RH announced that Chairman & Chief Executive Officer Gary Friedman sold an aggregate of 125,000 shares of RH common stock from July 6, 2026 through July 8, 2026. Following this sale, Mr. Friedman retains beneficial ownership of 4,926,337 shares, representing beneficial ownership of approximately 23.88%(1) of RH’s common stock.
Mr. Friedman reported that the current sale of shares was made in order to fund (1) improvements to personal residences; and (2) the repayment of balances under personal line of credit borrowings.
Mr. Friedman’s last sales of shares of RH common stock in 2022 were made to pay the exercise price of his expiring IPO and July 2013 stock option grants and related tax obligations from the exercises. Prior to that, Mr. Friedman sold shares in December 2019, and in 2013. Mr. Friedman has reported purchases of shares of common stock in open market transactions on seven different occasions from September 2014 to June 2024.
Mr. Friedman stated: “I have been a buyer of RH shares for a significant period of time and have sold shares now solely to satisfy certain financial obligations. My shares continue to represent the largest ownership position in RH and the vast majority of my net worth, reflecting my continued commitment to RH and confidence in the Company’s strategy and growth prospects.”
A Form 4 and Schedule 13D/A will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with Mr. Friedman’s sale transaction.
