CEO William Staples purchased 4,188 shares of GTLB at $29.36 via 10b5-1 plan; stock now down 39.8% from 52-week high.

William Staples purchased 4,188 shares at $29.36 on 2026-06-30 as part of a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan, adding 0.6% to his holdings of 758.8K shares post-transaction. This transaction was scheduled rather than discretionary. The stock currently trades at $31.53, down 39.8% from its 52-week high of $52.38, and has declined 6.7% over the past 30 days despite a 39.7% gain over 90 days. At GTLB specifically, Staples' two most recent purchases on 2026-03-31 delivered 30-day returns of +3.9% and +2.3%, though an earlier December 2025 purchase declined 8.1% over 30 days and 43.2% over 90 days, indicating mixed results from prior same-ticker activity. The company remains unprofitable with a net loss of $-5.0M in the latest quarter, though annual revenue growth is +25.8%.

Significance 5

Director Sijbrandij sells 116,200 shares ($3.3M) at $28.44 blended under 10b5-1 plan; stock down 49.5% from 52-week high, company unprofitable.

Sytse Sijbrandij, a Director at GitLab Inc., executed two separate sales totaling 116,200 shares for $3,304,886.60 at a blended average price of $28.44, reducing his stake by 0.8%. This transaction is part of a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan, meaning it was scheduled rather than a discretionary market decision. The broader context shows GTLB's stock at $26.47, representing a 49.5% decline from its 52-week high of $52.38, while the company remains unprofitable with a net loss of $4,972,000 in its latest quarter, though annual revenue growth stands at 25.8%. His same-ticker selling history at GTLB shows mixed outcomes: the two most recent sells on 2026-05-18 have posted 30-day returns of +6.2% and +9.9%, but earlier sells in 2026-02-17 and 2026-04-15 experienced 30-day declines of -21.6% and -19.3% post-trade. Because this is a scheduled 10b5-1 sale, the timing reflects plan mechanics rather than discretionary market timing, and the magnitude (116.2K shares against post-transaction holdings of 14.90M shares) represents a routine portfolio adjustment.

Director Sijbrandij sells 116,200 GTLB shares for $2.9M under 10b5-1 plan; retains 15.02M shares post-sale

Sijbrandij executed 2 separate sales totaling 116,200 shares for $2,887,800.72 on 2026-05-18 under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan, reducing his holdings from 15.13M to 15.02M shares (a -0.8% reduction). The blended average sale price was $24.85, compared to the current price of $25.09. GTLB is trading -53.6% from its 52-week high of $54.08 and has delivered a 30-day return of +17.1%, though the company remains unprofitable with annual net income of $-8.3M against quarterly revenue of $244.4M. Because this transaction is part of a pre-arranged 10b5-1 plan, it reflects a scheduled execution rather than a discretionary market decision. His prior 5 trades at GTLB have shown mixed post-transaction returns, with outcomes ranging from -21.6% (30-day) to +13.9% (30-day), indicating no consistent directional pattern specific to this ticker.

Significance 6

Director Sijbrandij sold 116,200 shares of GTLB at $20.77 ($2.4M) under 10b5-1 plan on 2026-04-15

Director Sytse Sijbrandij sold 116,200 shares of Gitlab Inc. (GTLB) at $20.77 per share for a total value of $2,413,474.00 under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan on 2026-04-15, resulting in zero Table I holdings post-transaction. The transaction is scheduled under a Rule 10b5-1 arrangement, meaning the sale was determined in advance and not discretionary. The Form 4 filing indicates derivative securities in Table II that are not yet populated in the database, so the insider's full economic position extends beyond the Table I share count reported here. This sale represents a conversion of derivative holdings into the reported common share liquidation and should be viewed as a structured, non-discretionary execution rather than a market-timing decision.

GitLab CEO Staples buys 6,010 shares for $128,342.35; stock down 58.9% from 52-week high, holding now 344.7K shares.

William Staples, GitLab's CEO, executed 2 separate purchases totaling 6,010 shares for $128,342.35 at blended average price $21.35 on 2026-03-31, increasing his holdings by 1.8% to 344,651 shares. The stock currently trades at $21.98, reflecting -16.1% decline over 30 days and -41.4% over 90 days, down 58.9% from its 52-week high of $53.43. Staples' cross-ticker track record shows 1 prior buy with an average 90-day return of -43.2%, and his only prior trade at GTLB (a buy on 2025-12-31) also delivered -43.2% over 90 days with 0 of 1 prior buys well-timed at the 90-day mark. The company is unprofitable (net income of $-8,276,000.00 in latest quarter; full-year net income negative), though revenue growth is strong at +25.8% year-over-year ($244,353,000.00 latest quarter).

Director sells entire 1.16M share stake at $22.72 blended average; stock down 40.7% in 90 days.

Jacobson Matthew, a Director at GitLab (GTLB), executed 16 separate sales on 2026-03-19 and 2026-03-20 totaling 1,159,908 shares for $26,350,369.16, eliminating his entire post-transaction holding of 0 shares. The blended average price was $22.72. Over the same 90-day lookback period, GTLB declined 40.7%, and his prior 5 trades at this ticker were uniformly well-timed at the 90-day mark, with the most recent December 2025 sale followed by a -39.9% 90-day return. The company carries negative full-year net income ($-8,276,000.00 latest quarter) despite 25.8% annual revenue growth, and the stock trades 58.3% below its 52-week high of $53.43. A complete exit by a sitting Director in a high-volatility, unprofitable growth company during an extended decline is material.

Significance 6

GitLab Director Sijbrandij sells 54,300 shares for $1,542,408 via 10b5-1 plan

Director Sytse Sijbrandij executed 2 separate sales totaling 54,300 shares for $1,542,408 on 2026-02-17 under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan, meaning the sales were scheduled and not discretionary. The blended average price across both transactions was $28.41 per share. This sale represents the liquidation of a specific share batch held as common stock; the insider maintains a derivative position in Table II of the Form 4 (not yet populated in this database), so the zero common shares post-transaction does not indicate a complete stake exit. As a 10b5-1 transaction, it was mechanically timed rather than reflecting an insider's active market judgment at this moment. Investors should monitor whether derivative holdings remain substantial and track any future discretionary transactions to assess actual conviction shifts.

Significance 6

Director Sijbrandij sold all 54,300 shares at $35.96 blended average; stock now at $34.75 (-52.5% from 52-week high).

Director Sytse Sijbrandij executed 2 separate sales totaling 54,300 shares for $1,952,484.58 on 2026-01-14 at blended average price of $35.96, reducing holdings to zero shares. The timing occurs as GitLab trades near 52-week lows (52-week range $34.75–$73.14, currently at $34.75) and amid ongoing stock weakness (90-day change -23.3%, 30-day change -8.8%). His prior sells at this ticker show a mixed pattern: 4 of 5 measurable outcomes were negative in the 30-day window (-8.7%, -7.1%, -13.1%, -11.9%), though only 1 of 1 measurable 90-day outcome was well-timed. The company remains unprofitable on a full-year basis (net income $-8,276,000.00) despite solid revenue growth of 30.9% year-over-year, creating an asymmetric risk profile where growth must accelerate to reach profitability. This is a derivative-conversion transaction involving Form 4 Table II positions not yet populated in this database, so this sale represents a conversion of specific derivative securities rather than a liquidation of the total position.

CEO William Staples bought 3,276 shares of GTLB at $38.08; stock down -48.7% from 52-week high

Staples purchased 3,276 shares at $38.08 on 2025-12-31, adding 1.0% to his holdings of 345.7K shares post-transaction. The purchase price of $38.08 is above the current price of $37.51, placing the transaction near recent lows but -48.7% below the 52-week high of $73.14. Gitlab remains unprofitable with a net income of $-8.3M in the latest quarter, though it posted strong +30.9% annual revenue growth. The transaction is modest in absolute terms and does not constitute a concentrated bet; Staples' cross-ticker track record shows 2 prior sells with a 0.00% well-timed rate, indicating his prior open-market sales have not systematically preceded price declines across his broader portfolio history.

Director Jacobson Matthew sold 334.8K GTLB shares at $38.08 (100% of holdings) for $12.7M; stock down 48.6% from 52-week high.

Director Matthew Jacobson liquidated his entire 334,827 share position in GitLab, representing a complete exit. The sale occurred at $38.08 per share, generating $12,749,843.85 in proceeds, while the stock now trades at $37.57, down 48.6% from its 52-week high of $73.14 and down 20.4% over the past 90 days. Jacobson's cross-ticker track record shows a 100.00% well-timed rate across 20 prior open-market sells, with an average 90-day return of -23.9% after his sales, and at GitLab specifically, all 5 of his prior trades were well-timed at the 90-day mark. The company remains unprofitable with a net loss of $8.3M in the latest quarter, despite 30.9% annual revenue growth to $244.4M, leaving investors to assess whether the full-position exit reflects broader concern about profitability trajectory or execution risk in a growth-stage SaaS company.
