FORD SCOTT T 4

What Happened
Scott T. Ford, CEO of Westrock Coffee Co. (WEST), transferred (gifted) 55,000 shares of common stock to a trust on February 3, 2026. The Form 4 reports the shares as a gift (code G) at $0.00 per share (no cash consideration, total value $0). A gift is neither a market purchase nor sale and does not by itself indicate the insider's view on the stock.

Key Details

• Transaction date: February 3, 2026; Form 4 filed June 12, 2026 (filed well after the 2-business-day window — appears late).
• Transaction type and amount: Gift (G) of 55,000 shares at $0.00 per share; total reported value $0.
• Shares reported in filing after transfer: 55,000 shares are held of record by the trust (per footnote F1). The filing also discloses 23,263,104 shares held of record by Westrock Group, LLC (footnote F2). Depending on pecuniary interests and disclaimers, Mr. Ford may be deemed to have voting/investment power over the Westrock Group shares.
• Notable footnotes:
  • F1: 55,000 shares were transferred to a trust on Feb 3, 2026; Mr. Ford is trustee and disclaims beneficial ownership over trust shares to the extent he has no pecuniary interest.
  • F2: 23,263,104 shares are held of record by Westrock Group, LLC; Greenbrier Holdings, LLC manages Westrock Group, and Scott T. Ford is sole member/manager of Greenbrier, so he may be deemed to exercise control; he also disclaims beneficial ownership where no pecuniary interest exists.

Context
Gifts and intra-family trust transfers are often estate-planning or family-ownership moves and do not necessarily reflect trading sentiment. This filing also involves entities through which Mr. Ford exercises managerial/control relationships (Westrock Group / Greenbrier), so holdings and control can differ from direct beneficial ownership. The late filing is a compliance note for investors tracking timely insider disclosures.
