Weil Edward M Jr. Sell
CEO, President
150,000 shares
$1,141,500
@ $7.61
Significance 5/10

GNL CEO Weil sold 150,000 shares (20.4% of holdings) at $7.61 amid $-189.4M net loss.

Edward M Weil Jr., CEO and President, executed a substantial sale of 150,000 shares (150.0K shares) at $7.61 on 2025-07-10, reducing his holdings from 734,053 shares to 584,053 shares (a 20.4% reduction in stake). The transaction occurs within a complex financial backdrop: Global Net Lease recorded revenue of $132,415,000.00 in its latest quarter and achieved annual revenue growth of 56.3%, yet the company reported net income of $-189,379,000.00 with full-year losses. The current stock price of $7.39 is 17.5% below the 52-week high of $8.96, representing near the lower end of recent trading dynamics. This large CEO equity reduction requires investor attention given the simultaneous unprofitability and aggressive revenue expansion, which may signal capital redeployment or portfolio-level considerations rather than confidence in near-term recovery.

SCHORSCH NICHOLAS S Sell
7,403,000 shares
$55,004,183
@ $7.43
Significance 8/10

Nicholas S. Schorsch sells 7,403,000 shares for $55,004,182.60 at GNL; retains 19,607,384 shares after -27.4% position reduction.

Schorsch executed 2 separate sales totaling 7,403,000 shares for $55,004,182.60, reducing his stake by 27.4% and leaving post-transaction holdings of 19,607,384 shares. The sales occurred on 2025-06-12 at $7.43 and 2025-06-13 at $7.33—prices near the current level of $7.39 but well below the 52-week high of $8.96, indicating execution near a recent trough rather than at elevated valuations. Global Net Lease reported revenue of $132,415,000.00 in its latest quarter but remains fundamentally unprofitable with a full-year net income of $-189,379,000.00 and a market cap of $1,649,512,507.31. Despite 56.3% annual revenue growth, the company's negative earnings and depressed stock performance (-8.3% over 90 days, -17.5% from its 52-week peak) provide important context: an insider's substantial disposition of shares in a loss-generating company warrants attention to liquidity, refinancing, or operational visibility concerns.

SCHORSCH NICHOLAS S Sell
200,000 shares
$1,590,000
@ $7.95
Significance 5/10

10% Owner Schorsch sells 200,000 GNL shares at $7.95; retains 1,629,073 shares in unprofitable REIT.

Nicholas Schorsch, a 10% owner, sold 200,000 shares (200.0K shares) at $7.95 on 2025-04-03, reducing his stake by 10.9% from 1,829,073 to 1,629,073 shares. The transaction occurred while GNL stock is down 16.1% from its 52-week high of $8.96 and has fallen 9.0% over the past 30 days. Global Net Lease reported a -$65.6M net loss for its latest quarter against $196.6M revenue, and the company remains unprofitable on a full-year basis despite 56.3% annual revenue growth. Schorsch's cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior buys with an average 30-day return of -10.6%, indicating a historical pattern of entries into positions that subsequently decline. This sale by a substantial holder occurs in the context of operational losses and weak recent price action.

Significance 4/10

10% owner Schorsch buys 100,000 GNL shares at $7.72; stock down 9.6% in 30 days, -26.0% from 52-week high.

Nicholas Schorsch, a 10% owner of Global Net Lease, purchased 100,000 shares at $7.72 on 2024-11-11, increasing his holdings to 1,829,073 shares. The transaction occurs while GNL trades 26.0% below its 52-week high and has declined 9.6% over the past 30 days. Notably, Schorsch's prior buy at this ticker on 2024-10-02 underperformed with a 30-day return of -9.2%, while his same-ticker sales in June generated strong positive returns (+20.2% to +27.6% at 30 days), none of which proved well-timed at the 90-day mark. The company remains unprofitable on a full-year basis despite 36.0% annual revenue growth, creating a mixed fundamental backdrop for this buy.

@ $8.40
Significance 5/10

10% owner SCHORSCH NICHOLAS S purchases 100,000 shares of GNL at $8.40; holdings rise to 1,729,073 shares as company reports $-35.7M net loss vs $203.3M revenue.

SCHORSCH NICHOLAS S, a 10% owner, invested $840,000 to acquire 100,000 shares at $8.40, increasing his holdings by 6.1% to 1,729,073 shares on 2024-10-02. The purchase occurs at a price 16.2% below the 52-week high and follows a pattern of five prior sales at this ticker between 2024-06-21 and 2024-06-27, all of which proved poorly timed—the stock rose 19.5% to 27.6% over the subsequent 30 days and 20.2% to 24.8% over 90 days. His cross-ticker history shows 17 prior sells with an average 90-day return of +4.4%, indicating the insider has not historically timed sales well. Fundamentally, GNL reported a $-35.7M net loss in its latest quarter despite $203.3M in quarterly revenue and 36% annual revenue growth, painting a picture of an unprofitable though growing company. The buy at a depressed valuation relative to recent trading range provides context, but the juxtaposition with his unsuccessful prior exit attempts and the company's persistent losses warrants close observation of whether this accumulation marks a genuine conviction reposition or follows from calendar rebalancing.

@ $7.15
Significance 6/10

10% owner Schorsch sells 200,000 shares (10.9% reduction) at $7.15; stock down 35.8% from 52-week high.

Nicholas Schorsch, a 10% owner of Global Net Lease, sold 200,000 shares on 2024-06-27 at $7.15, reducing his holdings by 10.9%. The transaction occurs in a context of significant stock weakness: GNL trades 35.8% below its 52-week high of $11.44, though it has recovered 3.4% over the past 30 days. Schorsch's cross-ticker track record shows his 17 prior sells were well-timed 100.00% of the time, with an average 90-day return after sales of -21.3%, suggesting a pattern of exiting before declines. However, his prior five trades at GNL itself (all sales between 2024-06-20 and 2024-06-26) lack measurable outcomes, preventing assessment of whether this execution reflects similar timing precision at this specific ticker. The company's fundamentals remain challenged: net income was $-23,751,000.00 in the latest quarter despite revenue growth of 36.0%, and GNL was unprofitable over its most recent full fiscal year, creating an asymmetric risk profile where a 10% holder's successive dispositions merit attention.

@ $7.11
Significance 7/10

10% owner SCHORSCH NICHOLAS S sells 400,000 shares (17.9% of prior holdings) at $7.11–$7.19 amid -38.6% decline from 52-week high

Nicholas S. Schorsch, a 10% owner of Global Net Lease, Inc., executed 3 separate sales totaling 400,000 shares for $2,842,500.00 across June 24–26, 2024, at prices ranging from $7.02 to $7.19 (blended average $7.11). This represents a 17.9% reduction in his shareholding, from 2,229,073 to 1,829,073 shares post-transaction. The timing is notable: the stock is currently -38.6% below its 52-week high of $11.44 and has declined 5.5% over 30 days and 9.6% over 90 days from when the sales occurred. Schorsch's cross-ticker sell track record shows a 100.00% well-timed rate on 14 prior sales (90-day negative returns after selling), suggesting a pattern of exiting positions before declines; however, at GNL specifically, prior measurable outcomes are not yet available. The company reported a net income loss of $-23,751,000.00 in the latest quarter despite $206,045,000.00 in quarterly revenue and full-year net income that was negative, establishing a fundamental profitability concern that adds material context to the divestiture.

Significance 6/10

GNL 10% owner Schorsch sells 972,621 shares in 3 days for $7.0M at blended $7.15; exits 30.4% of stake

SCHORSCH NICHOLAS S, a 10% owner, executed 3 separate sales totaling 972,621 shares for $6,955,250.22 over three consecutive trading days (June 18–21, 2024) at prices ranging from $7.08 to $7.32, representing a 30.4% reduction in his GNL holdings from 3.20M to 2.23M shares. The stock is currently at $7.12, down 37.8% from its 52-week high of $11.44, and Schorsch's prior 11 open-market sells across all tickers show a 100.00% well-timed rate at the 90-day mark (his prior sells preceded price declines). At GNL specifically, his 2 measurable prior sells (February and January 2024) both proved well-timed at 90 days, posting -4.2% and -22.2% returns respectively. The company remains unprofitable (net income $-23.8M in the latest quarter), though annual revenue grew 36.0%, and the market cap stands at $1.6B. The large, deliberate stake reduction over a compressed timeframe, combined with the outsized selloff following his sales window, warrants investor attention to whether market conditions or operational developments have shifted.

Significance 7/10

10% owner Schorsch sells 504,778 shares ($3.7M) across 3 days; stock -37.2% from 52-week high, unprofitable fundamentals

SCHORSCH NICHOLAS S, a 10% owner, executed 3 separate sales totaling 504,778 shares for $3,652,820.90 (blended average $7.24) from June 13–17, 2024, reducing his holdings by 13.6%. The timing is noteworthy: his prior 5 trades at GNL were all well-timed sells, with the stock declining an average of 18.6% in the 90 days following each prior sale. GNL's fundamentals show revenue of $206,045,000.00 but net income of $-23,751,000.00 for the latest quarter, with the company unprofitable over its full fiscal year despite 36.0% annual revenue growth. The current stock price of $7.19 is 37.2% below the 52-week high of $11.44, and the stock has declined 7.5% over the past 30 days. His cross-ticker sell timing history shows a 100.00% well-timed rate, though at this specific ticker his track record of 5 prior sales all preceded material declines.
