Chen Xiaohuan 4

What Happened
Chen Xiaohuan, a director of Qfin Holdings, acquired American Depositary Shares (ADS) in open-market transactions and purchased derivative positions that reduced a prior short put exposure. The filing shows purchases of 190,000 ADS on 2026-03-27 at $12.89 each (total $2,449,100) and 60,000 ADS on 2023-03-31 at $12.48 each (total $748,800). The Form 4 also reports derivative acquisitions (reported values $243,540 and $281,160) tied to put option positions; footnotes indicate these transactions reduced a prior short position in put contracts down to zero.

Context
These are purchases (open-market buys and derivative buys to close short put obligations). Purchases by insiders are often watched by retail investors as potentially bullish signals, but the filer disclaims beneficial ownership of many positions held by the fund he helps manage — indicating much of the activity is institutional/fund-related rather than purely personal trading. The derivative entries relate to put option positions (reducing prior short obligations) rather than exercises of incentive grants.
