FUL FULLER H B CO Insider Trading

CEO Mastin Celeste Beeks buys 5,170 shares of FUL at $57.08, raising stake 147.7% to 8,670 shares ($295.1K)

CEO Mastin Celeste Beeks purchased 5,170 shares at $57.08 on 2026-04-07, substantially increasing his FUL holdings from 3,500 shares to 8,670 shares — a 147.7% increase. This open-market buy represents a meaningful personal capital commitment of $295,103.60 by the company's top executive. His prior trade at FUL on 2025-04-01 delivered a +6.2% 90-day return, demonstrating successful timing in this ticker previously. Set against a backdrop of annual revenue decline (-2.7% YoY) and current stock price 14.4% below its 52-week high, this purchase by the CEO warrants investor attention as a concrete signal of senior management's conviction in the company's direction.

CFO John J Corkrean sold 14,222 shares of FUL at $60.31; stock now $59.93, down 24.4% from 52-week high

John J Corkrean, Executive VP and CFO of Fuller, sold 14,222 shares at $60.31 for $857,764.38, reducing his holdings from 68,868 shares to 54,646 shares (a 20.7% reduction). The stock currently trades at $59.93, near the transaction price, and has declined 24.4% from its 52-week high of $79.33, though it is up 3.1% over the past 30 days and 5.0% over the past 90 days. The company's P/E of 28.27 sits above typical market averages, while annual revenue growth is modest at 1.6%. The sale represents a substantial reduction in the CFO's direct ownership stake and occurs within a context of constrained recent performance relative to the stock's recent peak.

East James J. (EVP, HHC) purchased 31 shares of FUL at $58.62 on 2025-09-26, adding to 2,822 holdings.

East James J. purchased 31 shares of H.B. Fuller at $58.62, a modest transaction representing a 1.1% increase to his 2.8K-share holdings. The purchase occurred near the stock's 52-week low of $48.43, with the current price at $58.47 showing -28.8% decline from the 52-week high of $82.09. While the trade coincides with depressed valuation, the insider's historical trading pattern at FUL shows 2 prior sales (both on 2024-04-08) that were well-timed at the 90-day mark, suggesting he has previously exited ahead of declines—a contrasting signal to a new buy. The transaction remains small in absolute terms and insufficient to offset the stock's recent -4.2% 30-day and -5.6% 90-day price deterioration.

VP Robert J Martsching sold 9,546 shares of FUL at $64.30 (July 10); holds 14,979 shares (-38.9%).

Martsching sold roughly 39% of his holding in a single open-market transaction, reducing his stake from 24,525 to 14,979 shares for $613,851.71. His prior sell at this ticker (July 2024) posted a 90-day return of -3.5%, indicating the stock declined after that sale—a favorable outcome for the timing of his prior exit. However, the current price of $63.23 is now 26.6% below the 52-week high of $86.20, and the stock has risen 11.8% in the past 30 days and 17.7% over 90 days, suggesting near-term momentum after this sale. The company's valuation (P/E 33.10) and modest annual revenue growth of 1.6% provide limited fundamental tailwinds, leaving the signal dependent on whether this sale reflects a near-term view or is simply a portfolio adjustment by an executive who still retains 15,000 shares.

CEO Mastin Celeste Beeks purchased 3.5K shares of FUL at $56.66 on 2025-04-01 for $198.3K, establishing initial position.

Mastin Celeste Beeks, President and CEO, acquired 3,500 shares at $56.66 on 2025-04-01, representing an initial equity stake in the company he leads. The purchase price of $56.66 sits near the lower half of the 52-week range ($52.88–$86.20), occurring during a period when the stock is down 15.3% over 90 days and 33.7% from its 52-week high. Fuller operates with a P/E of 27.49 and reported quarterly revenue of $788.7M with net income of $13.2M, though annual growth has slowed to 1.6% year-over-year. The establishment of an initial CEO position in company equity warrants attention regarding management's confidence in near-term performance and capital allocation strategy.

Sr. VP Campe Heather sold 23.7K FUL shares at $82.66 on 2024-07-12; holdings reduced 54.6%.

Heather sold 23,696 shares representing 54.6% of her pre-transaction holdings, reducing her stake from 43,437 to 19,741 shares at $82.66 per share. Her prior two sales at FUL (2024-01-24 and 2023-07-05) were both well-timed at the 90-day mark, with negative 90-day returns of -1.2% and -2.6% respectively, indicating these earlier sells preceded stock declines. However, cross-ticker track record shows an average 90-day return of -1.9% across 2 prior sells with a 100.00% well-timed rate. The stock now trades at $83.21, near its 52-week high of $83.21, and has gained 7.5% over 30 days and 10.7% over 90 days since the July transaction. Fundamentals show annual revenue declined 6.4% year-over-year, while the company maintains a P/E of 27.55 on $51.3M net income against $917.1M quarterly revenue.

VP Martsching sells 7,292 FUL shares at $80.95; stock near 52-week high of $83.21; holdings reduced 34.5%.

Robert J Martsching, VP and Corporate Controller, sold 7,292 shares at $80.95 on 2024-07-12, reducing his holdings by 34.5% from 21,123 to 13,831 shares. The transaction occurred near FUL's 52-week high of $83.21, with the stock up 7.5% over the prior 30 days and 10.7% over 90 days. The company's fundamentals show mixed signals: revenue declined 6.4% year-over-year, though net income for the latest quarter stood at $51.3M on $917.1M revenue, with a P/E of 27.55. The significant reduction in the VP's stake warrants attention given the scale of the sale and the proximity to recent highs, though the transaction details alone do not establish the underlying rationale.
