KEYS Keysight Technologies, Inc. Insider Trading

Director James Cullen sold 3,000 shares of KEYS at $346.58; retains 21,821 shares post-transaction.

James Cullen, a director of Keysight, sold 3,000 shares (12.1% of his pre-transaction holdings) on 2026-06-02 at $346.58 per share, reducing his stake to 21,821 shares. The transaction occurred at a price modestly above the current market price of $343.11 and well below the 52-week high of $370.18. Given the substantial retained position and the scale of the sale relative to total holdings, this appears to be a partial position reduction rather than a sign of broad loss of confidence in the business. The company's fundamentals remain solid with annual revenue growth of +8.0% and a 90-day stock price appreciation of +25.9%, though the elevated P/E of 55.61 reflects market expectations priced into the current valuation.

CFO Neil Dougherty sold 2,000 KEYS shares at $298.37; stock now down 6.8% in 30 days from sale price

Neil Dougherty, EVP and CFO of Keysight, sold 2,000 shares at $298.37 on March 24, 2026, reducing his position by 1.6% to 125.3K shares. The sale occurred near the stock's 52-week high of $313.27, and the stock has since declined 6.8% over 30 days to $281.07. His prior four sales at Keysight showed mixed timing outcomes: only 1 of 4 achieved negative 90-day returns (the well-timed sell threshold for sales), though his cross-ticker track record shows a 25% well-timed rate across all holdings. The sale is modest in absolute terms relative to Dougherty's 125.3K-share base and occurs at a valuation inflection point in a stock that has rallied 36.4% over 90 days.

Keysight CEO Satish sells 1,667 shares at $300.00; stock now at $281.07, down 6.8% in 30d

Dhanasekaran Satish (President and CEO) sold 1,667 shares of KEYS at $300.00 on 2026-03-24 for a total value of $500,100.00, reducing his holdings by 1.3% to 122,397 shares. At the current price of $281.07, the stock is down 6.8% over the 30 days since the transaction and down 10.3% from its 52-week high of $313.27. The transaction is relatively modest in scale—representing less than 2% of his holdings—and occurred at a price premium to where the stock trades today. His prior KEYS trades show mixed timing (1 of 5 prior sells well-timed at the 90-day mark), with post-sale returns varying significantly: the most recent two sales in December 2025 saw 90-day returns of +33.4% and +56.5% respectively, whereas sales in 2024 and earlier showed negative or modest 90-day returns. The modest transaction size and the absence of any material context about company fundamentals make this a routine equity transaction consistent with portfolio management at the CEO level.

Director Ronald S. Nersesian sold 30,000 KEYS shares at $285.96 on 2026-03-17; holds 163,376 shares post-sale.

Nersesian sold 30,000 shares (163.4K remaining) at $285.96 during strong recent momentum: KEYS has gained 23.8% over 30 days and 43.3% over 90 days, currently trading at $290.21 near its 52-week high of $313.27. His prior trades at KEYS show mixed timing—2 of 3 prior sales resulted in gains (the 2025-11-28 sale saw 90d +55.4%), indicating neither consistent nor poor execution at this ticker. His cross-ticker track record across all open-market sales (3 prior sells) shows a 66.67% well-timed rate with an average 90d return of +14.1%, suggesting some pattern of selling before deterioration. Against a P/E of 51.73 and strong recent gains, the sale occurs at a point of elevated valuation and momentum—observable context that prompted a substantial reduction of his direct holding by 15.5%.

SVP PAGE JOHN sold 15,000 KEYS shares at $213.48 on 2025-12-10; holds 21,242 post-sale (-41.4% reduction).

SVP PAGE JOHN executed a substantial sale of 15,000 shares for $3,202,185.00, reducing his holdings by 41.4% to 21,242 shares. This large proportional reduction comes at a price ($213.48) near the 52-week high of $214.14, though the stock has moved -2.5% from that peak. His prior sale of KEYS shares on 2025-05-30 saw the stock advance 5.6% over 90 days, indicating that timing was not favorable on the prior occasion. The company faces a challenging revenue backdrop with -8.9% annual growth and trades at an elevated P/E of 65.87, which may contextualize the insider's decision to liquidate a significant portion of his position at current valuations.

CEO Satish sold 4,230 KEYS shares at $211.43 for $894.3K; stock at 52-week high

Dhanasekaran Satish, President and CEO, sold 4,230 shares at $211.43 on 2025-12-09, reducing his holdings from 129,961 to 125,731 shares. The sale occurred with KEYS trading at its 52-week high of $214.14, following strong momentum (+17.4% in 30 days, +25.6% in 90 days). At KEYS specifically, Satish's timing track record is mixed: his most recent sale on 2025-12-01 (outcome not yet measurable) preceded two sales in late 2024–2023 where only 1 of 3 prior KEYS transactions registered negative 90-day returns, indicating limited predictive value. His cross-ticker track record shows 4 prior sells with a 33.33% well-timed rate and average 90-day return of +5.5%, suggesting modest timing skill. The CEO retains substantial holdings (125.7K shares), signaling ongoing alignment despite the discretionary sale during a period of peak valuation.

Keysight CEO Satish sold 12,528 shares at $196.42 (12.5K shares, $2.5M); stock now at $206.61

Dhanasekaran Satish sold 12,528 shares at $196.42 on 2025-12-01, reducing his holdings by -8.6% to 132,361 shares. The transaction occurred at a price $10.19 below the current market price of $206.61, and Keysight's stock has risen 11.0% over the past 30 days and 23.8% over 90 days. At the same ticker, Satish's prior three trades show mixed timing outcomes: his sale on 2024-12-02 subsequently declined -5.3% over 30 days (well-timed), while his two 2023 sales occurred ahead of gains of +18.9% and +6.4% respectively over 30 days (poorly timed). This sale follows a period of strong stock momentum, and the below-current pricing suggests the insider did not capture the recent rally; however, with annual revenue growth of -8.9% and a P/E of 65.18 against quarterly revenue of $1,352,000,000, the valuation context and fundamental backdrop warrant investor attention.

Director Ronald Nersesian sells 30,000 KEYS shares at $196.88 for $5.9M; stock now at 52-week high of $201.40

Director Ronald Nersesian sold 30,000 shares (30.0K shares) at $196.88, reducing his holdings by 13.1% to 198,389 shares post-transaction. The sale occurred at $196.88, just $4.52 below the current price of $201.40, which marks the 52-week high. Notably, Nersesian's prior two sales at KEYS (on 2024-12-03 and 2023-12-27) were both well-timed on a 90-day basis, with -8.5% and -4.7% returns respectively, suggesting a pattern of selling before subsequent declines. His cross-ticker track record shows a 100.00% well-timed rate on prior sells with an average 90-day return of -6.6%, though the current sale comes within 10.1% of a 52-week high, raising questions about whether this transaction follows that established pattern or reflects different timing dynamics.

CFO Neil Dougherty sold 12,215 KEYS shares at $164.60 on 2025-06-30 for $2,010,591.44; holds 115,228 shares post-transaction.

Dougherty sold 12,215 shares (-9.6% of pre-transaction holdings) at $164.60, reducing his stake to 115,228 shares. His cross-ticker track record shows a 90d well-timed rate of 33.33% with an average 90d return of +2.2%, indicating his prior sells have been poorly timed overall—the stock has tended to rise after his sales. At the same ticker (KEYS), his prior 3 sells show mixed outcomes: two sales on 2025-03-27 were followed by +5.9% 90d returns (poorly timed), while one sale in 2023-12-15 saw a -5.3% 90d return (well-timed). The stock closed at $165.52 after this sale, up 4.5% over 30 days and 22.0% over 90 days. KEYS trades at a P/E of 38.40 against an annual revenue decline of -8.9%, warranting attention to whether fundamental deterioration or discretionary liquidity drove this sale.

SVP Ingrid A Estrada sells 10,000 KEYS shares at $158.97 for $1.6M; retains 108.6K shares

Estrada sold 10,000 shares (a -8.4% reduction in her 118.6K pre-transaction holdings) at $158.97 on 2025-06-20. The stock currently trades at $164.73, up 2.9% over 30 days and 5.3% over 90 days, though it remains -11.0% from its 52-week high of $185.11. Keysight reported quarterly revenue of $1.3B and net income of $257.0M, but annual revenue growth contracted -8.9% year-over-year, and the stock trades at a P/E of 38.22 with a $28.4B market cap. The sale represents a discrete reduction in holdings from an executive officer but occurs within a context of decelerating revenue growth, elevated valuation multiples, and the stock trading well below recent peaks.
