This Form 4 details a substantial transfer of Forward Industries shares and warrants to Director Pyahm, valued at over $25 million. While not a direct market purchase, this transaction significantly increases the director's indirect beneficial ownership, representing nearly 8% of the company's market capitalization. This event is directly linked to Multicoin Capital Management's recent exit as a significant shareholder, with the shares being distributed from a fund previously managed by Multicoin. This shifts a large block of shares from institutional control to a key insider, potentially increasing their influence over the company's direction, especially in light of the company's recent massive net losses.
