AVT AVNET INC Insider Trading

AVT CFO Kenneth Jacobson sold 12,000 shares ($1.0M) at $85.26; holds 40,968 shares post-sale amid +27.6% 90-day gain.

Kenneth A Jacobson, AVT's Chief Financial Officer, sold 12,000 shares (22.7% of his pre-transaction holdings) for $1,023,120.00 on 2026-05-22 at $85.26. The stock has appreciated significantly in the trailing period: +13.6% over 30 days and +27.6% over 90 days, currently trading at $85.91 near its 52-week high of $87.46. His prior single open-market transaction at AVT was a buy on 2025-11-07, which returned +37.5% at the 90-day mark. However, this current sale comes after substantial recent gains, and the company's fundamentals show mixed signals: annual revenue has contracted 6.6% year-over-year, though the stock carries a elevated P/E of 32.92 relative to net income of $94.3M on $7.1B in quarterly revenue. The timing—selling after the stock has already captured significant upside—differs materially from his prior favorable entry pattern at this ticker.

CEO Philip R Gallagher sold 23,920 shares of AVT at $82.92 for $1,983,446.40; retains 168,923 shares post-sale.

Philip R Gallagher, CEO of Avnet Inc, sold 23,920 shares at $82.92 on 2026-05-05, reducing his non-derivative holdings by 12.4% to 168,923 shares. The sale occurred while the stock trades at $90.59, approximately 4.9% below its 52-week high of $95.26. His prior sales at Avnet have not demonstrated consistent well-timed execution: none of his 3 prior AVT sales resulted in negative 90-day returns (the marker of successful exit timing for sales), with 90-day outcomes of +27.4%, +2.2%, and +3.4% respectively. The company shows mixed fundamentals—$7.1B in latest-quarter revenue alongside -6.6% annual revenue growth and a P/E of 34.71—suggesting sector or operational headwinds despite the stock's recent 51.7% 90-day gain.

CEO Gallagher sells 46.1K AVT shares at $67.42 (at 52-week high); stock at peak following +42.6% 90-day rally.

GALLAGHER PHILIP R, Chief Executive Officer, sold 46,068 shares at $67.42, reducing his holdings from 214,991 to 168,923 shares (-21.4%). The sale occurred precisely at the 52-week high of $67.34 (transaction price $67.42), in the immediate aftermath of a substantial rally: the stock posted +31.1% over 30 days and +42.6% over 90 days prior to the transaction. His prior three sales at AVT (May 2024, May 2023) produced mixed 90-day returns: -4.2%, +3.4%, and +10.8%, with none meeting the threshold of negative return that would indicate well-timed selling. His cross-ticker track record across 3 prior sales shows an average 90-day return of +5.5%, a well-timed rate of 0.00%, and an average 30-day return of +5.5%, suggesting his sales historically have not preceded declines. The timing of this sale—at peak valuation in a stretched rally—presents a factual contrast to his historical selling pattern at this ticker and in aggregate, warranting examination of whether execution circumstances differ materially from prior periods.

SVP Michael Ryan sold 36,292 shares of AVT at $65.48; held 76,674 shares post-transaction, reducing stake 32.1%

McCoy Michael Ryan, SVP and General Counsel, sold 36,292 shares (36.3K shares) on 2026-02-17 at $65.48, reducing his post-transaction holdings to 76,674 shares (76.7K shares) from a pre-transaction position of 112,966 shares (113.0K shares). The sale represents a material reduction of 32.1% of his prior holdings, executed at a price near recent highs—just 1.9% below the 52-week high of $66.62. The transaction occurs in a context of strong recent price momentum: +28.6% over 30 days and +47.3% over 90 days. However, the company is navigating operational headwinds, with annual revenue declining 6.6% year-over-year, though the stock has recovered significantly from its 52-week low of $41.51. This substantial reduction in the General Counsel's stake warrants monitoring of company-specific developments that may have prompted the sale.

SVP/CIO Chan Leng Jin sold 9,226 shares of AVT at $61.53; retains 40,776 shares post-transaction

Chan Leng Jin executed a discretionary sale of 9,226 shares representing 18.5% of pre-transaction holdings, reducing his stake from 50,002 to 40,776 shares. The sale price of $61.53 occurred when the stock was trading 0.5% below its 52-week high of $63.31, within a 30-day uptrend of +27.7% and 90-day appreciation of +31.2%. Notably, AVNET's fundamentals show annual revenue declining 6.6% year-over-year despite a P/E of 24.90 and quarterly net income of $61.7M, signaling a disconnect between near-term price momentum and revenue trajectory. The substantial reduction in insider holdings by a senior technology executive (SVP, CIO) warrants attention given the company's negative revenue growth trend, though the executive retained a meaningful 40,776-share position indicating continued material ownership.

CFO Kenneth A Jacobson buys 2,139 shares of AVT at $46.75; holdings rise to 36,033 shares amid -6.6% revenue decline

Kenneth A Jacobson, the CFO, purchased 2,139 shares worth $99,998.25 at $46.75 on 2025-11-07, increasing his holdings from 33,894 to 36,033 shares. The transaction occurs against a backdrop of headwinds: Avnet's annual revenue contracted 6.6% year-over-year, the stock trades 17.6% below its 52-week high of $57.17, and the price has declined 4.9% over the past 30 days. The CFO's purchase of a meaningful position at a depressed relative valuation warrants attention, though the modest 6.3% increase in his personal holdings does not unambiguously indicate conviction about near-term upside given the operational revenue pressure.
