    πŸ“„ Summary

    JANAC K CHARLES, President and CEO at Arteris, Inc. (AIP), sold 100,000 shares on October 8, 2025, at an average price of $13.07, realizing proceeds of about ~$1,307,420.00. After the transaction, he now holds 161,759 direct shares and 9,689,071 indirect shares (Bayview Legacy, LLC) and 56,252 indirect shares (Charles and Lydia Janac Trust).

    πŸ”‘ Interpretation

    • Type: Comp-related (prearranged 10b5-1 trading plan)
    • Disposition: Shares were disposed (sold) pursuant to the 10b5-1 plan; executed in multiple transactions.
    • Size Context: 100,000 shares (~$1.31M) represents ~1% of the ~9.69M shares held indirectly via Bayview β€” modest relative to total beneficial ownership; appears routine profit-taking rather than a major divestiture.
    • ATH Metric: The sale executed at ~ $13.07. Relative to recent trading levels (last close near this level), this is not proximate to an obvious all-time high or all-time low and does not appear opportunistic relative to extreme price points; it aligns with ordinary market-range selling under a plan.
    • Outlier Check: Not unusually large compared to the holder’s total position and to typical 10b5-1 plan executions; no clear outlier detected.

    πŸ“Š Bullish or Bearish?

    Decide: Neutral β†’ Slightly Bearish

    Neutral β†’ Slightly Bearish. This is a planned sale (10b5-1) and the insider remains heavily invested via indirect holdings; the filing shows sales (code S) but they are prearranged and modest relative to total ownership, so it’s not a strong negative signal. Cluster activity cannot be determined from this filing alone.

    βœ… Bottom Line (Retail Takeaway)

    This transaction looks like routine profit-taking under a prearranged 10b5-1 plan rather than a bearish signal. For retail traders, it’s noise β€” not a standalone trade trigger unless corroborated by sizeable coordinated insider selling from multiple top executives.
