INSW International Seaways, Inc. Insider Trading

SVP Nugent sells 6,830 INSW shares at $85.23; stock up 32.3% in 90 days but prior INSW sale poorly timed.

William F. Nugent, Senior Vice President, sold 6,830 shares of International Seaways at $85.23 on 2026-05-14, reducing his position from 56.0K to 49.2K shares. The sale occurred while INSW has gained 32.3% over the prior 90 days and remains within 8.7% of its 52-week high of $92.66. However, Nugent's prior sale of INSW shares on 2026-03-02 was followed by a +12.5% gain over 90 days, meaning the stock rose after he sold—a poorly timed outcome for the insider. This pattern of unfavorable exit timing on the same ticker warrants observation as INSW trades at a lean 7.67 P/E despite annual revenue declining 11.4% year-over-year.

Director Zabrocky sells 25,000 shares ($2.2M) in International Seaways; third INSW sale in 36 months, all prior sales poorly timed.

Lois K. Zabrocky, a director at International Seaways, sold 25,000 shares—representing roughly 12% of her stake—as the stock trades modestly below its 52-week high after a substantial rally over recent months. This is her third open-market sale of INSW stock in the trailing 36-month window, and notably, her two prior sales at this company were both poorly timed, with the stock rising significantly in the months following each exit. The company remains solidly profitable with reasonable valuation, though revenue has declined on a year-over-year basis, creating a mixed backdrop. Zabrocky's exclusive selling pattern at this ticker, combined with her prior exits being followed by stock gains (suggesting she exited before further upside), raises a question about her current conviction in the company relative to recent price momentum.

James D Small (CAO,SVP,Sec. & General Counsel) sold 20,000 shares of INSW at $75.37 on 2026-03-04 for $1.5M, reducing holdings by -35.5%.

James D Small, the Chief Administrative Officer and Chief Legal Officer of International Seaways, sold 20,000 shares at $75.37, representing a substantial 35.5% reduction in his holdings from 56,376 to 36,376 shares. The sale occurred near the 52-week high of $76.50 and was executed as the stock was up 18.9% over the prior 30 days and 41.9% over 90 days. However, Small's prior sales at INSW do not show a pattern of well-timed exits: his November 2025 sale was followed by 90-day gains of +15.8%, and his August 2023 sale was followed by gains of +4.6%, meaning the stock rose after both previous sales. Across his broader trading history, his prior sells show an average 90-day return of +10.2% and a 0.00% well-timed rate, reflecting no pattern of selling before declines. The company's fundamentals show annual revenue decline of -11.4% and a relatively elevated P/E of 32.53, which may provide context for a significant insider position reduction at a price near 52-week highs.

Nugent (SVP) sells 9,583 INSW shares at $76.00; holds 52.6K post-sale as stock near 52-week high

Nugent, Senior Vice President at International Seaways, sold 9,583 shares at $76.00 for $728,327.17 on 2026-03-02, reducing his holdings by 15.4% from 62.2K to 52.6K shares. The sale occurred at a price within 1.4% of the 52-week high of $76.50, in a period when the stock has surged 46.1% over 90 days and 24.9% over 30 days. While the company reports strong near-term fundamentals with $70.5M net income on $196.4M revenue, the elevated P/E of 33.83 and annual revenue decline of 11.4% suggest the stock may be priced for near-term strength that may not be sustainable. The sale at peak pricing against a deteriorating revenue trajectory warrants attention to whether near-term results can justify current valuation.

INSW CAO/SVP James D III sold 20,000 shares at $53.60 (near 52-week high); post-sale holdings 49,292 shares.

James D III, Chief Administrative Officer and Senior Vice President, sold 20,000 shares (28.9% of pre-transaction holdings) at $53.60, a price 0.7% below the 52-week high of $53.98. The sale occurred as the stock has appreciated significantly over the prior 30 days (+16.2%) and 90 days (+29.2%). His prior sell at INSW on 2023-08-11 resulted in a 90-day return of +4.6%, meaning the stock rose after that sale—poorly timed in hindsight. The company's fundamentals show annual revenue declined 11.2% year-over-year, though the latest quarter generated $196.4M in revenue with $70.5M net income, yielding a P/E of 12.18. The transaction represents a routine insider equity adjustment; without scheduled-trading-plan disclosure, no timing signal can be inferred beyond the factual context that the sale occurred near recent highs following strong short-term price momentum.
