AST CFO sold 5,000 shares May 20

Andrew Martin Johnson, AST SpaceMobile’s chief financial officer and chief legal officer, disclosed the sale of 5,000 Class A common shares in a Form 4 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 21. The filing lists the transaction date as May 20 and the sale price as $90.25 per share, for a total value of $451,250 before fees. The disclosure was made through the standard Section 16 reporting process used by corporate insiders. The filing does not show Johnson leaving any executive or board role. The SEC document identifies him as a reporting person tied to AST SpaceMobile, the Midland, Texas-based satellite communications company. AST SpaceMobile’s investor relations filings page lists multiple insider filings in May, including Johnson’s Form 4. ### What exactly did Johnson sell? The SEC filing says Johnson sold 5,000 shares of AST SpaceMobile Class A common stock in an open-market transaction on May 20. At the reported price of $90.25, the trade amounted to $451,250. The Form 4 is the operative disclosure here because it records the date, share count and price directly with the SEC. Third-party market reports matched those figures after the filing appeared. ### How much stock did he still hold after the sale? The SEC filing shows Johnson beneficially owned 482,485 shares directly after the transaction. That remaining stake is listed in the same Form 4 table that reports the May 20 sale. That matters for context because insider-sale headlines often omit post-transaction ownership. In this case, the filing shows Johnson retained a substantial direct holding after selling the 5,000 shares. ### Did the filing say why the shares were sold? The SEC filing includes a footnote saying the sale was made primarily to cover anticipated tax liabilities. That language appears in the filing itself, rather than in a separate company statement. The footnote does not describe a change in Johnson’s employment status, board position or broader role at AST SpaceMobile. The filing is limited to ownership disclosure and related transaction details. ### Was this Johnson’s first recent AST SpaceMobile stock sale? Public SEC-tracking records show Johnson also reported a sale of 10,000 AST SpaceMobile shares in late November 2025. That earlier transaction was disclosed separately and is not part of the May 20 filing. AST SpaceMobile has also had other insider transactions this year. The company’s investor filings page shows additional Form 4 disclosures in May 2026, and public SEC aggregation sites list recent sales by other insiders as well. ### Where does this sit in AST SpaceMobile’s recent disclosure flow? AST SpaceMobile filed its quarterly report on Form 10-Q on May 11, 2026, according to the company’s investor relations page and the SEC’s EDGAR system. The company also filed an 8-K the same day and an S-8 registration statement on May 15. On May 21, the SEC posted Johnson’s Form 4 for the May 20 transaction. Investors tracking insider activity can find the next disclosures in AST SpaceMobile’s ownership filings and any subsequent Form 4s submitted by Johnson or other company insiders.
