Director Richmond C Bradford buys 1,000 BJRI shares at $34.05 amid -20.9% 30-day decline

Richmond C Bradford, a director, purchased 1,000 shares at $34.05 on 2026-03-12, increasing his holdings from 17,700 to 18,700 shares. The purchase occurs as BJRI trades at $33.73, down 20.9% over the past 30 days and 27.9% from its 52-week high of $46.78, placing the stock in a sharply depressed price regime relative to recent history. Bradford's same-ticker history shows 5 prior trades, including two measurable buy outcomes from September 2024 that posted +19.2% and +17.2% 30-day returns respectively, though the three most recent purchases on 2026-03-06 and 2026-03-03 lack outcome data. His cross-ticker track record demonstrates a 100% 90-day win rate across 5 prior buys with average 90-day returns of +24.5%, establishing a pattern of well-timed entries. The company maintains modest fundamentals with $330.2M quarterly revenue, $465.0K net income, and a P/E of 11.36, suggesting limited growth expectations in the current backdrop.

Director Greg Trojan sells 146,102 shares (88.0% of holdings) for $6.5M at $44.63 avg at BJRI peak

Greg Trojan, a director at BJs Restaurants Inc, executed 2 separate sales on 2025-05-16 totaling 146,102 shares for $6,520,367.04, reducing his holdings from 165,998 shares to 19,896 shares—a reduction of 88.0% of his pre-transaction position.

The substantial reduction in insider ownership—leaving him with only 19.9K shares—combined with the execution near the 52-week peak after a steep recent rally, represents a material exit event that merits investor scrutiny of the director's stated rationale and any forward-looking commentary from management.

Interim CEO Richmond C Bradford purchases 2,500 shares of BJRI at blended $29.40 average, bringing holdings to 16,905 shares

Interim CEO Richmond C Bradford executed two separate purchases totaling 2,500 shares for $73,500.00 on 2024-09-06 at prices of $29.10 and $29.60, increasing his holdings by 17.4% from 14,405 shares to 16,905 shares. The transactions occurred at prices near current levels ($29.52), within the 52-week range of $21.99–$38.13 but at a discount to the 52-week high of $38.13. For an interim CEO—a role typically filled during transitional periods—the acquisition warrants attention as a data point on insider behavior during leadership uncertainty, though interim tenure itself constrains inferences about conviction or long-term positioning relative to a permanent executive. The stock's 90-day decline of -13.5% and P/E of 23.43 provide market context but do not independently justify or contextualize the timing of this purchase.
