Durbin, EVP and Chief Operating Officer, executed two separate sales totaling 6,520 shares for $3,111,829.38 on 2026-03-10, reducing his holdings by 44.4% from 14,670 to 8,150 shares. The blended average sale price of $477.27 sits 2.7% below the current price of $490.41, placing the transaction near recent resistance; the stock trades at -3.7% from its 52-week high of $509.34. His prior sales at Linde have yielded mixed outcomes: two of four prior trades showed positive 90-day returns (+5.7% and +5.6% in May 2025), while two showed negative returns (-0.6% in August 2024 and -7.6% in March 2024), indicating a 50% well-timed rate at this ticker. The fundamental backdrop shows a mature large-cap (market cap $227.3B, P/E 30.59, annual revenue growth +3.0%) trading with valuation momentum: 30-day price momentum is +6.5% and 90-day is +17.8%. This large open-market disposition by a top executive warrants monitoring for subsequent price action.

Durbin (EVP, North America) sells 7,261 shares at $456.42 avg; prior trades at LIN 100% well-timed at 90-day mark

Sean Durbin executed two separate sales totaling 7,261 shares (7.3K shares) for $3,314,272.01 ($3.3M), reducing his holdings at LIN by 47.1% from 15,412 to 8,150 shares. The blended average transaction price was $456.42, and the stock currently trades at $467.95, indicating the sales occurred slightly below recent market levels. His prior two sales at LIN both exhibited negative 90-day returns (-0.6% and -7.6%), establishing a 100% well-timed pattern at the 90-day mark at this ticker. Against a backdrop of slowing fundamental growth (annual revenue growth +0.5%) and elevated valuation (P/E 33.35), the timing of this large disposal aligns with his established pattern of selling before subsequent declines at LIN, though current price action (+4.4% over 30 days) does not yet reflect a post-sale decline.

EVP Sean Durbin sells 4,169 LIN shares at $456.42, reducing position 33.8%; prior LIN sale showed -7.6% 90-day return.

Sean Durbin, EVP of North America at Linde, sold 4,169 shares on 2024-08-16 for $1,902,814.98, reducing his holdings by 33.8% from 12,319 to 8,150 shares. His prior sale at LIN on 2024-03-12 delivered a -7.6% 90-day return, and his cross-ticker track record shows a 100.00% well-timed rate on prior sells with an average 90-day return of -7.6%. The stock has since moved +3.0% in 30 days and +5.4% in 90 days from this transaction, suggesting the timing did not repeat his prior advantage. With Linde trading near 52-week highs (3.5% below peak) and the company reporting a -1.5% annual revenue decline, the scale and pattern of this reduction warrant attention relative to the company's recent growth trajectory.
