Foolish take
Alberto Horihuela is currently FuboTV's chief operating officer (COO), but he is also a co-founder with a long history with the company. He has previously held positions as chief growth officer as well as chief marketing officer. A large share sale from such an entrenched insider might raise investor's eyebrows.
But there was a good reason for this transaction. Horihuela sold the stock solely to cover taxes from the vesting of restricted stock units (RSUs). The sale instructions were initiated in May 2023 and are standing through the vesting of future RSUs as well.
The company, in fact, is in an exciting time. Fubo recently combined with The Walt Disney Company’s Hulu + Live TV business. Shareholders should have no fear that Fubo's COO has a new concern with the new business structure.
This share sale was strictly for tax management purposes.
