SVP Zapolsky executes 6 scheduled sales totaling 15,450 shares for $4,117,251.78 at AMZN under 10b5-1 plan

David Zapolsky, Senior Vice President at Amazon, executed 6 separate sales on 2026-05-21 and 2026-05-22 totaling 15,450 shares for $4,117,251.78 at a blended average price of $266.49. The transaction is part of a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan, meaning the sales were scheduled rather than discretionary. Post-transaction, Zapolsky retains 41,190 non-derivative shares, down 27.3% from his pre-transaction holding of 56,640 shares, though he maintains derivative holdings totaling 174,136 shares across two Restricted Stock Unit Awards. Across Zapolsky's cross-ticker track record, his 20 prior sales show an average 90-day return of +10.0%, while his 5 prior sales at AMZN specifically averaged 90-day returns ranging from +28.0% to +30.0%, reflecting a pattern of subsequent stock appreciation after his prior divestments at this ticker.

Significance 7/10

Zapolsky (SVP Amazon) sold 17.7K shares for $3.6M; prior AMZN sales 5-of-5 well-timed at 90d mark

Zapolsky executed 6 separate sales totaling 17,749 shares for $3,645,614.42 at prices ranging from $204.15 to $208.02 on February 23–24, 2026, reducing his holdings by 30.1% to 41,190 shares. His cross-ticker track record across 20 prior sells shows a 90d well-timed rate of 65.00%, but more notably, his entire AMZN-specific history (5 prior trades) achieved 5-of-5 well-timed outcomes at the 90-day mark, with all yielding negative 90d returns between -5.1% and -6.3%. Current stock price ($208.56) remains elevated relative to the blended sale average ($205.40), and the 52-week price context shows AMZN is -17.9% from its peak. This filing's significance lies in the consistent execution pattern: Zapolsky's prior AMZN sells have systematically preceded price declines, and a substantial 17.7K-share reduction at near-peak valuations aligns with that historical pattern, though this sale itself cannot yet be evaluated for timing outcome.

Significance 5/10

David Zapolsky sold 20,670 shares of AMZN for $4,559,465.97 in 6 separate transactions on Nov 21-24, reducing stake by 33.4%

Senior Vice President David Zapolsky executed 6 separate sales totaling 20,670 shares for $4,559,465.97 on November 21-24, 2025, at prices ranging from $215.86 to $222.49 (blended average $220.58), reducing his holdings from 61,860 to 41,190 shares. The current stock price of $229.67 stands 4.1% above the blended transaction price, indicating the sales preceded subsequent appreciation. His cross-ticker track record shows a 90-day well-timed rate of 35.00%, but at AMZN specifically, only 1 of 5 prior sales (20%) were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with recent same-ticker sells showing mixed outcomes (most recently +3.9% 30-day, -2.5% 90-day on 2025-08-22). The scale of this transaction—a one-third reduction of position—is material and distinct from his smaller prior AMZN dispositions, though the absence of a 10b5-1 plan notation limits ability to infer whether execution was discretionary or scheduled.

Significance 5/10

David Zapolsky (SVP) sold 20,670 shares of AMZN for $4,595,797.75 across 3 transactions on Aug 21–22

Zapolsky executed 3 separate sales totaling 20,670 shares for $4,595,797.75 at a blended average price of $222.34, reducing his holdings by 31.9% from 64,780 to 44,110 shares. The stock currently trades at $227.94, modestly above his transaction prices. His prior 5 trades at AMZN all showed positive 90-day returns (ranging from +10.0% to +13.6%), indicating he has historically sold ahead of continued gains at this ticker; the 0 well-timed rate on those same-ticker sales means they were consistently ill-timed for capturing declines. The current filing's modest 90-day momentum (+10.6% over the past 90 days) suggests the stock has continued its post-sale trend, but this large discretionary equity reduction warrants monitoring given the magnitude of the stake reduction and the insider's historical pattern of selling into strength rather than before downturns.

Significance 7/10

Amazon SVP David Zapolsky sold 20,670 shares for $4.2M across 5 transactions (May 21-22) at blended avg $202.00

David Zapolsky (SVP) executed 5 separate sales totaling 20,670 shares for $4,175,441.74, reducing his Amazon holdings by 30.5% from 67,700 to 47,030 shares. Notably, Zapolsky's prior 4 measurable sales at Amazon (all in February 2025) were well-timed: each was followed by 90-day declines of -7.3% to -8.6%, indicating a consistent pattern of selling into strength before subsequent pullbacks. The current stock price of $200.99 is -17.0% from the 52-week high of $242.06, yet Zapolsky's transactions at $200.75–$203.42 occurred while the stock was still +11.3% over the prior 30 days, suggesting execution during a recent rally. His cross-ticker track record shows a 42.11% well-timed rate with a 90-day average return of +5.3% across 20 prior sells, but his same-ticker history at Amazon is the more relevant baseline: 4 of 4 prior Amazon sales were well-timed, establishing a meaningful precedent for this latest exit's significance.

Significance 6/10

SVP Zapolsky sold 25,060 shares ($5.5M) over two days at blended avg $218.25; stock now at $212.80 (-12.1% from 52-week high).

David Zapolsky executed 6 separate sales totaling 25,060 shares for $5,469,364.17 across February 21–24, 2025, reducing his holdings from 75,010 to 49,950 shares (-33.4%). The sale occurred near AMZN's recent weakness: the stock is trading -12.1% from its 52-week high and down 9.4% over 30 days. Zapolsky's cross-ticker track record shows a 90-day well-timed rate of 15.00%, meaning his prior sells have rarely preceded declines; by contrast, his 5 most recent AMZN-specific sales (all on 2024-11-21) were universally poorly timed—all posted positive 90-day returns (ranging +11.6% to +15.4%), indicating the insider sold before subsequent rallies. This filing represents a material reduction in his stake at a moment when the stock is under pressure, warranting scrutiny of the motivation and whether it signals concerns distinct from his historical pattern of selling into strength.

Significance 4/10

Zapolsky (SVP) sold 11.7K AMZN shares for $2.3M across 8 transactions on 2024-11-21, reducing stake by 16.2%

David Zapolsky, Senior Vice President at Amazon, executed 8 separate sales totaling 11,680 shares for $2,338,660.95 on 2024-11-21, reducing his holdings from 72,070 shares to 60,390 shares. The blended average sale price was $200.23; the stock currently trades at $201.45, suggesting minimal price movement since the sales. His cross-ticker track record shows 15 prior sells with a 90-day well-timed rate of 20.00%, while at AMZN specifically, 2 of his 5 prior sales achieved negative 90-day returns (well-timed outcomes). The 16.2% reduction in stake represents a material level of share disposition by a senior executive, but comes amid Amazon's strong quarterly fundamentals: $158.9B in revenue, $15.3B in net income, and 11.8% annual revenue growth. Without a disclosed 10b5-1 plan or additional context regarding the timing or motivation, the transaction reflects a routine but notable reduction in executive exposure to the company's equity.

Significance 4/10

David Zapolsky sold 9,490 shares at blended avg $180.88, retaining 64,610 shares; prior AMZN sales mixed on timing.

David Zapolsky, Senior Vice President at Amazon, executed 3 separate sales on 2024-08-21 totaling 9,490 shares for $1,716,563.44, reducing his holdings by 12.8% to 64,610 shares. The sales occurred at prices ranging from $180.26 to $182.07, with a blended average of $180.88, which is 2.2% above the current price of $177.04. His prior trading history at Amazon shows mixed timing outcomes: two of four measurable prior sells achieved positive 90-day returns (well-timed by the standard where stock declines after a sell), while two showed negative returns. This filing provides a data point on directional activity by a senior executive but does not suggest a clear conviction signal given the mixed historical outcomes at this ticker and the relatively modest reduction in total holdings.

Significance 3/10

Zapolsky (SVP) sold 4,710 AMZN shares at $195.00 on 2024-06-27; holds 59,500 post-sale.

David Zapolsky, Senior Vice President, sold 4,710 shares of Amazon at $195.00, reducing holdings by 7.3% to 59,500 shares. The sale occurred when the stock was near its 52-week high ($197.85), with subsequent price appreciation to $197.20 by the filing date—the stock rose +2.2% in the 30 days post-transaction, consistent with his cross-ticker track record showing an average 30-day return of +2.6% following prior sales. His same-ticker history at AMZN shows five prior sales, none of which were well-timed at the 90-day horizon, with returns ranging from +2.2% to +5.9% over 30 days—suggesting this insider has not historically sold before declines at this stock.
