Stagwell Inc. (STGW) � Form 4 insider transaction

Director Eli Samaha elected to take his Q2-2025 board fee in equity rather than cash, receiving 4,444 fully-vested Class A shares on 01-Jul-2025. The implied conversion of a US$20,000 fee equates to an estimated price of roughly $4.50 per share (based on the prior-day close). Following the grant, Samaha’s direct ownership rises to 134,281 shares. In addition, he continues to indirectly control 8,014,322 shares through funds managed by Madison Avenue Partners, LP, for which he serves as managing partner. The transaction is coded “A� (acquisition) and reflects routine non-cash director compensation rather than an open-market purchase. No derivative securities were reported.

The filing modestly increases insider ownership but does not represent a material capital commitment or signal a directional view on the company’s valuation.

Il direttore Eli Samaha ha scelto di ricevere il compenso del secondo trimestre 2025 per il consiglio di amministrazione in azioni anziché in contanti, ottenendo 4.444 azioni di Classe A completamente maturate il 01-lug-2025.

Dopo l’assegnazione, la partecipazione diretta di Samaha sale a 134.281 azioni. Inoltre, continua a controllare indirettamente 8.014.322 azioni tramite fondi gestiti da Madison Avenue Partners, LP, di cui è managing partner.

Non sono stati segnalati strumenti derivati.

La comunicazione aumenta leggermente la partecipazione interna ma non rappresenta un impegno di capitale significativo né indica una posizione direzionale sulla valutazione della società.

Stagwell Inc. (STGW) � Form 4 Insider-Transaktion

Der Direktor Eli Samaha entschied sich, seine Vergütung für das zweite Quartal 2025 im Vorstand in Aktien statt in bar zu erhalten und erhielt am 01. Juli 2025 4.444 vollwertige Class A Aktien. Die implizite Umrechnung einer Gebühr von 20.000 US-Dollar entspricht einem geschätzten Preis von etwa 4,50 USD pro Aktie (basierend auf dem Schlusskurs des Vortags). Nach der Zuteilung steigt Samahas direkter Besitz auf 134.281 Aktien. Zusätzlich kontrolliert er weiterhin indirekt 8.014.322 Aktien über Fonds, die von Madison Avenue Partners, LP verwaltet werden, bei denen er als geschäftsführender Partner tätig ist. Die Transaktion ist als „A� (Erwerb) codiert und stellt eine routinemäßige nicht-barwertige Vergütung für Direktoren dar, kein Kauf am offenen Markt. Es wurden keine Derivate gemeldet.

Die Meldung erhöht den Insider-Besitz geringfügig, stellt jedoch keine wesentliche Kapitalbindung dar und signalisiert keine Richtungsänderung hinsichtlich der Bewertung des Unternehmens.

Insights

TL;DR: Routine equity fee; small, aligns interests, negligible market impact.

This Form 4 shows Mr. Samaha opting for stock instead of cash, a common governance practice that marginally improves board-member alignment with shareholders. The absolute size�4.4k shares or ~US$20k—is immaterial versus the director’s existing 8 million indirect shares and STGW’s 281 million fully-diluted share count. Because it is a fee conversion, not an out-of-pocket purchase, signaling value is weak. The move is governance-friendly but not financially impactful.

TL;DR: Neutral; insider equity grant does not alter investment thesis.

The equity-in-lieu arrangement increases Samaha’s direct stake to 134k shares, but his economic exposure already lies in the 8.0 million shares held via Madison Avenue funds. No derivatives or sales were disclosed. Given the small dollar value and routine nature, I classify the filing as neutral for valuation and liquidity. Investors typically watch for sizeable cash purchases or sales; this event lacks that signaling power.
