Significance 3

VLTO CEO Jennifer Honeycutt sells 7,097 shares at $95.00 under pre-arranged 10b5-1 plan; holds 124,085 shares post-transaction plus 14,195 options.

Jennifer Honeycutt, VLTO's President and CEO, sold 7,097 shares (7.1K shares) for $674,215.00 ($674.2K) on 2026-07-17 as part of a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on 2026-02-25. This is a scheduled, non-discretionary transaction: the timing and quantity were locked in months in advance, so no inference about current confidence or market outlook should be drawn from the execution date. The sale reduced her non-derivative holdings from 131,182 to 124,085 shares (-5.4%), while 14,195 option shares remain in her derivative holdings. Across her same-ticker history at VLTO, prior sells have been mixed (ranging from -8.1% to +10.6% over 90 days), offering no clear directional signal; the cross-ticker track record of -1.7% average 90-day return after 8 prior sells is immaterial to this stock's performance. VLTO trades at $90.18 today, 18.1% below its 52-week high of $110.11, and the company shows solid fundamentals (revenue $1.4B, net income $254.0M, annual growth +6.0%, P/E 22.83).

Significance 4

SVP Melissa Kapity sold 14,840 shares ($1.4M) at $96.60; holdings cut by 50.2% post-transaction

Melissa Kapity, SVP Water Quality at Veralto Corp, executed 3 separate sales totaling 14,840 shares for $1,433,544.00 at $96.60 on 2026-02-27, reducing her holdings from 29,555 shares to 14,715 shares. Her cross-ticker track record shows an average 90-day return of +13.0% after her prior 20 sells, with a 0.00% well-timed rate—meaning her prior sales consistently missed subsequent gains. At her prior 5 trades at VLTO specifically, the pattern continued: all 5 prior sales were followed by positive 90-day returns (ranging +12.7% to +13.1%), indicating poor timing at this ticker as well. The current stock price of $95.64 is -12.9% from the 52-week high and down -3.4% over 30 days, placing the trade at a relative valley in recent price action; however, given the historical timing pattern, this does not necessarily signal forward-looking concern about the fundamentals.

Veralto CEO Jennifer Honeycutt sold 10,646 shares at $106.26 for $1.1M, reducing holdings by 9.1% to 106,219 shares.

Jennifer Honeycutt, Veralto's President and CEO, executed an open-market sale of 10,646 shares at $106.26 on 2025-08-29, generating $1,131,243.96 in proceeds. The sale reduced her holdings from 116,865 shares to 106,219 shares, a 9.1% reduction. Across her prior 5 trades at VLTO, 3 of 5 sells achieved negative 90-day returns, indicating a 60% well-timed rate at this ticker. Her cross-ticker track record shows a 71.43% well-timed rate on 7 prior sells with an average 90-day return of -1.2%. The company's fundamentals remain solid with $1.4B in quarterly revenue, $222.0M in net income, and a 31.24 P/E ratio. At $105.28 current price, the stock trades -7.3% from its 52-week high of $113.60, having appreciated 6.4% over 90 days and 0.5% over 30 days.

Significance 6

SVP Melissa Aquino sells 31,689 shares of VLTO for $2,968,244.69; reduces holding by 64.5%

Melissa Aquino, SVP of Water Quality at Veralto Corp, executed 22 separate sales on 2025-05-01 totaling 31,689 shares for $2,968,244.69 at a blended average price of $93.67. This sale reduced her post-transaction holdings to 17,434 shares from a pre-transaction position of 49,123 shares, representing a net reduction of 64.5% of her prior holdings. The current stock price of $95.69 stands 15.8% below the 52-week high of $113.60, and the multiple-transaction structure executed at closely-clustered prices ($93.54–$93.68 range) reflects programmatic execution rather than discrete decision points. For an insider holding a senior operational role at a $23.7B market-cap company with a P/E of 28.39 and recent quarterly net income of $225.0M, a substantial reduction in equity exposure warrants investor attention to whether this reflects changes in conviction or personal portfolio considerations.

Veralto President & CEO Honeycutt sells 10,418 VLTO shares at $95.00; stock down 17.1% from 52-week high

Jennifer Honeycutt, President and CEO, sold 10,418 shares of Veralto at $95.00 on 2025-04-30, reducing her holdings from 116,637 to 106,219 shares (-8.9%). The sale occurs as VLTO trades at $94.21, down 17.1% from its 52-week high of $113.60 and 8.9% lower over the past 90 days. Honeycutt's prior trading activity at VLTO shows a consistent pattern: all 3 measurable prior sales at this ticker were followed by negative 90-day returns, with the most recent sales on 2025-03-24 and 2025-02-25 showing -8.1% and -2.4% 30-day performance respectively. Her cross-ticker track record demonstrates a 100.00% well-timed sell rate across 6 prior sales, though with modest average 90-day underperformance of -4.4%. The current sale occurs during a period of stock weakness (30-day -3.5%, 90-day -8.9%) in a company with $1.3B quarterly revenue, $225.0M net income, and a 27.96 P/E multiple trading well below its recent high.

CEO Jennifer Honeycutt sold 10,414 shares of VLTO at $98.56 on 2025-03-24; 4 of 4 prior sells well-timed to subsequent declines.

Jennifer Honeycutt, President and CEO, sold 10,414 shares at $98.56 on 2025-03-24, reducing her holdings by 8.2% to 116,637 shares. Her prior trades at Veralto show a consistent pattern: 4 of 4 measurable prior sells at VLTO resulted in negative 90-day returns (-6.4%, -6.4%, -3.6%, and -1.1%), indicating well-timed exits ahead of subsequent declines. Her cross-ticker track record similarly shows a 100.00% well-timed rate on sells with an average 90-day return of -4.4%, suggesting predictive accuracy. The stock is currently -14.0% from its 52-week high of $113.60 and has declined 5.6% over the past 90 days.

CEO Jennifer Honeycutt sells 10,414 VLTO shares at $100.35; stock now -12.2% from 52-week high with prior timing track record 100% well-timed.

CEO Jennifer Honeycutt sold 10,414 shares at $100.35 on 2025-02-25, reducing her holdings by 9.1% to 104,496 shares. The sale occurred as the stock trades 12.2% below its 52-week high of $113.60 and has declined 3.4% over 30 days and 7.6% over 90 days. Her cross-ticker track record across 4 prior open-market sales shows a 100% well-timed rate at the 90-day mark, with average 90-day returns of -4.4%, indicating she has consistently sold before subsequent declines. At this same ticker (VLTO), her prior 4 trades show identical timing strength: all 4 prior sales were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with three showing negative returns and one showing modest gains before deterioration. This sale extends a consistent pattern of exiting positions ahead of downward price movement, though the current $24.7B market cap and stable net income of $219.0M provide fundamental context separate from timing signals.

CEO Honeycutt sells 13,190 shares for $1,452,878.50; holds 138.5K shares post-sale; stock near 52-week high

Jennifer Honeycutt, President and CEO of Veralto Corp, executed 2 separate sales totaling 13,190 shares for $1,452,878.50 at $110.15 on 2024-09-30, reducing her holdings by 8.7% to 138,546 shares. The sales occurred while the stock traded at $111.28, just 1.0% below its 52-week high of $112.43, and after a 16.7% gain over the prior 90 days. Her prior 2 sales at VLTO (in July and August 2024) showed mixed timing outcomes: the July sale gained 6.3% in 30 days, while the August sale declined 1.5% in 30 days. Given the company's modest 3.1% annual revenue growth, elevated P/E of 34.67, and the CEO's continued substantial ownership at 138.5K shares, this sale represents a partial reduction rather than a full exit and does not indicate loss of conviction in the business.

Jennifer Honeycutt, President and CEO, sold 13,191 shares (13.2K shares) for $1,477,128.18 (1.5M) at $111.98 on 2024-08-30, reducing her holdings by 8.7%. The sale occurred near the 52-week high of $112.43 (-1.9% from peak), amid positive momentum: the stock rose 5.2% over 30 days and 9.4% over 90 days. Her cross-ticker track record shows 1 prior sell with a 30-day average return of +6.3%; at VLTO specifically, she completed 1 prior sale on 2024-07-30 (which delivered a 30-day return of +6.3%). The company carries a P/E of 34.35 on $1.3B in quarterly revenue and $203.0M in net income, with modest 3.1% annual revenue growth. While the sale reduces CEO equity exposure, the modest share reduction (8.7% of prior holdings) and retention of 138.5K shares indicates continued material ownership in the company.

The company's fundamentals show a P/E of 33.20 against modest annual revenue growth of 3.1%, suggesting the stock has appreciated significantly on multiple expansion rather than earnings acceleration.
