SXI STANDEX INTERNATIONAL CORP/DE/ Insider Trading

SXI CEO David A. Dunbar sold 15,000 shares ($3.8M) at $255.94; stock now $253.93, near 52-week high.

David A. Dunbar, President/CEO/Chairman, executed 2 separate sales totaling 15,000 shares for $3,839,150.00 at a blended average price of $255.94 on 2026-02-17, reducing his holdings from 104.0K to 89.0K shares (-14.4%). The stock is currently trading at $253.93, down 3.3% from its 52-week high of $262.60 but up 14.3% over the past 90 days. Notably, Dunbar's prior 5 trades at SXI show mixed results—only 1 of 5 prior sales proved well-timed at the 90-day mark—suggesting inconsistent predictive accuracy at this specific ticker. The transaction occurs at elevated valuations (P/E 57.06) and while the absolute share count reduction is material, the timing relative to recent price momentum warrants observation given the insider's uneven historical record on SXI sell decisions.

Director NEMETH ANDY L bought 2,000 shares of SXI at $245.00 on 2026-02-04, expanding holdings 30.1% to 8,639 shares for $490,000.00 total.

NEMETH purchased 2,000 shares at $245.00, a price near the 52-week high of $250.64, with the stock currently trading at $241.94 (down 3.5% from its peak). The purchase increased his holdings from 6,639 to 8,639 shares—a 30.1% increase in his personal position. However, NEMETH's cross-ticker track record shows 16 prior open-market sales with an average 90-day well-timed rate of 100.00%, meaning his past sales occurred before price declines; this high accuracy on exits contrasts with limited visibility into his historical buy-side positioning and timing. The company shows modest fundamentals: $221.3M quarterly revenue, annual growth of 9.6%, but a P/E of 54.37 suggests elevated valuation relative to profitability ($2.1M net income), warranting careful evaluation of whether this acquisition reflects catalysts not yet apparent from the public financials.

CEO Dunbar sells 18,000 SXI shares at $235.00 for $4.2M; stock rallied +14.0% in 30d, +48.6% in 90d

David A. Dunbar, President/CEO/Chairman of Standex International, executed two separate open-market sales totaling 18,000 shares for $4,230,000.00 at $235.00 per share on 2025-10-15, reducing his holdings from 122.0K to 104.0K shares (-14.8%). The timing of this sale follows an exceptional period of price appreciation: the stock has gained 14.0% over the prior 30 days and 48.6% over the prior 90 days, reaching near its 52-week high of $235.35. Dunbar's cross-ticker track record shows mixed sell timing with a 90-day well-timed rate of 33.33%, while his ticker-specific history at SXI reveals that 2 of 3 prior measurable sells were well-timed (negative 90-day returns), suggesting some capacity to identify local peaks at this company. The company's fundamentals appear stable (P/E 65.19, annual revenue growth +9.6%, market cap $2.8B), but the execution of a material reduction (18.0K shares) immediately after a strong rally warrants examination of whether the insider perceived a pullback opportunity or broader conviction shift.

CEO/Chairman David A. Dunbar sold 11,000 shares of SXI at $215.00 for $2.4M; holds 122.0K shares post-sale

David A. Dunbar, President/CEO/Chairman of Standex International, sold 11,000 shares at $215.00 on 2025-09-18, reducing his stake from 133.0K to 122.0K shares. The sale occurred near the 52-week high of $214.67, with current price at $205.94. Looking at his prior trading at SXI, his 5 prior trades show mixed timing outcomes: 2 of 4 measurable 90-day periods exhibited negative returns (well-timed sells at 2024-03-06 and 2024-03-07 with -9.9% and -8.5% respectively), while 2 others captured subsequent gains (+9.0% and +18.0%). His cross-ticker track record across 7 prior sales shows a 33.33% well-timed rate with +3.2% average 30-day and +6.4% average 90-day returns, indicating modest predictive value. The stock has appreciated 31.9% over 90 days and 2.7% over 30 days, though the P/E of 57.53 is notably elevated relative to recent fundamentals ($207.8M quarterly revenue, $21.9M net income, +9.6% annual growth). This context—sale near a multi-month peak in a stock with elevated valuation multiples—warrants monitoring for broader insider positioning shifts.

SXI CEO Dunbar sold 16,000 shares ($3.2M) at $200.00; holds 115,576 shares post-transaction. Stock up 30.5% in 90 days.

David A. Dunbar, President/CEO/Chairman, sold 16,000 shares (12.2% of pre-transaction holdings) on 2025-08-13 at $200.00 per share, reducing his position from 131,576 to 115,576 shares. The sale occurred during a strong run: the stock is up 29.2% over 30 days and 30.5% over 90 days, trading within 3.6% of its 52-week high of $211.52. At the same-ticker level, Dunbar's prior five sales at SXI show a mixed timing pattern: two of five 90-day outcomes were negative (well-timed), with sales in March 2024 each followed by declines of 8.5% and 9.9%, while three prior sales occurred before 90-day gains of 9.0% to 18.0%. His cross-ticker track record across six prior sells shows 33.33% of those were well-timed by 90-day measure (lower than the typical 50% expected from random timing), suggesting his historical execution has not been particularly precise. Given the current valuation (P/E of 56.98) and strong recent price momentum, this sale by the CEO during an elevated price environment merits observation to see whether the subsequent 90-day period confirms or contradicts his recent historical patterns at this ticker.

CFO Sarcevic sold 3.0K SXI shares at $191.80; stock up 17.2% in 30d, trading -9.0% from 52-week high.

Ademir Sarcevic, Vice President/CFO/Treasurer, sold 3,047 shares worth $584,404.54, reducing his holding by 21.2% from 14,370 to 11,323 shares. The sale occurred at $191.80 while the stock has appreciated 17.2% over the prior 30 days and 25.2% over 90 days, currently trading at $192.55 and -9.0% from its 52-week high of $211.52. His prior open-market sell at this ticker on 2024-11-04 was poorly timed, with the stock rising 0.6% over the subsequent 90 days, and his broader cross-ticker track record shows 0 of 1 prior sells well-timed at the 90-day mark with an average 90-day return of 0.6% after sells. The company's P/E stands at 53.78 with recent quarterly net income of $21.9M on revenue of $207.8M and annual revenue growth of 9.6%.

SXI CIO Arets Max buys 63 shares at $191.00 on 2025-02-12; post-transaction holdings: 1,380 shares

Arets Max (VP; Chief Information Officer) purchased 63 shares at $191.00 on 2025-02-12, increasing his holdings from 1,317 to 1,380 shares (a +4.8% increase in position size). The transaction value was $12,033.00. The purchase was made at a price modestly above the current price of $190.23, but notably above the 52-week low of $154.76 and well below the 52-week high of $211.52, placing it near the lower end of recent trading range. With Standex reporting a -2.8% annual revenue decline and a compressed P/E of 41.53 against modest net income of $857,000, the company faces near-term operational headwinds that provide limited context for characterizing this modest insider addition.

CFO Sarcevic sells 3,800 SXI shares at $181.64 (53-week lows), reducing stake 16.2% to 19.7K shares

Vice President/CFO/Treasurer Ademir Sarcevic sold 3,800 shares of STANDEX INTERNATIONAL CORP/DE/ on 2024-11-04 at $181.64 per share for a total value of $690,250.24, reducing his holdings from 23,486 shares to 19,686 shares. The sale price of $181.64 represents a 11.7% discount to the current market price of $205.61 and sits near the lower end of the 52-week range of $132.98–$205.61. This transaction occurred as the stock has rallied significantly: +13.2% over the prior 30 days and +21.6% over the prior 90 days, and it is now trading at its 52-week high. The company's annual revenue growth is negative at -2.8% while the P/E ratio of 34.27 reflects elevated valuation relative to historical norms. The sale by a senior financial officer at a substantially below-current price, combined with the stock's recent momentum and elevated valuation metrics, represents a material reduction in the insider's direct shareholding stake.
