Mark D Dankberg sells 400,000 VSAT shares for $25.9M via scheduled 10b5-1 plan; retains 1,082,196 shares plus 206,125 RSU derivatives

Mark D Dankberg, Chairman and CEO, executed 5 separate sales totaling 400,000 shares for $25,903,223.99 at prices ranging from $63.95 to $69.00, reducing his non-derivative holdings by 27.0% to 1,082,196 shares. This transaction was part of a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on 2026-03-09, making it scheduled rather than discretionary. The CEO retains substantial non-derivative holdings and carries 206,125 restricted stock units across four separate RSU vehicles, preserving material exposure to the company. His prior trades at VSAT (4 sales through December 2025 and January 2026) were followed by positive 90-day returns ranging from 28.2% to 34.7%, though the stock is currently down 8.7% over the past 30 days and trades at -28.8% from its 52-week high of $89.78.

Director Richard A Baldridge sold 27,122 shares (11.3% of holdings) at $71.74, reducing stake to 213,355 shares.

Director Richard A Baldridge sold 27,122 shares of VSAT at $71.74 on 2026-06-03, reducing his post-transaction holdings to 213,355 shares from 240,477 shares. The sale occurred when the stock was trading -25.2% from its 52-week high of $89.78 and -0.2% over the prior 30 days, yet +53.4% over 90 days. His prior trades at VSAT show a mixed pattern: a 2025-09-11 sale followed by a +20.3% 90-day return (the stock rose after he sold), while two buys in September 2024 were followed by negative 90-day returns of -35.2% and -36.3% respectively. Across his cross-ticker history, his two prior sells averaged +6.3% 30-day returns and +17.5% 90-day returns, neither of which were well-timed (well-timed sell rate 0.00%), meaning the stock typically appreciated after his sales. The company's fundamentals show a P/E of 45.39, with net income of $24,968,000 in the latest quarter, though it was unprofitable over its most recent full fiscal year. The timing and size of this sale merit investor observation given the insider's mixed execution record on VSAT and the stock's elevated valuation multiple.

SVP Benjamin Palmer sells 23,808 shares for $1,758,156.69 via pre-arranged 10b5-1 plan at VSAT

Benjamin Edward Palmer (SVP, Pres Commercial) executed two separate sales totaling 23,808 shares for $1,758,156.69 on June 1–2, 2026, pursuant to a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on 2025-12-11. His non-derivative holdings declined from 42,039 shares to 18,231 shares, but he retains 23,592 shares through employee stock options. The sales occurred near the stock's 52-week high range (current price $67.18 is -25.2% from the 52-week high of $89.78), though the company remains unprofitable on a full-year basis despite positive quarterly revenue of $1,157,045,000.00. Because this is a scheduled 10b5-1 transaction rather than a discretionary trade, the timing reflects plan mechanics rather than a discretionary market decision.

SVP/General Counsel Blair Robert James sold 30,411 shares (44.4% of prior holdings) at $46.80–$47.47 for $1.4M on 2026-03-16.

Blair Robert James, SVP and General Counsel of ViaSat, executed 2 separate sales totaling 30,411 shares for $1,430,664.04 at an average price of $47.04, reducing his holdings from 68,519 to 38,108 shares. The sale occurred near the company's 52-week high of $50.18 (current price $48.59 is 3.2% below that peak), and the stock has posted strong 90-day performance of +50.1%. However, this positive momentum and proximity to highs must be weighed against the company's full-year profitability challenge: despite latest-quarter net income of $24,968,000.00, the company was unprofitable over its most recent full fiscal year. The substantial reduction in the General Counsel's stake—a -44.4% drawdown—occurs in a context of operational headwinds, warranting scrutiny of management's internal outlook relative to the stock's recent strength.

SVP Miller sells 35,385 shares of VSAT for $1.6M at $45.03 blended average; retains 26,512 shares post-sale.

Miller Craig Andrew, SVP and President of Viasat Government, sold 35,385 shares across 2 separate transactions for $1,593,317.01, reducing his holdings by 57.2% from 61,897 to 26,512 shares. The sales occurred at a blended average price of $45.03, which is 5.9% below the current price of $47.84 and well below the 52-week high of $48.85. While the company achieved $1.2B in quarterly revenue with modest 5.5% annual growth, it remains unprofitable on a full-year basis despite showing $25.0M net income in the latest quarter. The substantial reduction in the executive's position occurs in a stock that has appreciated 9.4% over the past 30 days and 36.1% over the past 90 days, following a recovery from a 52-week low of $7.70.

VSAT CEO Mark Dankberg sold 100,000 shares at $40.34 on 2026-01-06; retains 1,434,993 shares. Stock now trading at $38.72.

Mark Dankberg, Chairman and CEO of ViaSat, sold 100,000 shares (representing 6.5% of his pre-transaction holdings) for $4,033,740.00 on 2026-01-06 at $40.34 per share. The company's most recent quarter showed $1.1B in revenue with a $-61.4M net loss, continuing a pattern of full-year unprofitability. The sale follows three prior sales at VSAT on 2025-12-15, though outcomes on those recent trades remain unmeasurable. At the transaction price of $40.34, the CEO was selling above the current market price of $38.72, though below the 52-week high of $43.46. The timing and context—unprofitable operations combined with consistent executive selling activity—merit monitoring for signals about management's forward-looking expectations for the business.

VSAT CEO Dankberg sold 200,000 shares for $7,018,433.13 via scheduled 10b5-1 plan adopted 2025-09-15

Mark D Dankberg, Chairman and CEO, executed 3 separate sales totaling 200,000 shares for $7,018,433.13 on 2025-12-15 at a blended average price of $35.09. This sale reduced his holdings from 1,734,993 shares to 1,534,993 shares, a reduction of approximately 11.5% of his pre-transaction position. The transaction was executed under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on 2025-09-15, meaning it was scheduled rather than discretionary. As a scheduled sale under a 10b5-1 plan, this transaction reflects a predetermined disposition schedule set three months prior and does not signal discretionary timing decisions by the insider.

CFO Chase Garrett L. (VSAT) sold 20,000 shares across 3 transactions for $697,367.53 on 2025-12-15 under 10b5-1 plan

Chase Garrett L., SVP and Chief Financial Officer, executed 3 separate sales totaling 20,000 shares for $697,367.53 under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on 2025-09-15. This represents a 61.0% reduction in his post-transaction holdings of 12,771 shares from a pre-transaction level of 32,771 shares. Because this activity is governed by a scheduled 10b5-1 plan rather than discretionary open-market activity, the sale reflects an execution of a predetermined schedule rather than a response to current market conditions.

Chief Accounting Officer Duffy Shawn Lynn sells 51,480 shares (89.5% of holdings) for $1,873,022.49 at VSAT

Duffy Shawn Lynn, SVP and Chief Accounting Officer, executed 2 separate sales on 2025-12-12 totaling 51,480 shares for $1,873,022.49, reducing his position from 57,501 shares to 6,021 shares and divesting 89.5% of his holding. The transaction occurred at a blended average price of $36.38, and the stock currently trades at $34.40, putting the company 13.6% below its 52-week high of $39.82. VSAT is unprofitable with net income of -$61,444,000 against revenue of $1,140,893,000, though the company achieved 5.5% annual revenue growth. While his prior sale at this ticker (2025-09-15) showed a subsequent 90-day gain of 9.0%, indicating the earlier sale was poorly timed, this large liquidation—divesting nearly all open holdings—warrants attention given the executive's role overseeing accounting at an unprofitable company.

CFO Chase Garrett L. sold 25,000 shares of VSAT at $33.33 on 2025-09-15, reducing stake by -43.3% to 32,771 shares ($833.2K value).

Chase Garrett L., SVP and Chief Financial Officer, executed a substantial reduction of his VSAT shareholding, liquidating 25,000 shares (representing -43.3% of his pre-transaction position) at $33.33 per share. This sale is notable given the company's current profitability challenges: the latest quarter shows net income of $-56,434,000.00, and the company was unprofitable over its most recent full fiscal year. The CFO's action reduces his remaining holdings to 32,771 shares. While the stock has appreciated 143.1% over 90 days and is trading -1.7% from its 52-week high of $32.92, the decision to divest a material portion of CFO holdings during a period of negative earnings warrants attention to what CFO-level capital deployment decisions may signal about near-term cash priorities or position management.
