What this transaction means for investors

The Navitas CFO sold the shares as part of the company’s policy that requires the sale of the minimum number of shares that are necessary to satisfy tax withholding obligations that arise from the vesting of a compensatory award. The reporting person, in this case Glickman, does not control the timing of such sales or the number of shares sold.

So, as an investor viewing this trade, it has nothing to do with the performance of the company and is not motivated by a negative outlook for the firm, which has been highly successful.

Last year, Navitas stock soared 100% to $7.14 per share as of Dec. 31, 2025. But at one point it surged to over $17 per share on Oct. 20, 2025. In 2026, Navitas stock is up 25% to around $9 per share. A major catalyst for Navitas is a partnership it formed with Nvidia (NVDA 0.05%) to provide the chipmaker with its gallium nitride (GaN) and silicon carbide (SiC) chips for use at AI data centers. It could provide a huge boost for Navitas starting in 2027.
