The activist group that had been pushing for board changes at Wearable Devices has completely exited its position, selling all remaining shares over two days for approximately $1.34 million. This follows a settlement announced on August 10 that included a board overhaul and a $12 million convertible debt commitment. The exit removes a significant overhang and ends the activist campaign, but the sales at prices ranging from $2.97 to $3.76 (near the current $2.96) suggest the group saw limited upside or wanted to lock in gains after the settlement. The company's market cap is only about $6.6 million, so the $1.34 million sale is substantial relative to the company's size.
