GC/EVP Poli Francis C sold 19,696 shares (26.1% of holdings) at $65.24–$66.00, netting $1.3M on Feb 11–12.
Francis C, general counsel and EVP, executed three separate sales over two days, disposing of 19,696 shares for $1,293,667.04 at a blended average price of $65.68, reducing holdings from 75.4K to 55.7K shares. The current stock price of $66.14 is only 0.7% above the blended transaction price, indicating these sales occurred near current market levels and -25.7% from the 52-week high of $89.00. His prior trades at CNS (two sells in September 2024) posted 90-day returns of +5.3% and +4.7%, indicating the stock subsequently rose after those sales—a poorly-timed pattern—with 0 of 2 prior same-ticker sales achieving negative 90-day returns. Given the stock's recent weakness (−2.6% in 30 days, −25.7% from peak), the timing of this substantial stake reduction in aggregate size and across multiple days warrants context but no explicit timing signals emerge from the company's fundamentals, which show steady revenue growth of +5.7% and net income of $41.7M on quarterly revenue of $141.7M.
