CRUS CIRRUS LOGIC, INC. Insider Trading

EVP R&D Baumgartner sells 11,171 shares of CRUS at $171.65 via scheduled 10b5-1 plan; retains 17,575 shares.

Jeffrey W Baumgartner, EVP of R&D at Cirrus Logic, sold 11,171 shares on 2026-05-29 at $171.65 per share ($1.9M total) as part of a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on 2026-02-27—a scheduled transaction, not a discretionary decision. The sale reduced his non-derivative holdings by 38.9%, from 28.7K to 17.6K shares. His cross-ticker track record across 4 prior open-market sales shows an average 90-day return of +2.2%, while his same-ticker history at CRUS (4 prior sales) shows mixed outcomes ranging from +0.9% to +5.9% at the 90-day mark. Cirrus Logic trades at a P/E of 17.74 with recent quarterly net income of $140.3M on $580.6M revenue (+5.3% annual growth). The stock is currently -5.4% from its 52-week high of $180.42, having risen +23.8% over the past 90 days.

CEO Forsyth sells 5,000 shares for $852K, his second open-market disposition in 36 months as stock rallies from lows.

John Forsyth, CEO of Cirrus Logic, sold 5,000 shares for approximately $852,000 on this transaction, representing his second open-market sale in the past three years. The company remains profitable with growing revenue, trading approximately 1.4% below its 52-week high after a strong rally that has lifted the stock more than 20% over the past three months. Forsyth's prior sale earlier this year proved well-timed over a one-month horizon as the stock declined immediately afterward, though the stock subsequently recovered and gained significantly over a longer timeframe, making that exit poorly-timed from a broader perspective. This current sale occurs as the stock has gained momentum from depressed levels, which contrasts with his prior sale at different price levels; without his purchase history available, it's unclear whether he is trimming gains or rebalancing an established position. The sale represents a modest reduction—approximately 6.7% of his holdings—rather than a wholesale exit, suggesting a measured approach to liquidity management rather than a broad loss of confidence in the business.

EVP Thomas Scott sold 9,942 shares of CRUS at $160.11 for $1,591,813.62, reducing holdings by 24.6% to 30,393 shares.

Thomas Scott, EVP and General Counsel of Cirrus Logic, sold 9,942 shares at $160.11 on 2026-04-09, representing a 24.6% reduction in his holdings. The transaction occurred at the 52-week high of $160.00, coinciding with significant near-term price momentum: the stock gained 18.2% over 30 days and 31.4% over 90 days prior to the sale. Scott's cross-ticker track record shows a 50.00% well-timed rate on prior sells (higher = better), though his same-ticker history at CRUS is mixed: his prior two sales achieved 3.8% and 13.4% returns over 30 days, with only 1 of 2 well-timed at the 90-day mark. The fundamental backdrop shows the company generating $580.6M in quarterly revenue with $140.3M net income and a reasonable P/E of 20.20, suggesting the sale occurred from a position of strength rather than distress. The magnitude and timing merit monitoring, though the absence of coordinated insider activity and the company's solid financial metrics limit the urgency of the signal.

CEO Forsyth sold 21,806 shares of CRUS at $135.15 on 2026-02-04 for $2.9M; stock now at $142.78.

Forsyth John, the CEO, sold 21,806 shares representing a 22.5% reduction in his holdings, bringing his position from 96,822 shares to 75,016 shares. The sale occurred at $135.15 per share, and the stock has since risen to $142.78 (current price), placing the transaction price 5.4% below the current market level. With the stock already at its 52-week high of $142.78, the timing of this sale relative to recent momentum (+19.3% over 30 days, +20.4% over 90 days) warrants attention. While CIRRUS LOGIC maintains solid fundamentals—$580.6M quarterly revenue, $140.3M net income, and a reasonable 18.03 P/E ratio—the decision by the CEO to divest a meaningful portion of holdings coincides with the stock reaching peak valuation levels.

EVP Brannan Andrew sells 8,913 shares at $119.06 avg ($1.1M) via 10b5-1 plan; 60% reduction to 6.0K shares

Brannan Andrew, EVP Worldwide Sales, executed 3 separate sales totaling 8,913 shares for $1,061,184.42 under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on 2025-08-15. The sales reduced his holding from 14,863 shares to 5,950 shares, representing a 60.0% reduction in his pre-transaction position. Because this transaction is part of a scheduled 10b5-1 plan rather than a discretionary trade, it reflects a pre-commitment to divest rather than a response to current market conditions or company fundamentals.

EVP General Counsel Thomas Scott sold 11,089 shares of CRUS at $121.49 for $1.3M, reducing holdings by 29.7% to 26.3K shares.

Thomas Scott, the EVP and General Counsel of Cirrus Logic, executed a substantial sale of 11,089 shares on 2025-09-18, reducing his holdings from 37.4K to 26.3K shares—a 29.7% reduction in post-transaction holdings. The sale occurred at $121.49 per share when the stock was trading 7.8% below its 52-week high of $133.17, and the current price of $122.75 sits near the transaction price. His cross-ticker track record shows 1 prior sell with an average 90-day return of +8.5%, indicating his prior sale was poorly timed relative to subsequent stock performance; at CRUS specifically, he has one prior sale (2024-06-12) that also showed a +8.5% 90-day return—again, poorly timed. The company reports solid fundamentals with $407.3M in quarterly revenue, $60.7M in net income, and a reasonable 18.00 P/E ratio, with annual revenue growth of 6.0%.

EVP Jeffrey W. Baumgartner sold 9,162 shares of CRUS at $120.00 for $1,099,440.00

EVP R&D Jeffrey W. Baumgartner executed 3 separate sales totaling 9,162 shares for $1,099,440.00 at a blended average price of $120.00 on 2025-09-17, reducing his holdings from 23,163 shares to 14,001 shares (a -39.6% reduction). The stock currently trades at $122.75, slightly above his execution price, and has gained 8.5% over the past 30 days and 17.6% over 90 days despite trading -7.8% from its 52-week high. His prior sell activity at CRUS on 2025-09-02 lacks measurable 90-day outcome data, and his cross-ticker track record shows only 1 prior sell with no well-timed pattern established. The substantial reduction in his holdings warrants monitoring against upcoming company communications or operational updates.

EVP R&D Baumgartner sells 10,000 CRUS shares at $111.78; holds 14,001 remaining (-41.7% from pre-transaction holdings).

Baumgartner, serving as EVP of R&D at Cirrus Logic, sold 10,000 shares for $1,117,811.00 on 2025-09-02 at $111.78 per share, reducing his direct ownership stake from 24,001 to 14,001 shares. The stock is currently trading at $113.16, reflecting a 30-day gain of +7.2% and 90-day gain of +13.1% despite being -22.3% from its 52-week high of $145.69. The company trades at a P/E of 16.59 with recent quarterly revenue of $407,272,000.00 and net income of $60,697,000.00, supported by annual revenue growth of +6.0%. The -41.7% reduction in this executive's holdings represents a material decrease in his direct equity stake, which warrants investor attention given his R&D leadership role and the company's semiconductor focus.

SVP Global Operations Justin Dougherty sells 10,203 shares at $131.71 avg, reducing CRUS stake by 67.8% to 4,838 shares.

Justin E Dougherty, SVP Global Operations at Cirrus Logic, executed 5 separate sales on 2024-08-09 totaling 10,203 shares for $1,343,787.82, with a blended average price of $131.71. This sale reduces his holdings from 15,041 shares to 4,838 shares—a reduction of 67.8% of his pre-transaction position. The trade occurred at prices near the current level of $137.66 and within the 52-week range of $66.01–$142.65. The company is trading at P/E 27.21 with recent quarterly revenue of $374,026,000.00 and net income of $42,095,000.00, but faces a -5.7% annual revenue decline year-over-year. The material reduction in this executive's equity stake warrants investor attention given the scale of the divestiture and the company's softening revenue trajectory.
