? NEUTRALIMPACT 3/10 SC 13D/A filed Nov 3, 2026 at 18:10 ET
Ernest C. Garcia II, Carvana's founder and controlling stockholder, filed Amendment No. 40 to his Schedule 13D, reporting that his wholly owned entity ECG II SPE II, LLC sold covered call options on 10,000,000 Carvana shares (strike $90, expiring November 2027) to Citibank. Garcia's beneficial ownership remains unchanged at 212,211,585 shares (22.7% on an as-converted basis). The covered call transaction generates option premium income for Garcia but caps upside on those shares above $90 and introduces counterparty risk via a pledge of 12,500,000 Class A Units and 10,000,000 Class B shares as collateral.
- Ernest C. Garcia II beneficially owns 212,211,585 Carvana shares (22.7% on an as-converted basis), unchanged from prior filing.

- Garcia retains voting and dispositive power over the pledged securities during the option term, subject to Citibank's rights upon default.
