Life360 co-founder and CEO Chris Hulls sells 1.2% stake

The news: Life360 co-founder and CEO Chris Hulls has sold 1.2% of the US technology company's shares as part of plans to diversify his personal wealth.

The numbers: Hulls will continue to own a 3.8% stake in the company following the sale.

The context: Hulls said the move is part of plans to diversify his financial holdings, having kept a "significant majority" of his wealth associated with the tracking app company.

He will donate over a third of the shares to a private foundation and donor-advised fund. Nearly 75% of Hulls' net worth will remain in Life360 equity and he has committed not to undertake certain additional sales in the next 12 months.

What they said: "I have recently returned from an extended break more excited than ever about the opportunities ahead for Life360, and with a renewed enthusiasm to lead the next chapter in the company's vision," said Hulls.

"At the same time I decided to activate my planned diversification, and these transactions will enable me to secure my family's future as well as creating a foundation to undertake philanthropic projects in my local community."
