Forsyth John

CEO Forsyth sells 5,000 shares for $852K, his second open-market disposition in 36 months as stock rallies from lows.

John Forsyth, CEO of Cirrus Logic, sold 5,000 shares for approximately $852,000 on this transaction, representing his second open-market sale in the past three years. The company remains profitable with growing revenue, trading approximately 1.4% below its 52-week high after a strong rally that has lifted the stock more than 20% over the past three months. Forsyth's prior sale earlier this year proved well-timed over a one-month horizon as the stock declined immediately afterward, though the stock subsequently recovered and gained significantly over a longer timeframe, making that exit poorly-timed from a broader perspective. This current sale occurs as the stock has gained momentum from depressed levels, which contrasts with his prior sale at different price levels; without his purchase history available, it's unclear whether he is trimming gains or rebalancing an established position. The sale represents a modest reduction—approximately 6.7% of his holdings—rather than a wholesale exit, suggesting a measured approach to liquidity management rather than a broad loss of confidence in the business.

CEO Forsyth sold 21,806 shares of CRUS at $135.15 on 2026-02-04 for $2.9M; stock now at $142.78.

Forsyth John, the CEO, sold 21,806 shares representing a 22.5% reduction in his holdings, bringing his position from 96,822 shares to 75,016 shares. The sale occurred at $135.15 per share, and the stock has since risen to $142.78 (current price), placing the transaction price 5.4% below the current market level. With the stock already at its 52-week high of $142.78, the timing of this sale relative to recent momentum (+19.3% over 30 days, +20.4% over 90 days) warrants attention. While CIRRUS LOGIC maintains solid fundamentals—$580.6M quarterly revenue, $140.3M net income, and a reasonable 18.03 P/E ratio—the decision by the CEO to divest a meaningful portion of holdings coincides with the stock reaching peak valuation levels.
