AE Industrial–Affiliated Holders Reduce Stakes in Redwire

Ownership positions can shift quickly, and this latest update shows how AE Industrial–affiliated investors adjusted their exposure to Redwire Corp. over a short window in January 2026.

A group of entities connected to AE Industrial Partners reported selling shares of the aerospace and defense company across two consecutive trading days, trimming their holdings while keeping a substantial position intact.

The transactions involved more than 2.6 million shares of Redwire common stock sold in the open market. The sales took place at prices slightly above $10 per share , calculated as weighted averages from multiple trades executed each day. While the activity was spread across numerous transactions, the reporting parties treated the sales as routine market activity rather than a single block trade.

Even after these sales, the AE Industrial–related entities collectively retained close to 81 million shares held indirectly. That remaining stake highlights the scale of their continued investment and suggests the transactions represented a measured adjustment rather than a broad exit.

Control over the shares is exercised through a layered ownership structure that includes multiple funds and holding companies managed by AE Industrial Partners. Within that structure, Michael Robert Greene and David H. Rowe share voting and investment authority through their leadership roles at the firm’s general partner. As is customary, each reporting person and entity clarified that they only claim beneficial ownership to the extent of their economic interest.

No derivative securities were involved in the reported activity. The disclosure also noted that the reported prices reflect averages across multiple trades, with the ability to provide more granular pricing details if requested.

Redwire operates at the intersection of aerospace manufacturing, space infrastructure, and advanced technology services for government and commercial customers. The company has attracted institutional interest as investment activity in the space sector continues to evolve.

Importantly, the ownership update does not point to changes in board representation or governance ties between Redwire and AE Industrial Partners. Affiliates of the firm remain significant shareholders, reinforcing that the relationship between the parties continues even as portfolio positions are adjusted.

Taken together, the transactions appear consistent with active ownership management. The AE Industrial–affiliated group reduced its stake modestly, maintained a large residual position, and preserved its governance involvement, signaling continuity rather than a shift in strategic direction.
