Edward P Garden

Director Edward P Garden buys 320,067 shares of FBIN at $40.60 for $13.0M, expanding holdings 8.8% amid strong 30-day momentum (+16.2%) but stock still -33.8% from 52-week high.

Edward P Garden purchased 320,067 shares at $40.60 on 2026-06-10, bringing his total holdings to 3,940,234 shares—a net addition of 8.8% to his position. This buy occurs against a backdrop of mixed price signals: the stock is up +16.2% over 30 days but down -0.5% over 90 days and trading -33.8% below its 52-week high of $64.84. Notably, Garden's three prior purchases at FBIN (all in May 2026) each delivered positive 90-day returns of +21.5%, +15.9%, and +21.0%, demonstrating a pattern of well-timed entry points at this specific ticker. However, his cross-ticker track record shows a 90-day win rate of only 35.00% with an average 90-day return of -1.8%, suggesting his historical timing success at FBIN may not be representative of his broader market acumen.

Director Edward P Garden purchased 57,400 shares of FBIN at $34.89 on 2026-05-20 for $2.0M despite stock down 46.0% from 52-week high.

Edward P Garden purchased 57,400 shares for $2,002,686.00, increasing his holdings to 3,620,167 shares, a modest 1.6% increase to his existing position. The purchase occurs when FBIN has declined 46.0% from its 52-week high of $64.84 and is down 35.3% over the past 90 days, though the stock remains above its 52-week low of $32.34. Garden's cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior buys with an average 90-day return of -7.4% and a 20% win rate, indicating his historical purchase timing has not been reliably successful. The company's fundamentals show stabilizing metrics with a P/E of 15.36 and positive net income of $24.2M on revenue of $1.0B, though annual revenue growth is negative at -3.2%, which may contextualize the valuation decline.

Garden's cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior buys with an average 90-day return of -7.4% and a 90-day win rate of 20.00%, indicating a historical pattern where his purchases have not subsequently appreciated. The company reports revenue of $1,011,300,000.00 with annual growth of -3.2% year-over-year, a P/E of 15.36, and a market cap of $4,177,655,463.34.

Director Edward P Garden purchased 102,903 shares of MIDD for $14,996,481.23 across 7 transactions (2025-12-11 to 2025-12-15)

Edward P Garden, a director at Middleby Corp, executed 7 separate purchases totaling 102,903 shares for $14,996,481.23 over a four-day period, increasing his holdings by 3.1% to 3.38M shares. The purchases occurred at prices ranging from $143.57 to $146.92, with a blended average of $145.73, and come at a time when the stock has appreciated 24.8% over 30 days and 9.4% over 90 days. However, his prior trading pattern at MIDD presents a concerning signal: across 5 prior buy transactions at this ticker, all generated negative 90-day returns (ranging from -2.6% to -5.0%), with zero of those prior buys achieving positive returns at the 90-day mark. Against this historical backdrop of poorly-timed purchases at the same ticker, combined with a cross-ticker buy history showing -2.8% average 30-day returns and -12.3% average 90-day returns with a 0.00% win rate, the current large accumulation warrants attention as an outlier event, though the company is reporting negative net income of $-513.0M in the latest quarter and flat annual revenue growth.

Director Edward P Garden purchases 137,000 shares for $20,279,598.70 at MIDD in 5 transactions.

This represents a 4.4% increase in his holdings, bringing his post-transaction stake to 3,276,834 shares. The scale and timing of the acquisition is notable: it follows a pattern of four prior purchases at MIDD within a five-day window (2025-05-13 through 2025-05-16), indicating sustained accumulation at a moment when the stock is trading 14.9% below its 52-week high of $172.89. The company is profitable with $906,627,000.00 in quarterly revenue and a P/E of 18.12, though annual revenue growth is declining at -4.0%. The insider's cross-ticker track record shows 9 prior buys, and his MIDD-specific history shows 5 consecutive buy transactions over 4 days, suggesting deliberate and methodical position-building rather than incidental rebalancing.

The stock has recovered 18.8% over the prior 30 days, suggesting recent momentum. Garden's same-ticker history at MIDD shows five prior buys within the preceding week (May 9–13, 2025), establishing a pattern of persistent buying at this ticker, though near-term outcome measurement is not yet available given the recency of those trades.

Edward P Garden, a Director at Middleby Corp, executed 5 separate purchases totaling 452,397 shares for $65,551,806.18 between May 9 and May 13, 2025, at prices ranging from $138.87 to $149.81 with a blended average of $144.90. This acquisition increased his holdings from 2,635,866 shares to 3,088,263 shares, representing a net increase of +17.2% of his pre-transaction position.

In the context of MIDD's recent fundamentals—$906.6M quarterly revenue, $92.4M net income, -4.0% annual revenue growth, and an 18.46 P/E ratio—the director's substantial $65.6M personal commitment represents material accumulation by a senior insider at a price point below recent peaks.
