AutoZone CIO Michelle Borninkhof sold 300 shares ($1,132,500) on 2025-10-27; stock down 14.8% from 52-week high.
Borninkhof sold 300 AZO shares at $3,775.00, reducing her position by 41.9% from 716 to 416 shares held. This is a material reduction in executive ownership. The transaction occurred when AZO is trading -14.8% from its 52-week high and -13.2% over the past 30 days, suggesting the sale did not align with the stock's recent weakness. Historically, Borninkhof's five prior sells at AZO show she has not exhibited well-timed sell discipline at this ticker: all five prior sales were followed by positive 90-day returns, including +14.9% and +14.8% gains from her two June 2025 sales. This current sale at a depressed price relative to recent peaks, combined with her pattern of poor sell timing at this ticker, warrants investor attention to the company's fundamentals and near-term trajectory.
