Key questions
- How does the size of this transaction compare to Santos’s previous sales?
The 6,524 shares sold represent the smallest of Santos’s last three open-market sales, which have ranged from 6,524 to 10,466 shares, reflecting a decline in transaction size as his available holdings have decreased. - What proportion of Santos’s direct Common Stock holdings was impacted?
This sale accounted for 36.08% of his direct Common Stock holdings at the time of the transaction, a considerable reduction that aligns with his recent pattern of sizable proportional dispositions. - Were any indirect holdings or derivative securities involved?
No indirect or derivative positions were disclosed; all shares sold were held and disposed of directly by Santos, with no trust, LLC, or options activity reported in this filing. - What does this activity indicate about future capacity for similar transactions?
With post-sale direct holdings at 11,558 shares (about 23.4% of his year-ago position), the declining trade size is primarily a function of reduced share inventory, signaling that future sales may be smaller unless additional shares are acquired or vested.

What this transaction means for investors
Santos’s sale of more shares of Flywire stock is likely not a surprise for investors observing his behavior. He has made multiple share sales in the past.
Nonetheless, this transaction alone accounted for 36% of his holdings, and when considering past sales, it appears Santos has been a seller of his own company’s stock for some time. Also, that attitude might be understandable as the stock had lost around three-fourths of its value over the last five years.
However, given the improved metrics, one has to wonder whether Santos sold too much stock. During the last 12 months, the stock rose by 32%. Also, its price-to-sales (P/S) ratio is less than 3.
That is a bargain, considering its $188 million in revenue for the first quarter of 2026 was up 41%. It was also a significant spike from the 26% revenue growth for 2025. That growth occurred as it expanded into travel and hospitality and integrated its software with more systems.
Given the improved financial performance and Flywire’s growing presence in the marketplace, it looks more like a fintech stock to buy than one to sell right now.
