BORRAS MARIA C Sell
Chief Growth & Experience Ofcr
60,626 shares
$3,302,298
@ $54.47
Significance 4/10

Chief Growth & Experience Officer Borras sells 60,626 shares of BKR at $54.47 for $3.3M, reducing stake by -39.7%.

Maria C. Borras, Chief Growth & Experience Officer, sold 60,626 shares (60.6K shares) on 2026-03-16 at $54.47, generating $3,302,298.22 ($3.3M) and reducing her post-transaction holdings to 92,035 shares (92.0K shares) from 152,661 shares (152.7K shares) — a -39.7% reduction in her stake. This sale occurred when BKR was trading -11.9% from its 52-week high of $65.26 and follows a 90-day appreciation of +29.3%, placing the trade after a significant run-up in price. Borras's same-ticker history at BKR shows mixed timing outcomes: of 4 prior sales with measurable 90-day results, only 2 were well-timed (negative 90d returns), suggesting inconsistent execution; her cross-ticker track record across all open-market sales shows a modest 90d well-timed rate of 33.33% with an average 90d return of +0.3%, indicating her sells have historically been slightly late in capturing reversals. The current price of $57.48 is 5.5% above the transaction price, and BKR's fundamentals show annual revenue growth of -0.3% with a P/E of 22.72, warranting observation of whether this large reduction signals a shift in conviction or reflects routine portfolio management.

Significance 6/10

Baker Hughes CEO Simonelli sells 272.6K shares ($16.0M) at $58.79; stock now $54.26, down 11.4% in 30 days

Simonelli Lorenzo, Chairman, President and CEO of Baker Hughes, sold 272,594 shares (272.6K shares) on 2026-03-11 at $58.79, reducing his holdings by -23.9% from 1.14M to 866.4K shares. The sale occurred near the stock's 52-week high of $65.26 (only -16.9% below), but the stock has since declined -11.4% over 30 days and trades at $54.26 as of the filing date, now -7.4% below the transaction price. His cross-ticker track record shows 6 prior sells with a 90-day well-timed rate of 40.00%, indicating his sales are correctly timed to precede declines less than half the time. At BKR specifically, his prior 4 measurable sells posted mixed outcomes: 1 of 4 achieved negative 90-day returns (well-timed), while 3 posted positive returns (poorly timed for selling). The company's fundamentals show $7.0B quarterly revenue with essentially flat annual growth (-0.3%), and a P/E of 21.45 suggests full valuation at the transaction price.

$16,663,610
@ $61.13
Significance 6/10

CEO Lorenzo Simonelli sold 272.6K BKR shares at $61.13 for $16.7M, reducing stake by -28.8%

Simonelli sold 272,593 shares (272.6K shares) of Baker Hughes at $61.13 on 2026-03-04, representing a substantial reduction of his holdings by -28.8% (from 945.4K to 672.8K shares). The sale occurred near the 52-week high, with the stock currently at $59.81, -8.4% from its peak of $65.26. Examining his ticker-specific history at BKR, only 2 of his 5 prior sales resulted in negative 90-day returns (well-timed sells), suggesting inconsistent predictive timing at this particular stock. His cross-ticker track record shows an average 90-day return of +4.7% following sells, with a 40.00% well-timed rate, indicating his sales historically underperform as timing calls. The scale of this single-transaction reduction—$16.7M and nearly one-third of his holdings in one day—is notable for a sitting CEO.

Moghal Ahmed Farhan Sell
EVP, Chief Financial Officer
18,102 shares
$1,107,661
@ $61.19
Significance 7/10

CFO Moghal Ahmed Farhan sells entire 18,102 share BKR position for $1.1M at $61.19; stock now near 52-week high of $61.39

Moghal Ahmed Farhan, Chief Financial Officer of Baker Hughes, executed a complete liquidation of his equity stake, selling 18,102 shares for $1,107,661.38 at $61.19 on 2026-02-12. The sale occurred within 0.3% of the 52-week high of $61.39 and follows a 25.6% gain over 90 days. The company reported $7.0B in quarterly revenue with $609.0M net income, though annual revenue growth is flat at -0.3%, and the stock trades at a P/E of 24.19. The complete elimination of his holdings—from 18,102 shares to zero—represents a material shift in his investment stance and is noteworthy given the proximity to recent highs and the current valuation environment.

Magno Maria Georgia Sell
Chief Legal Officer
19,150 shares

@ $59.11
Significance 6/10

CLO Magno Maria Georgia sold 19,150 shares of BKR at $59.11 on 2026-02-09 for $1.1M, reducing stake 56.8%.

Magno Maria Georgia, Chief Legal Officer, executed a substantial sale of 19,150 shares at $59.11, liquidating 56.8% of her Baker Hughes holdings and reducing her position from 33,738 to 14,588 shares. The sale occurred as BKR stock traded 0.0% below its 52-week high of $61.25, having rallied +27.7% over the prior 30 days and +28.9% over 90 days, suggesting the transaction took place near recent strength. While the company's fundamentals show solid quarterly profitability ($609.0M net income on $7.0B revenue), annual revenue growth is flat at -0.3%, and the stock trades at a P/E of 24.21. The magnitude of the reduction—more than half her holdings—represents a material shift in the CLO's direct ownership position.

Apostolides James E Sell

@ $59.74
Significance 5/10

Baker Hughes Chief Infra & Performance Ofcr sells 25,824 shares for $1,542,725.76 at $59.74

Chief Infrastructure & Performance Officer James E Apostolides executed 2 separate sales totaling 25,824 shares for $1,542,725.76 on 2026-02-10, reducing his holdings by 62.6% from 41,273 shares to 15,449 shares. The shares were sold at $59.74 per share, while the current stock price stands at $61.25, placing the transaction price below the 52-week high but in line with recent momentum (stock is +27.7% over 30 days and +28.9% over 90 days). The sale occurs within a company context of flat revenue growth (-0.3% year-over-year) despite strong profitability at the quarter level ($609.0M net income on $7.0B revenue) and a relatively elevated P/E of 24.21. This substantial reduction in executive holdings warrants examination of whether additional context regarding the officer's compensation structure, vesting schedules, or other factors influenced the timing and scale of the divestment.

BORRAS MARIA C Sell
Chief Growth & Experience Ofcr
54,434 shares

@ $59.11
Significance 4/10

Chief Growth & Experience Officer Maria C. Borras sold 54.4K shares of BKR at $59.11, reducing holdings by 37.2%

Maria C. Borras, Chief Growth & Experience Officer, executed a substantial sale of 54,434 shares on 2026-02-09 at $59.11, generating $3,217,593.74 in proceeds and reducing her stake by 37.2%. At her prior BKR trades, the insider's 90-day timing outcomes show mixed results: 2 of 5 prior sells were well-timed (stock declined post-sale), while 3 underperformed, including two consecutive January 2025 sales that preceded 90-day declines of -16.7% and -18.6%. The current stock price of $61.25 now sits at the 52-week high, having climbed +27.7% over the past 30 days and +28.9% over 90 days. This sale occurs near the stock's peak valuation, though BKR's fundamentals show modest headwinds: annual revenue growth of -0.3% and a P/E of 24.21 relative to a $7.0B quarterly revenue base.

Beattie William G Sell
18,023 shares
$1,032,538
@ $57.29
Significance 6/10

Director Beattie sells all 18,023 BKR shares at $57.29; complete position exit to zero holdings

Director William G Beattie executed a complete liquidation of his Baker Hughes holdings, divesting 18,023 shares representing 100.0% of his pre-transaction position for a total value of $1,032,537.67. The sale occurred at $57.29, just below the current price of $57.36 and only 3.1% below the 52-week high of $59.17, during a period of strong price momentum (30-day change: +16.2%; 90-day change: +19.8%). The complete exit of all director holdings—yielding zero shares post-transaction—removes insider financial alignment with the company despite Baker Hughes' solid fundamentals (P/E of 22.67, $609.0M quarterly net income, and $56.7B market cap), an event that warrants scrutiny of his reasoning and any pending disclosure.",

RAMASWAMY SREEGANESH Sell
EVP, Industrial & Energy Tech
25,000 shares
$1,250,000
@ $50.00
Significance 5/10

EVP Ramaswamy sold 25,000 shares of BKR at $50.00 for $1.2M; holdings reduced -38.2% to 40.5K shares

Sreeganesh, as EVP of Industrial & Energy Tech, executed a substantial reduction in his BKR position, divesting 25,000 shares (38.2% of pre-transaction holdings) at $50.00 per share. The transaction occurs within the 52-week range, at the high end ($50.10 current price vs $34.77–$50.10 range), and follows a strong recent price trajectory: +12.7% over 30 days and +31.6% over 90 days. His remaining stake of 40.5K shares remains material, suggesting continued economic interest in the company. The sale reflects a significant shift in his proportional ownership despite fundamentally sound metrics: the company reported $6.9B quarterly revenue, $701.0M net income, +9.1% annual revenue growth, and a reasonable 16.21 P/E valuation at a $49.4B market cap.

BORRAS MARIA C Sell
Chief Growth & Experience Ofcr
50,362 shares
$2,361,474
@ $46.89
Significance 4/10

Chief Growth & Experience Ofcr Maria Borras sold 50,362 shares of BKR at $46.89; holds 116,643 shares post-sale.

Maria Borras sold 50,362 shares (50.4K shares) at $46.89 on 2025-09-10, representing a 30.2% reduction of her pre-transaction holdings of 167,005 shares. At the time of sale, BKR was trading near the 52-week high of $48.85, approximately 4.8% below that peak. Her cross-ticker track record shows 5 prior sells with a 40% well-timed rate at the 90-day mark, while her 5 prior trades at BKR have produced mixed results: 2 of those 5 sales proved well-timed at 90 days (negative post-sale returns), while the most recent sale on 2025-06-09 showed +19.2% over 90 days—a poorly-timed outcome. The sale occurs as BKR's fundamentals remain solid with $6.9B in latest quarterly revenue, +9.1% annual growth, and a P/E of 15.05, suggesting the transaction reflects portfolio positioning rather than material deterioration in company performance.
