President Sean Compton sells 5,000 NXST shares at $196.00; stock down 24.9% from 52-week high, down 19.7% in 90 days.
Sean Compton, President of Networks at Nexstar Media Group, sold 5,000 shares (5.0K shares) at $196.00 on 2026-05-19, reducing his holdings by 30.8% to 11,252 shares (11.3K shares). The sale occurred as NXST stock has declined significantly: the current price of $191.09 is 24.9% below the 52-week high of $254.30, and the stock has fallen 19.7% over the prior 90 days. His cross-ticker track record shows 1 prior sell with an average 90-day well-timed rate of 0.00%, and his prior NXST sale on 2024-08-16 was not well-timed (stock rose 3.5% in the 90 days following). The company's fundamentals show revenue of $1,396,000,000.00 (latest quarter) with annual revenue growth of -8.5% year-over-year, and a P/E of 35.39. The sale follows a substantial period of stock weakness, though the timing pattern of his prior NXST transaction and lack of a well-timed execution record does not indicate a clear early-warning signal.
