Ronald Kyle Kettler Buy
Chief Financial Officer
6,000 shares
$30,480
@ $5.08
Significance 4/10

CFO Ronald Kyle Kettler buys 6,000 shares of GRNT at $5.08; stock down 27.7% from 52-week high, now at $4.86.

CFO Ronald Kyle Kettler purchased 6,000 shares at $5.08 on 2026-05-27, increasing his holdings to 129,276 shares (+4.9%). The purchase occurs while GRNT trades at $4.86, down 27.7% from its 52-week high of $6.72 and -18.7% over the prior 30 days. Kettler's prior two purchases at GRNT (2026-03-13 and 2026-03-10) each realized modest 30-day gains (+7.7%, +8.5% respectively) but failed to translate into 90-day appreciation. His cross-ticker track record shows 0% win rate on 90-day outcomes across 2 prior buys. Meanwhile, the company reports $128.3M quarterly revenue with an $-47.0M net loss, a P/E of 27.00, and 18.5% annual revenue growth—a mixed profile combining operational growth with significant near-term losses. A cluster pattern shows 2 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days, suggesting coordinated conviction. However, the price deterioration, repeat timing misses at this exact ticker, and negative profitability context limit the interpretive weight of this open-market purchase.

John McCartney Buy
4,000 shares
$22,160
@ $5.54
Significance 6/10

Director John McCartney buys 4,000 shares of GRNT at $5.54 amid 4-insider cluster; +3.3% price momentum 30-day but mixed timing track record at ticker.

Director John McCartney purchased 4,000 shares at $5.54 on 2026-05-21, adding 2.9% to his holdings to reach 143,143 shares post-transaction. This buy occurs as part of a cluster pattern—4 other insiders also acquired shares within the past 14 days—suggesting coordinated interest at current price levels. Notably, the stock has recovered +3.3% over the past 30 days and +6.9% over 90 days, and currently trades at $5.58, just above his entry. However, McCartney's prior buy history at GRNT shows mixed timing outcomes: his two most recent purchases (2026-03-11 and 2026-03-12) delivered strong 90-day returns of +12.3% and +11.4%, but three earlier December 2025 purchases generated negative 30- and 90-day returns. Across his 5 prior GRNT trades, only 2 of 5 were well-timed at the 90-day mark. The company faces headwinds—net income of -$47.0M on quarterly revenue of $128.3M and a P/E of 31.00—adding to the broader context of directional uncertainty at this price.

John McCartney Buy
3,000 shares
$17,430
@ $5.81
Significance 6/10

Director John McCartney bought 3,000 shares of GRNT at $5.81; part of 4-insider cluster in 14 days.

John McCartney, Director of Granite Ridge Resources, purchased 3,000 shares at $5.81 on 2026-05-19, bringing his holdings to 139,143 shares. The transaction occurs within a cluster pattern: 4 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days. At the same-ticker level, McCartney's prior trades show mixed results—two of five prior buys at GRNT were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with recent March purchases posting 8.0% and 8.8% 30-day gains. However, his cross-ticker track record is weaker: 18 prior buys averaged -1.0% 30-day return and -1.6% 90-day return with only 11.11% win rate. The current price of $5.66 is -15.8% from the 52-week high but +14.1% over 30 days, suggesting recent momentum recovery. The company faces fundamental headwinds—reporting a net loss of $-47,031,000.00 on revenue of $128,264,000.00—though it has achieved annual revenue growth of +18.5%.

At the same-ticker level, his prior measurable buy on 2024-05-23 returned -8.4% at 30 days and -4.1% at 90 days, with only 0 of 1 prior buys at GRNT well-timed at the 90-day mark.

The company reported a net loss of $-47,031,000.00 last quarter while generating $128,264,000.00 in revenue, with annual revenue growth of +18.5% and a P/E of 30.44.

Farquharson Tyler Buy
President and CEO
10,000 shares
$51,500
@ $5.15
Significance 7/10

CEO Farquharson Tyler buys 10,000 shares at $5.15; sixth open-market purchase at GRNT in 36 months amid mixed prior timing and recent weakness.

Farquharson Tyler, President and CEO of Granite Ridge Resources, purchased 10,000 shares on the open market, continuing a pattern of consistent buying activity at this company—this is his sixth open-market purchase in the past three years. The timing is notable: the stock is trading well below its 52-week high and recently declined over the past month, creating a lower entry point than some of his prior purchases at this same company. His previous purchases at GRNT show mixed results—two of the five prior buys were followed by gains at both the 30-day and 90-day marks, while three were followed by declines over the same periods—indicating his timing on this stock has been inconsistent. Fundamentally, the company is profitable with growing annual revenue, though the most recent quarter showed a net loss, presenting a mixed picture. The buy occurs as a repeat purchase at lower prices, yet without a consistent track record of well-timed entries at this ticker, it remains unclear whether this reflects opportunistic buying or continued accumulation despite headwinds.

Miller Matthew Reade Buy
18,180 shares
$94,718
@ $5.21
Significance 6/10

Director Matthew Reade purchases 18,180 shares as stock trades well below 52-week highs, continuing a consistent buying pattern despite mixed prior trade timing.

Director Matthew Reade added to his position in Granite Ridge Resources with this open-market purchase, marking his sixth buy of company shares within the three-year window and extending a streak of 30 consecutive open-market purchases across all his holdings without a single sale. The timing reflects a cautious investor stance: the stock is trading significantly below its 52-week high, having declined in recent weeks, while Granite Ridge remains a profitable, growing company by annual metrics, though the latest quarterly results showed a loss. Reade's track record at this specific ticker is mixed—of five prior buys at Granite Ridge, three saw the stock appreciate over the subsequent 90-day period while two saw declines, suggesting he has been neither consistently early nor consistently late in his purchases. The current purchase at depressed levels continues his repeat-buyer approach, though whether this accumulation into weakness will prove well-timed remains uncertain given his historical 50/50 success rate on timing at this stock.
