IT GARTNER INC Insider Trading

SVP John J Rinello buys 50 shares of Gartner at $154.13; stock now -70.8% from 52-week high of $547.16

Rinello John J, SVP of Global Business Sales, purchased 50 shares at $154.13, establishing an initial position. The stock has since declined sharply, trading at $159.75 (30-day change: -35.6%, 90-day change: -31.0%), and sits 70.8% below its 52-week high of $547.16. The company maintains stable fundamentals with $1,524,072,000.00 quarterly revenue and a P/E of 13.00, but the stock's severe drawdown from recent peaks and continued recent weakness provide context for evaluating the timing and motivation of this entry-level purchase by a senior sales executive.

Director Pagliuca purchases 43,300 shares for $9.9M at blended $229.57, expanding stake 63.4% to 111.6K shares

Director Stephen G Pagliuca executed 7 separate open-market purchases on 2025-12-10 totaling 43,300 shares for $9,940,341.21, with a blended average price of $229.57.

The current price of $233.89 is 57.4% below the 52-week high of $548.38, placing the stock near the lower half of its recent range. The magnitude and deliberate sequencing across multiple price points (from $225.98 to $231.75) within a single trading session, combined with the substantial capital commitment ($9.9M), represents a material commitment to the company's equity at depressed valuations relative to recent history.

Gartner director Jose M Gutierrez buys 417 shares at $239.80; stock down 45% in 90 days from peak.

At a P/E of 14.61 and recent revenue growth of 6.1%, the company remains fundamentally profitable and profitable with $240.8M in net income on $1.7B quarterly revenue. The timing of this director-level purchase during a sustained period of stock weakness merits observation as a discretionary capital deployment decision.

CFO Craig Safian sold 3,415 shares of Gartner at $450.17; stock now $446.10, down 19.2% from 52-week high.

CFO Craig Safian sold 3,415 shares (3.4K shares) for $1,537,330.55 ($1.5M) on 2025-05-13 at $450.17, reducing his holdings from 81,305 shares (81.3K shares) to 77,890 shares (77.9K shares), a -4.2% reduction.

Examining his same-ticker history at IT shows mixed timing outcomes: of 4 prior sells, only 1 was well-timed at the 90-day mark; his prior November 2024 sale at this company suffered a 5.9% 30-day decline and 3.9% 90-day decline, while his August 2024 sale appreciated 5.6% at 30 days and 14.1% at 90 days.
