Douglas G. Rogers, a director of Atlas Energy Solutions Inc. (AESI), purchased 7,000 shares in open-market transactions on May 14, 2025 at a weighted average price of $13.27 per share, for a total of approximately $92,862. This filing is an amendment (filed March 6, 2026) that also discloses the Reporting Person's beneficial interest in 12,536 shares underlying restricted stock units (RSUs) granted March 13, 2025.
Key Details
- Transaction date: May 14, 2025 (open-market purchase). Amended Form 4 filed: March 6, 2026.
- Price: Weighted average $13.27; actual trade prices ranged $13.2632–$13.2691 (footnote F1).
- Quantity/value: 7,000 shares acquired; approx. $92,862 total.
- RSUs disclosed: 12,536 shares underlying RSUs awarded March 13, 2025 were added via this amended filing (footnote F2).
- Beneficial ownership/disclaimer: Reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of RSU shares except to the extent of any pecuniary interest; pursuant to an Outside Compensation Agreement (Nov 15, 2023), vested RSU shares will be transferred to The Sealy & Smith Foundation for no consideration (footnote F3).
- Ownership after transaction: The filing does not state a consolidated total of common shares owned post-transaction beyond the disclosed RSUs.
- Filing status: This is an amended Form 4 correcting an earlier omission (original Form 4 filed May 16, 2025); the amendment was filed later (Mar 6, 2026).
Context
- Purchase vs. transfer: The 7,000-share purchase is a straightforward open-market buy (a direct purchase by the director). The disclosed RSUs are subject to transfer to a charitable foundation upon vesting, so they are not held for the director’s personal long-term ownership in the usual sense.
- 10% owner group: The filer is noted as a member of a 10% owner group, which may reflect affiliation with a larger shareholder group rather than purely individual insider trading.
- Investor takeaways: A director buy is generally considered informative by retail investors, but note the RSUs will be transferred to a foundation and the Form 4 was amended months later to disclose the RSU interest.
