GMS GMS Inc. Insider Trading

Coliseum Capital Management liquidates 338,627 shares of GMS at $110.05 across 3 sales for $37.3M

Coliseum Capital Management, a 10% owner, executed 3 separate sales totaling 338,627 shares for $37,266,946.85 on 2025-07-14 through 2025-07-16, reducing holdings from 3,825,151 shares to 3,486,524 shares (-8.9% reduction). The sales occurred at a blended average price of $110.05, which matches the current price and the 52-week high, suggesting execution near peak valuation. However, the insider's cross-ticker track record shows a 0.00% well-timed rate on prior sells (meaning prior sales were followed by stock appreciation, not declines), and this sale follows a 30-day surge of +44.5% and 90-day appreciation of +55.7%, indicating the stock has appreciated materially before this liquidation. The company's fundamentals show negative net income of $-21,409,000 in the latest quarter against revenue of $1,260,710,000, with a 37.05 P/E ratio and minimal annual revenue growth of +0.2%, presenting a backdrop of profitability challenges during the recent price rally.

SVP/COO Hendren sold 5,000 GMS shares at $108.23; stock at 52-week high. Prior pattern: 2 of 2 GMS sells well-timed at 90 days.

Hendren George T, SVP and Chief Operating Officer of GMS Inc., sold 5,000 shares for $541,150.00 on 2025-06-30 at $108.23, reducing his holdings by 17.3% to 23,950 shares. The sale occurred at the 52-week high of $109.06 (current price reflects +0.0% from that level). GMS's fundamentals show mixed signals: the company generated $1,260,710,000.00 in quarterly revenue but posted a net loss of $21,409,000.00, with minimal annual growth of +0.2% and a high P/E of 36.72. Most notably, Hendren's prior two open-market sales at GMS (on 2024-11-11 and 2024-03-22) were both well-timed at the 90-day mark, with -17.7% and -12.5% declines respectively following those sales. This transaction follows a pattern of timely exits: investors should monitor whether the 30-day and 90-day returns after this sale validate the established timing pattern or mark a departure.

GMS CEO Turner buys 3,650 shares at $70.00; stock down -35.7% from 52-week high, trading at $66.73.

Turner John C JR, President and CEO of GMS Inc., purchased 3,650 shares at $70.00 on 2025-04-07, bringing his post-transaction holdings to 66,928 shares. The transaction occurs amid significant near-term deterioration: the stock has declined 9.8% over 30 days and 17.7% over 90 days, trading at $66.73 versus a 52-week high of $103.84 (-35.7% retreat). Fundamentally, GMS reported $-21,409,000.00 in net income against $1,260,710,000.00 in quarterly revenue, indicating operational strain. Turner's cross-ticker track record shows a 75.00% well-timed rate on his 4 prior open-market sells, but this buy is an isolated transaction type for him in recent history. The stock's substantial decline from recent highs and current unprofitability warrant close observation of whether this purchase reflects insider confidence or occurs independent of market conditions.

GMS SVP/COO Hendren sold 5,000 shares at $102.13; prior sale at GMS showed -12.5% 90d return

George T Hendren, SVP and Chief Operating Officer, sold 5,000 shares of GMS Inc. at $102.13 on 2024-11-11, reducing his holdings from 28.8K to 23.8K shares (-17.4%). The sale occurred near GMS's 52-week high of $103.21, with the stock currently trading at $101.42 after a +10.0% move over the prior 30 days. His prior open-market sale at GMS in March 2024 demonstrated a -12.5% 90-day return, indicating he sold before a subsequent price decline. However, this single data point at the specific ticker cannot establish a predictive pattern for the current transaction, and the stock's recent positive momentum warrants continued observation against near-term developments.

GMS CEO Turner sold 15,000 shares at $91.76 on 2024-09-18, reducing stake to 63,278 shares; stock down 10.1% from 52-week high.

Turner John C JR, President and CEO, executed an open-market sale of 15,000 shares (15.0K shares) at $91.76 on 2024-09-18, reducing his holdings by -19.2% to 63,278 shares (63.3K shares). The transaction occurred as GMS stock trades at $90.20, positioned -10.1% from its 52-week high of $100.38 and -3.4% over the past 30 days. Examining Turner's prior sales at GMS specifically, 2 of his 3 prior sells showed negative 90-day returns (post-sale declines), indicating a pattern of well-timed exits at this ticker. His cross-ticker track record shows a 66.67% well-timed sell rate across 3 prior sales, with a 2.6% average 90-day return, suggesting modest predictive consistency. The company's fundamentals remain relatively stable (P/E: 14.39, annual revenue growth +3.2%, net income $57.2M), so the sale does not appear driven by deteriorating business performance but rather reflects the CEO's assessment relative to current valuation.

GMS General Counsel Apolinsky sells 7.9K shares at $90.32; stock now at $89.95, off 10.4% from 52-week high

Craig D Apolinsky, SVP and General Counsel of GMS Inc., sold 7,900 shares on 2024-07-16 at $90.32 for $713,528.00, reducing his holdings from 18,571 to 10,671 shares—a 42.5% reduction in position. The sale occurred near the upper end of the 52-week range ($57.03–$100.38) and only 0.06 points below the transaction price relative to current market level ($89.95). Examining his track record at GMS specifically: of 3 prior sales, 2 came before meaningful gains (post-sale 90d returns of +8.1% and +19.2%), while only 1 of 3 prior GMS sales was well-timed at the 90-day mark. His cross-ticker track record shows a 33.33% well-timed rate on sells (1 of 3 correctly anticipating declines), suggesting below-average timing skill on open-market exit decisions. The modest 30-day post-transaction move (+0.1%) and negative 90-day trajectory (-0.3%) provide limited signal of prescience on this particular trade.
