EQR EQUITY RESIDENTIAL Insider Trading

CFO Garechana buys 4 EQR shares at $69.81; adds minimal 0.0% to 14.1K-share holding

Robert Garechana, EVP and Chief Financial Officer of Equity Residential, purchased 4 shares at $69.81 on 2025-03-17, representing a total transaction value of $279.24. The purchase adds effectively zero percentage to his existing position of 14,108 shares (14.1K shares), increasing it to 14,112 shares (14.1K shares). The current stock price of $71.57 sits 8.3% below the 52-week high of $78.08, with the company showing solid fundamentals: $682.3M in latest quarterly revenue, $143.4M net income, and 4.8% annual revenue growth. This transaction is immaterial in size relative to the insider's existing stake and does not constitute a meaningful portfolio commitment or signal about the company's prospects.

EQR EVP Brackenridge Alexander sold 12,459 shares at $72.06 for $897,795.54 total

Brackenridge Alexander, EVP & CIO at Equity Residential, executed 2 separate sales totaling 12,459 shares for $897,795.54 on 2025-02-06, reducing his holdings from 94,968 shares to 82,509 shares (-13.1%). The sale occurred at $72.06 per share, near the current price of $71.33 and within the 52-week range of $58.13–$78.08. His prior EQR sale on 2024-08-22 posted a 90-day return of +1.9%, indicating the stock rose after that trade. This current sale is too recent to assess near-term timing, but the cross-ticker track record shows 0% of prior sells have been well-timed at the 90-day mark (i.e., prior sells were followed by gains rather than declines). The transaction size represents a material but not dominant reduction in his stake.

EQR EVP & COO Manelis sells 9,487 shares for $683,760.72 at $72.07 avg; holdings drop 26.2% to 26.8K shares

Manelis Michael L executed 3 separate sales totaling 9,487 shares for $683,760.72 on 2025-02-06, reducing his holdings from 36,268 shares to 26,781 shares—a 26.2% reduction. The blended average sale price of $72.07 sits modestly above the current price of $71.33 and within the 52-week range of $58.13–$78.08, indicating the sale occurred near recent levels. At a market cap of $27.1B and current trading multiples (P/E: 29.11), this is a material insider transaction from a senior operating executive, though the absolute position level suggests this was a partial portfolio action rather than a complete exit.

EQR CIO Brackenridge Alexander sold 11,212 shares at $72.52 on 2024-08-22; retains 58,689 shares post-transaction.

Brackenridge Alexander, Executive Vice President & CIO of Equity Residential, sold 11,212 shares at $72.52 on 2024-08-22 for a total value of $813,094.24, reducing his holdings by 16.0% from 69,901 to 58,689 shares. The transaction occurred near the 52-week high of $73.63, with the stock up 5.2% over the prior 30 days and 12.1% over 90 days. EQR is trading at a P/E of 29.10 with recent quarterly revenue of $682,329,000.00 and net income of $177,483,000.00, reflecting solid operational performance in a well-capitalized REIT. The sale represents a reduction in an already substantial executive position but does not signal complete liquidation, leaving Alexander with meaningful continuing exposure to the company.
