2025 SATS GRAT received 16.8 million Class B shares from Mr. Ergen; it is scheduled to expire 26 June 2027 with Mrs. Ergen as sole trustee.
• The Ergen Two-Year June 2023 DISH GRAT expired, distributing 11.34 million Class B shares to Mr. Ergen and 3.76 million shares to a family trust.
• Other existing GRATs (Dec-23, May-24, Jul-24, May-25) and Telluray Holdings continue to hold sizable Class B positions, with Telluray alone controlling 37.5 million shares (19.6 % of Class A equivalent; 24.1 % voting power).
• Under the Amended & Restated Support Agreement (2 Oct 2023) the Reporting Persons have agreed for three years post-merger with DISH not to vote their Class A shares on matters where Class B is disenfranchised, marginally reducing effective voting power to ~85.9 % (Mr.) and ~85.8 % (Mrs.).

No open-market purchases or sales with third parties are disclosed; all movements are internal, estate-planning driven and cash-less. Public float and minority voting influence remain largely unchanged, preserving the Ergen family鈥檚 tight control.

UBS AG is offering unsecured, unsubordinated Capped Market-Linked Notes linked to the worse performer between the Nasdaq-100 Index (NDX) and the S&P 500 Index (SPX). The Notes price on 9 July 2025, settle on 14 July 2025 and mature on 14 January 2027 (final valuation 11 January 2027).

Return profile: at maturity investors receive the principal plus (i) the least-performing underlying return if positive, subject to a maximum gain of 15.20% (maximum payment $1,152); or (ii) the greater of the least-performing underlying return and a minimum return of 鈥�5.00% if the underlying return is zero or negative. Accordingly, principal is 95 % protected when held to maturity, but upside is capped.

Key economics: issue price $1,000; underwriting discount $6.50 (0.65 %); net proceeds $993.50. The estimated initial value is $959.40鈥�$989.40, below issue price due to internal funding spreads and distribution costs. UBS Securities LLC is the underwriter and may re-allow the full discount to third-party dealers.

Risk considerations: investors bear the credit risk of UBS and market risk of each index on the final valuation date. The Notes pay no coupons, forgo all dividends, are not listed, and may exhibit limited or no secondary liquidity. Trades executed prior to settlement require T+3 settlement arrangements. The offering documents highlight additional risks under 鈥淜ey Risks鈥� and 鈥淩isk Factors.鈥�

Investor suitability: appropriate only for investors who can tolerate up to a 5 % loss, accept capped upside, understand structured products, and intend to hold to maturity.

EchoStar Corporation (SATS) 鈥� Schedule 13D/A (Amendment 59) filed 23 June 2025

The filing discloses the latest beneficial ownership positions of Executive Chairman Charles W. Ergen and his spouse Cantey M. Ergen. Mr. Ergen reports 147,150,805 shares (Class A and Class B combined), equating to 51.2 % of EchoStar鈥檚 outstanding Class A. After assumed conversion of his Class B shares and exercisable options, the economic stake would be about 50.9 %, while the dual-class structure grants him approximately 89.3 % of total voting power. Mrs. Ergen reports 145,663,589 shares, or 51.0 % of Class A, with 88.4 % effective voting power in situations where Class B holders cannot vote Class A.

Control mechanics 鈥� Each Class B share carries 10 votes and is convertible 1-for-1 into Class A. The couple鈥檚 holdings are spread across direct ownership, retirement plans, Telluray Holdings LLC, multiple GRAT trusts (2023-2025), and CONX Corp. stock controlled via nXgen Opportunities LLC. Mr. Ergen alone retains 19.9 m shares under sole voting and dispositive power and 127.3 m under shared power; Mrs. Ergen shows 126.5 m sole voting and 19.2 m shared.

Support Agreement limitation 鈥� Under the Amended & Restated Support Agreement dated 2 Oct 2023, the Ergens agreed not to vote their Class A shares (except on matters where Class B is excluded) for three years following the DISH-EchoStar merger closing, marginally reducing Mr. Ergen鈥檚 effective voting influence on Class A-only matters to 88.4 %.

Investor take-away 鈥� The amendment confirms that the Ergen family maintains majority economic ownership and near-total voting control of EchoStar, ensuring continued strategic direction by existing leadership while limiting minority shareholder influence. No purchase price, financing details or earnings metrics accompany the filing; the disclosure is strictly an ownership update.
