Porch Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRCH) reported a routine insider transaction on April 2, 2026, when CEO, Chairman and Founder Matt Ehrlichman sold 6,988 shares of common stock, according to a Form 4 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The sale was executed at a weighted average price of $6.9774 per share, yielding total gross proceeds of $48,758. Reported trade prices for the block ranged from $6.92 to $6.98 per share.
