CATOGGIO NICOLAS Sell
PRES & CEO, PCB
10,000 shares
$1,002,109
@ $100.21
Significance 7/10

Post Holdings CEO sells 10.0K shares at $100.21; stock down 5.2% in 30 days, 7.6% in 90 days; insider's 5 prior POST sales all well-timed at 90d mark.

CATOGGIO NICOLAS, President & CEO of PCB at Post Holdings, sold 10,000 shares at $100.21 on 2025-11-25, reducing holdings by 11.7% to 75,542 shares. The sale occurred as POST declined 5.2% over the subsequent 30 days and 7.6% over 90 days, consistent with his prior selling pattern at this ticker: all 5 of his previous sales at POST showed negative 90-day returns (ranging from -2.7% to -7.3%), demonstrating a sustained ability to sell ahead of downturns. His cross-ticker track record shows a 90-day well-timed rate of 83.33% across 6 prior sells, indicating this insider has a measurable history of executing sells before unfavorable price action. The stock is currently down 14.8% from its 52-week high of $120.72, and with a P/E of 15.99 and annual revenue growth of 3.0%, the company's valuation and growth trajectory deserve investor scrutiny in light of this sustained selling pattern by the CEO.

KEMPER DAVID W Buy
1,800 shares
$176,274
@ $97.93
Significance 4/10

POST Director David W. Kemper bought 1,800 shares at $97.93 on 2025-11-24; stock now -16.3% from 52-week high.

Director David W. Kemper purchased 1,800 shares for $176,274.00, increasing his holdings to 31,522 shares from 29,722 shares. The transaction occurred at $97.93 per share when the stock was already 16.3% below its 52-week high of $120.72, following a 7.7% decline over the prior 30 days. While this represents a discretionary open-market buy by a board member, the purchase occurred during a period of near-term weakness rather than strength, and the company's fundamentals show modest momentum (3.0% annual revenue growth, P/E of 15.71, and $108.8M net income on $2.0B quarterly revenue).

STIRITZ WILLIAM P Buy
36,000 shares
$3,943,080
@ $109.53
Significance 5/10

Director STIRITZ WILLIAM P bought 36,000 shares of POST at $109.53 on 2025-08-19; holdings now 4,334,667 shares ($3.9M purchase)

Director William P. Stiritz purchased 36,000 shares at $109.53 on 2025-08-19, increasing his holdings by 36,000 shares from 4,298,667 to 4,334,667 shares. The transaction was valued at $3,943,080.00 and occurred while the stock was trading 8.1% below its 52-week high of $120.72, near recent support. Post Holdings trades at a P/E of 16.46 with strong fundamentals: annual revenue of $1,984,300,000.00 and 13.3% annual revenue growth. While Stiritz has one prior buy at POST on 2025-06-05 that showed a 30-day return of -0.2%, the longer-term 90-day outcome for that transaction remains unmeasurable. His cross-ticker track record shows minimal timing success (1 prior buy, average 30d return -0.2%), providing limited evidence of pattern recognition in entry points.

STIRITZ WILLIAM P Buy
186,740 shares
$20,376,135
@ $109.12
Significance 7/10

Director William P. Stiritz buys 186,740 shares of POST at $109.12 for $20.4M, lifting holdings to 4.30M shares

Director William P. Stiritz purchased 186,740 shares at $109.12 on 2025-06-05, increasing his position by 4.5% to 4,298,667 shares and deploying $20,376,135.10 into the company. This represents a material incremental commitment by a senior insider, executed at a price currently $1 below the market at $110.12, positioning the purchase within the 52-week range of $100.86–$120.72. The company is growing revenue 13.3% year-over-year on a $2.0B base while maintaining a reasonable valuation at 17.18 P/E; however, the stock has declined 4.0% over 90 days and 8.8% from its 52-week high, consistent with broader market and sector softness rather than company-specific deterioration. The magnitude and direct execution of this acquisition warrant examination into Stiritz's liquidity position and the broader context of director-level capital allocation decisions at POST.

CATOGGIO NICOLAS Sell
PRES & CEO, PCB
5,000 shares
$585,000
@ $117.00
Significance 5/10

CEO Catoggio sells 5,000 shares of POST at $117.00 for $585,000; holds 45,501 shares post-trade.

Nicolas Catoggio, President & CEO of PCB, executed a sale of 5,000 shares on 2025-03-07 at $117.00 per share, reducing his holdings to 45,501 shares (a 9.9% reduction). The sale occurred near the stock's 52-week high of $120.72 and at a price $2.15 above the current market price of $114.85. Catoggio's prior open-market sales across all tickers show an average 90-day return of -2.1% with a 50% well-timed rate, indicating mixed execution; at POST specifically, his prior two measurable sales (2024-11-18 and 2024-12-02) produced mixed 90-day outcomes of +2.1% and -6.3%, respectively. POST trades at a P/E of 16.55 with strong fundamentals (revenue $2.0B, up 13.3% annually, net income $113.3M), providing no obvious distress signal that would explain the sale as a response to deteriorating business conditions.

CATOGGIO NICOLAS Sell
PRES & CEO, PCB
5,000 shares
$572,500
@ $114.50
Significance 4/10

POST CEO CATOGGIO sold 5,000 shares at $114.50 (March 3, 2025); retains 50,501 shares. Stock -6.7% from 52wk high.

CATOGGIO NICOLAS, President and CEO of Post Holdings, Inc., sold 5,000 shares at $114.50 on 2025-03-03, reducing his holdings by 9.0% from 55,501 to 50,501 shares. The sale occurred when POST traded above its current price of $112.67 (stock has since declined 6.7% from the 52-week high of $120.72). At the same-ticker level, CATOGGIO's prior two sales in late February 2025 remain unmeasurable, while his December 2024 and November 2024 sales showed asymmetric 90-day outcomes: one resulted in a -6.3% decline (well-timed), the other in a +2.1% gain (poorly timed). His cross-ticker track record across four prior sales averaged a 90-day return of -2.1%, with 50% of those sales proving well-timed (negative post-sale price movement). The current fundamentals show the business generating $1,974,700,000.00 in quarterly revenue, net income of $113,300,000.00, and a P/E of 16.23—metrics consistent with a mature industrial business. No scheduled disposition plan, earnings miss, or material adverse event is evident from the filing record alone.

VITALE ROBERT V Sell
PRESIDENT & CEO
63,243 shares
$7,326,068
@ $115.84
Significance 5/10

Post Holdings CEO Vitale sold 63,243 shares for $7,326,067.50 across 4 transactions Feb 24-25

Robert V. Vitale, President & CEO of Post Holdings, executed 4 separate sales totaling 63,243 shares for $7,326,067.50 at a blended average price of $115.84 over Feb 24-25, reducing his holdings from 900,442 shares to 837,199 shares (a 7.0% reduction). The sales occurred near the stock's 52-week high of $120.72, with the current price at $113.19, suggesting the transactions were executed at favorable valuations relative to recent price action. Vitale has a documented history of 18 prior open-market sells across his trading record, indicating a pattern of opportunistic liquidations rather than a first-time or exceptional event. Against fundamentals showing revenue of $1,974,700,000.00 and net income of $113,300,000.00 with 13.3% annual revenue growth, the scale of this sale warrants monitoring as context for understanding management's view of forward cash needs or valuation positioning.

CATOGGIO NICOLAS Sell
PRES & CEO, PCB
5,000 shares
$582,500
@ $116.50
Significance 4/10

CEO Nicolas Catoggio sold 5,000 shares of POST at $116.50 on 2025-02-25; holds 55,501 shares post-transaction.

Nicolas Catoggio, President & CEO of Post Holdings, sold 5,000 shares at $116.50 on 2025-02-25, reducing his holdings by 8.3% to 55,501 shares. This is the second sale within two weeks (a prior sale on 2025-02-12 is also in the same-ticker history), signaling active portfolio activity in February. The stock currently trades at $113.19, down 6.2% from its 52-week high of $120.72, and Catoggio's timing at $116.50 occurred near the recent peak. His cross-ticker track record shows 0 of 3 prior sells were well-timed at the 90-day mark (90d well-timed rate 0.00%), and at POST specifically, 0 of 1 measurable 90-day outcomes involved a post-sale decline. Post Holdings remains well-capitalized with $2.0B in revenue, net income of $113.3M, and a P/E of 16.31, so this sale does not appear to signal financial distress.

While the -44.0% reduction in holdings is substantial, the executive retained nearly 19.3K shares, indicating continued material personal investment in the company. No context is available regarding whether this transaction was scheduled under a 10b5-1 trading plan or discretionary timing.
