2MASS J04372171+2651014 is a small, cool red dwarf of spectral type M V, lying 419 light-years away. It is a very young star, with an age of 0.0025 billion years. Its mass is 0.17 solar masses, its radius is 0.84 solar radii, and its temperature is 3100 K - all smaller or cooler than the Sun. One planet is known to orbit this host.
That planet, 2M0437 b, was discovered by imaging in 2021. Its mass is 1270 Earth masses, roughly 4 times Jupiter's mass and larger than Earth's; no orbital period is reported for it.
