TDG director Howley sells 10,132 shares for $11,964,054.47 on 2026-05-18 via scheduled 10b5-1 plan
Howley W Nicholas, a director at TransDigm Group, executed 25 separate sales totaling 10,132 shares for $11,964,054.47 on 2026-05-18, reducing his holdings by 32.0% from 31,679 to 21,547 shares. The transaction was conducted under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan, meaning it was scheduled rather than discretionary. His prior sales at TDG (5 trades on 2026-04-20) have shown negative 30-day and 90-day returns ranging from -8.9% to -9.6%, while his cross-ticker track record shows average 90-day returns of -7.5% following sells. With the stock currently trading at $1,182.35 against a 52-week high of $1,623.82 (-27.2%), investors should monitor whether this scheduled reduction reflects prior planning windows or broader positioning, though the 10b5-1 structure limits inference about current conviction.
