EVP Andrew B. Nace bought 3,000 shares at $5.76–$5.98 on 2025-08-13; 4 insiders bought KRO within 14 days as stock trades -52.5% from 52-week high.

Andrew B. Nace, Executive Vice President, executed 4 separate purchases totaling 3,000 shares for $17,500.00 at prices ranging $5.76–$5.98, raising his holdings from 16,453 to 19,453 shares. This filing occurs within a broader cluster buy pattern: 4 other insiders also purchased within the past 14 days. The stock currently trades at $6.16, down -52.5% from its 52-week high of $12.96 and down -13.0% over 90 days, suggesting the company operates in a depressed price regime. His prior same-ticker trades show mixed outcomes (2 of 5 prior buys were well-timed at the 90-day horizon), while his cross-ticker track record shows a 66.67% 90-day win rate with +5.0% average return; however, fundamentals remain stressed with net income at $-9.2M against revenue of $494.4M. The clustering of insider purchases during significant price decline warrants attention to whether management perceives value or faces other contextual factors.

EVP Andrew Nace bought 500 shares of KRO at $11.34 on 2024-08-19; holdings now 16,453 shares (+3.1%)

Andrew Nace, Executive Vice President, purchased 500 shares of Kronos Worldwide at $11.34 on 2024-08-19, increasing his holdings to 16,453 shares. This follows two earlier purchases at the same ticker on 2024-08-15 and 2024-08-16, suggesting consecutive buying activity over a 4-day window. However, his prior trade history at KRO is cautionary: three buys in August 2023 each generated negative 90-day returns (-11.1%, -11.1%, and -11.2%), with zero of his prior KRO purchases proving well-timed at the 90-day mark. The stock currently trades at $11.28, just 0.5% below the purchase price, while the company faces significant headwinds: annual revenue declined 13.7% year-over-year, it was unprofitable over the most recent full fiscal year, and the P/E ratio stands at 564.00. The repetitive buying pattern across three consecutive trading days warrants closer examination of whether this reflects personal conviction or scheduled activity.

EVP NACE buys 500 KRO shares over 2 days at $11.36 avg; stock down 13.6% in 90 days, prior KRO buys all negative 90-day returns

NACE ANDREW B, Executive Vice President, executed 2 separate purchases totaling 500 shares for $5,677.50 on 2024-08-15 and 2024-08-16 at a blended average price of $11.36. The current price of $11.33 is -21.4% from the 52-week high of $14.41 and the stock has declined 13.6% over the past 90 days. Critically, his prior 4 open-market purchases at KRO (all executed on 2023-08-07) produced 90-day returns of -14.0%, -14.0%, -14.1%, and -14.2%, with 0 of 4 prior buys well-timed at the 90-day mark. While his cross-ticker track record shows 12 prior buys with an average 90-day return of +6.3% and a 90-day win rate of 66.67%, his same-ticker history at KRO reveals a consistent pattern of poor timing on purchases. Additionally, the company's fundamentals are concerning: annual revenue growth is -13.7%, the company was unprofitable over its most recent full fiscal year, and the P/E ratio of 566.50 reflects extremely elevated valuation relative to near-zero profitability.
