Key questions

  • What capacity constraints are evidenced by the transaction size and cadence?
    The 3,125-share sale matches Coghlan's median sell size over the last year, but as overall holdings have fallen by over 90% since July, the same absolute trade size now represents a much larger percent of remaining capacity, suggesting the persistence of a pre-set trading plan.
  • Were there any direct sales or only indirect entity activity in this filing?
    No direct shares were sold or gifted; the entire disposition occurred via indirect vehicles, specifically through trust-managed accounts as detailed in the filing’s footnotes.
  • How does the transaction price relate to recent and current market levels?
    The average sale price was $77.22 per share on Dec. 5, 2025, which was below the market open and close that day ($79.02 and $78.00, respectively); as of Dec. 12, 2025, Life360 shares closed at $67.57, an approximately 13.4% decrease from the Dec. 5 close price.

What this transaction means for investors

This stock sale by a Life360 executive took place under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted in December 2024, indicating pre-planned portfolio management rather than a reaction to company developments. The 3,125 shares were sold through trust-managed accounts on Dec. 5 for approximately $241,316, according to the SEC filing.

The timing comes after Life360's stock retreated sharply from its October high of $112.54, with the stock priced at approximately $77 at the time of the transaction. Despite the pullback, the family safety platform delivered record Q3 results in November, with revenue surging 34% year over year to $124.5 million and monthly active users reaching 91.6 million.

More significantly, Life360 announced a strategic $120 million acquisition of Nativo, an advertising technology company. The deal, anticipated to close in early 2026, will "create the leading, most effective location-based targeting and measurement platform," according to the company. Analysts maintain a strong buy rating on Life360 stock with an average price target near $100, reflecting confidence in the company's growth trajectory despite recent share price volatility.
