TAMPA, Fla., Sept. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AtlasClear Holdings, Inc. (NYSE American: ATCH) (“AtlasClear” or the “Company”), a company building regulated financial infrastructure for smaller institutions, fintechs and advisors, today announced that five members of its executive leadership and Board of Directors purchased an aggregate of 815,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with their personal funds in transactions executed on September 24 and 25, 2026.

According to Form 4s filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on September 28, the reporting persons were Executive Chairman John Schaible (100,000 shares); President Craig Ridenhour (100,000 shares); Chief Financial Officer and General Counsel Sandip Patel (100,000 shares); and directors Thomas Jon Hammond (500,000 shares) and Steven J. Carlson (15,000 shares). The aggregate transaction value was approximately $162,500, calculated using the prices reported in the filings. The shares were purchased by these individuals and were not awarded to them by the Company.

“These purchases reflect our confidence in AtlasClear and our continued alignment with AtlasClear shareholders as we execute on the Company’s strategic objectives,” said John Schaible, Executive Chairman. “Members of our leadership team and Board are shareholders alongside our investors, and we remain focused on building the business and creating long-term shareholder value.”

The Form 4s originally filed on September 28 contained an incorrect transaction code for the purchases, which initially coded the transactions as acquired as if granted to the directors by the Company. The amended Form 4s indicating the shares being acquired in open market purchases have been filed with the SEC as of this release.
