Damian Miguel Mindlin Sell
Vicepresident
814,000 shares
$3,003,660
@ $3.69
Significance 3/10

VP Damian Miguel Mindlin sold 814,000 shares (814.0K shares) of PAM at $3.69 on 2026-06-01 for $3,003,660.00

Damian Miguel Mindlin, Vice President of Pampa Energy Inc., executed a sale of 814,000 shares at $3.69 on June 1, 2026, reducing his holdings from 13.91M to 13.10M shares (-5.9%). The current stock price of $86.39 implies this transaction occurred at a substantial discount to recent market levels, positioned -8.6% from the 52-week high. His prior five sales at PAM all generated negative 90-day returns (ranging from +2114.0% to +2273.3%), yet his 90-day well-timed rate stands at 0.00%, meaning none of these prior exits preceded price declines—the stock rallied after each sale. This pattern of consistent underperformance in sale timing at this specific ticker is notable, as the insider has missed gains repeatedly over his recent transaction history at PAM.

Marcos Marcelo Mindlin Buy
275,000 shares
$925,925
@ $3.37
Significance 4/10

Director Marcos Mindlin purchases 275,000 PAM shares at $3.37; stock now $83.89, up 7.9% in 90 days.

Marcos Marcelo Mindlin, a Director at Pampa Energy Inc., purchased 275,000 shares at $3.37 on 2026-05-27, increasing his holdings from 21,371,973 to 21,646,973 shares. The stock currently trades at $83.89, representing a 7.9% gain over the 90-day period following this purchase. However, this transaction must be contextualized against Mindlin's prior trading pattern at this ticker: his four preceding trades at PAM were all sales (on 2026-05-08, 2026-04-22, 2026-04-20, and 2026-04-16), with a 0% well-timed rate at the 90-day mark—meaning none of those sales occurred before subsequent rallies. The shift from recent selling activity to a buy, combined with his substantial existing position of 21.65M shares, warrants scrutiny of underlying motivations, but the data does not clarify whether this reflects renewed conviction or other factors such as cash management or option exercise details not visible in this filing.

Marcos Marcelo Mindlin Sell
1,800,000 shares
$6,265,800
@ $3.48
Significance 6/10

Director Marcos Mindlin sold 1,800,000 (1.80M shares) of PAM at $3.48 on 2026-05-19; -6.7% of holdings; stock now $81.71.

Director Marcos Marcelo Mindlin sold 1,800,000 shares at $3.48, reducing his holdings from 26,771,973 shares to 24,971,973 shares, a 6.7% reduction. At his cross-ticker track record, prior sells showed an average 90d return of +2198.0% with a 0.00% well-timed rate—meaning the stock rose after those sales, indicating poorly timed exits historically. At PAM specifically, all 4 prior sells showed positive 90-day returns (ranging from +2141.8% to +2269.9%), with 0 of 4 well-timed at the 90-day mark, establishing a pattern of selling before rallies rather than declines. The current price of $81.71 is -13.5% from the 52-week high, placing this sale well below recent peak valuations despite the insider's repeated prior positioning on the downside of positive subsequent returns.

Mindlin Marcos Marcelo Sell
1,800,000 shares
$6,033,600
@ $3.35
Significance 6/10

Director Mindlin sells 1.8M shares; prior three sales all well-timed as stock fell afterward.

Mindlin Marcos Marcelo, a director and 10% beneficial owner of Pampa Energy, sold 1.8 million shares in a single transaction. This is his fourth open-market sale in the trailing 36-month period, extending a pattern of liquidation activity. His three prior sales at Pampa all proved well-timed—the stock declined in the weeks and months following each exit. The stock currently trades well below its 52-week high, down from recent highs over the last three months. While Mindlin's consistent pattern of selling ahead of subsequent declines suggests reliable market timing at this specific ticker, the absence of any open-market purchases over the same 36-month window underscores that his activity has been one-directional. The large share disposition and the insider's status as a director with material holdings warrant attention to whether this represents routine portfolio activity or a shift in his company conviction.

Vice President

Significance 7/10

VP Mariani acquires 50,000 shares of PAM at ~$81 in back-to-back purchases, first open-market buy on record

Gustavo Mariani, Vice President at Pampa Energy, has executed his first open-market share purchases on record, acquiring a combined 50,000 shares over two consecutive trading days at prices near current levels. The stock is currently trading well below its annual highs, down modestly over the past month despite holding relatively steady over the past quarter, positioning this buy in a period of modest weakness. Mariani's total acquisition value exceeds $4 million, representing meaningful capital deployment for a C-suite officer with direct operational knowledge of the company. This marks a notable shift for an insider with no prior Form 4 activity in the three-year window, suggesting either a first investment opportunity in this filing window or a deliberate decision to accumulate shares at current valuations. Given Pampa Energy's large market capitalization and profitable operations, the purchase targets a financially established company rather than a turnaround play, though the stock's distance from annual highs warrants examination of whether fundamentals have deteriorated or if Mariani views the pullback as a buying opportunity.
