CONKLIN BRET A

EVP Conklin sells 20,200 shares at avg $43.44 for $877,545.28; reduces stake 26.4% to 56,362 shares.

Bret A. Conklin, EVP of Horace Mann Educators Corp (HMN), executed 3 separate sales totaling 20,200 shares for $877,545.28 on May 28–29, 2025, reducing his holdings by 26.4% to 56,362 shares. The blended average price of $43.44 aligns closely with the current price of $43.43 and sits within 1.2% of the 52-week high of $43.96, suggesting the sales occurred near peak valuation. Notably, Conklin's prior 4 sales at HMN achieved a 100% well-timed rate at the 90-day mark, with all four trailing sales showing negative 90-day returns; this track record at the specific ticker demonstrates consistent downside capture. The company's fundamentals remain solid—revenue of $416,400,000.00, net income of $38,200,000.00, annual revenue growth of +6.9%, and a P/E of 15.46—but the material reduction in an executive's stake at peak price warrants monitoring of subsequent stock performance and any developments in the company's strategic outlook.

Bret Conklin, Executive Vice President of Horace Mann Educators, executed 4 separate sales totaling 27,017 shares for $1,121,294.56 at a blended average price of $41.50 on November 7-8, 2024. The sale reduced his holdings by 31.4%, from 85,913 shares to 58,896 shares post-transaction. The stock is currently trading at $42.06, near its 52-week high of $42.64, and has gained 20.6% over the past 30 days and 25.8% over the past 90 days, suggesting strong recent momentum at the time of the sale. With a P/E of 16.49 and annual revenue growth of 7.9%, the company shows stable fundamentals, but the size and pattern of this multi-tranche sale warrants review of the filing details and any associated disclosures regarding timing and authorization.
