CuriosityStream (CURI) CFO Hayden Brady Vests RSUs, Gifts Shares

What Happened Hayden Phillip Brady, Chief Financial Officer of CuriosityStream (CURI), had 17,500 restricted stock units (RSUs) vest on July 24, 2026 (first anniversary tranche of a 70,000 RSU grant). The vested RSUs converted into 17,500 common shares. To cover taxes, 7,836 shares were withheld at $2.35 per share (total ~$18,415). On July 27, 2026, 9,664 shares were transferred to the P. Brady Hayden Revocable Trust as an exempt gift; Brady is the trustee and sole beneficiary and therefore remains the beneficial owner of those shares.

Context This was a routine vesting event (award settlement) rather than an open-market sale or new purchase. The tax withholding is a common administrative disposition and the trust transfer is an exempt gift to a revocable trust where Brady remains the beneficiary, so these moves do not necessarily signal a change in his economic exposure to the company.
