Arqit Quantum Inc. (ARQQW)

Insider Trading Filed: 2026-05-06

Director Lefebvre d'Ovidio Manfredi disposed of 396 Business Combination Warrants across two transactions (328 on 05/04/2026 and 68 on 05/05/2026), indicating insider selling activity rather than accumulation.
The reporting person retains beneficial ownership of 633,630 Business Combination Warrants equivalent to 25,345.20 ordinary shares post-reverse split, demonstrating substantial ongoing stake in the company despite recent dispositions.
All transactions are indirect holdings through Heritage Assets SCSp and are exempt from Section 16(b) short-swing profit rules due to Arqit's foreign private issuer status, limiting the regulatory significance of the sales timing.
The warrant exercise price of $11.50 (pre-reverse split adjustment to $287.50 per whole share) appears significantly above recent trading levels, suggesting these warrants may be underwater and the dispositions could reflect liquidity needs rather than confidence signals.

Director Lefebvre d'Ovidio disposed of 967 Business Combination Warrants on 04/29/2026, representing a warrant exercise or sale rather than new acquisition, which could indicate either portfolio rebalancing or profit-taking.
The reporting person retains significant beneficial ownership of 655,853 Business Combination Warrants (equivalent to 26,234.12 ordinary shares post-reverse split), demonstrating substantial continued stake in the company despite the disposal.
The transaction is exempt from Section 16(b) short-swing profit rules due to Arqit's foreign private issuer status under Rule 3a12-3(b), limiting the insights available to public investors regarding insider trading patterns and timing.
The warrant exercise price of $11.50 per warrant (or $287.50 per whole share after accounting for 25-warrant bundle requirement) represents a potentially significant out-of-the-money position depending on current market price, suggesting the director's warrants may have limited immediate exercise value.

Director Lefebvre d'Ovidio divested 462 Business Combination Warrants across two transactions (41 on 04/27/2026 and 421 on 04/28/2026), suggesting insider selling rather than accumulation of company equity.
The reported person beneficially owns 680,021 Business Combination Warrants equivalent to 27,200.84 ordinary shares post-reverse split, indicating substantial but indirect ownership through Heritage Assets SCSp.
All transactions involve warrant exercises at elevated exercise prices ($287.50 per share equivalent), which may indicate the insider is liquidating positions rather than demonstrating confidence in near-term stock appreciation.
As a foreign private issuer, the reporting person is exempt from short-swing profit restrictions (Sections 16(b) and 16(c)), reducing scrutiny on the timing and nature of these insider transactions.

Director Lefebvre d'Ovidio disposed of 387 Business Combination Warrants across two transactions (182 on 04/23/2026 and 205 on 04/24/2026), signaling insider selling rather than buying activity.
The warrant dispositions occurred at significantly different implied exercise prices ($3.30 and $2.90 per warrant), suggesting market volatility or strategic timing around the 09/03/2026 expiration date.
The reporting person retains 691,582 Business Combination Warrants worth approximately 27,663 ordinary shares post-reverse split, indicating substantial remaining insider exposure to the company despite recent sales.
As a foreign private issuer, Lefebvre d'Ovidio's transactions are exempt from Section 16(b) short-swing profit rules, potentially allowing more flexible trading patterns than typical U.S. insider transactions.

Director Manfredi Lefebvre d'Ovidio sold 458 Business Combination Warrants across two transactions (04/17 and 04/20/2026) at declining prices ($3.10 and $2.80), suggesting potential weakness in warrant valuations or strategic liquidation by an insider.
The reporting person maintains substantial indirect beneficial ownership of 713,376 Business Combination Warrants through Heritage Assets SCSp, equivalent to 28,535.04 ordinary shares if fully exercised, indicating continued significant economic interest despite recent sales.
The company's foreign private issuer status exempts this insider from short-swing profit rules (Sections 16(b) and 16(c)), removing typical constraints on insider trading timing and potentially allowing more flexible position management.
The warrant sales occurred shortly after the reporting date (transactions within 3 days of filing), representing a modest portfolio adjustment rather than a major exit, with the insider retaining the majority of warrant holdings.
