Dippold Michael

DRS CFO Dippold sells 16,330 shares at $45.27 (3/16/2026), reducing stake 38.0%; prior DRS sells 75% well-timed at 90-day.

Dippold's sale of 16,330 shares at $45.27 represents a substantial reduction of his stake by 38.0%, cutting his holding from 43.0K to 26.6K shares. His cross-ticker selling track record shows a 75.00% well-timed rate—when the insider sold, the stock subsequently fell within 90 days—suggesting pattern recognition in market timing. At DRS specifically, 3 of 4 prior sells were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with one particularly sharp sell on 2025-03-18 followed by a 90-day return of +33.5%, though two consecutive 2025-09-12 sales yielded -16.5% 90-day returns. The current stock price of $45.60 is -5.9% from the 52-week high of $48.44, and the stock has surged +40.1% over 90 days, suggesting the trade may occur near a recent momentum peak. Investors should monitor whether this sale precedes a pullback or whether it reflects ordinary portfolio rebalancing unrelated to fundamental outlook.

CFO Michael Dippold sells 19,360 shares at $41.65 for $806,344.00; holds 58.8K shares post-sale

Dippold sold 19,360 shares in two separate transactions on 2025-09-12 at $41.65 per share, reducing his holdings from 78.2K to 58.8K shares (a -24.8% reduction). At his cross-ticker track record, his 2 prior sells averaged +3.2% return over 30 days and +11.4% over 90 days, with a 50% well-timed rate (indicating mixed timing success). His 2 prior sales specifically at DRS had divergent outcomes: the March 2025 sale was well-timed with a 90-day return of +33.5%, while the December 2024 sale was poorly timed with a 90-day return of -10.6%. The current stock price of $42.02 sits 13.2% below the 52-week high of $48.44, within the range where Dippold sold (transactions at $41.65). With the company reporting $829.0M quarterly revenue, $54.0M net income, 14.4% annual growth, and a 44.70 P/E ratio, no earnings surprise or material event appears in the filing to explain discretionary timing. The sale occurred at a modest discount to recent highs but represents a meaningful reduction in his equity stake.

DRS CFO Dippold sells 26,618 shares ($870.4K) at $32.70; holdings fall 27.9% to 68,802 shares; stock up 20.2% in 30 days

Michael Dippold, EVP and CFO, sold 26,618 shares of Leonardo DRS on 2025-03-18 at $32.70, reducing his holdings by 27.9% from 95,420 to 68,802 shares. His prior sell at DRS on 2024-12-02 was well-timed: the stock declined 10.6% over the following 90 days. However, the current environment shows material price recovery: DRS has risen 20.2% in the 30 days post-transaction and 9.4% over 90 days—offsetting the sale price by 6.6% relative to the current $34.95 price. The company's fundamentals remain steady (revenue $812.0M, net income $57.0M, annual growth +14.4%, P/E 37.99), but the sharp post-sale rally suggests the sale occurred before a reversal rather than ahead of deterioration. With a single prior trade providing limited pattern evidence at this ticker, this transaction lacks a clear directional signal.

CFO Michael Dippold sold 25.9K DRS shares at $34.08; holdings reduced 35.5% to 47.0K shares.

Michael Dippold, EVP and CFO of Leonardo DRS, sold 25,880 shares at $34.08 on 2024-12-02, reducing his holdings by 35.5% from 72,908 shares to 47,028 shares post-transaction. The sale occurred at a price -5.5% below the 52-week high of $36.92 and within the 52-week range of $18.04–$36.92. The company trades at a P/E of 46.53 with recent quarterly revenue of $812.0M and net income of $57.0M, reflecting 4.9% annual revenue growth. This significant reduction in a senior financial officer's stake warrants monitoring for context around capital allocation priorities and insider appetite at current valuation levels, though the sale alone does not establish a directional signal about near-term business outlook.
