Significance 3/10

COO Frank Klein sells 36,860 shares at blended avg $147.42 under pre-arranged 10b5-1 plan; stock now $122.39.

Frank Klein, COO of Rocket Lab, executed 8 separate sales totaling 36,860 shares for $5,433,997.64 on 2026-05-28 under a 10b5-1 trading plan adopted 2025-09-19, reducing his holdings by 3.5% to 1,006,987 shares. The transactions were spread across prices from $143.05 to $149.99, with a blended average of $147.42. The current stock price of $122.39 represents a 19.0% decline from the 52-week high of $151.00, placing the sale prices near the recent peak of the stock's range. As a scheduled transaction under a pre-arranged plan, this sale carries no timing implication; however, the fact that prior sales by this insider at RKLB on 2026-03-04 showed negative 30-day returns (-3.6% to -8.2%) while producing strong 90-day gains (+103.5% to +113.8%) suggests a historical pattern where this ticker has recovered significantly after near-term declines. The company remains unprofitable on a full-year basis with net income of $-45,022,000.00, though quarterly revenue reached $200,348,000.00 with annual growth of +38.0%.

Significance 6/10

COO Frank Klein sells 44,390 shares at blended avg $142.57 for $6.3M via scheduled 10b5-1 plan

Frank Klein, Chief Operations Officer, executed 6 separate sales totaling 44,390 shares for $6,328,838.37 on 2026-05-26 via a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan—a scheduled transaction not reflective of discretionary decision-making. This sale reduces his holdings from 1,088,237 shares to 1,043,847 shares, a -4.1% change. The broader context is notable: Rocket Lab's stock is currently at $148.03, up +88.4% over 30 days and +114.2% over 90 days, while the company posted $200,348,000.00 in latest-quarter revenue but remains unprofitable with full-year net income of $-45,022,000.00. Klein's 5 prior trades at RKLB (all on 2026-03-04) each generated positive 90-day returns ranging from +103.5% to +113.8%, a pattern consistent with his cross-ticker track record showing average 90-day return of +57.8% after prior sales. Because this sale occurs via a preset 10b5-1 plan rather than a discretionary choice, the transaction itself carries limited signal about Klein's current conviction on the stock or business trajectory.

Significance 5/10

COO Klein Frank sold 81,250 shares of RKLB for $5.7M across 10 transactions on 2026-03-02 and 2026-03-04.

Klein Frank (Chief Operations Officer) executed 10 separate sales totaling 81,250 shares for $5,740,939.61, reducing his holdings from 1.17M to 1.09M shares (-6.9%). The sales occurred across two trading days at prices ranging from $66.83 to $73.08, with a blended average of $70.66, compared to the current price of $71.91. The company is currently unprofitable (net income of $-18.3M in the latest quarter) despite strong annual revenue growth of 38.0%, and the stock is down 3.0% over 30 days and down 25.3% from its 52-week high of $96.30. Across his cross-ticker track record, Frank's prior 20 sells had an average 90-day return of +36.1% with a 0.00% well-timed rate, indicating those post-sale stock movements generally rose (poorly timed sells); at RKLB specifically, his prior 5 trades on 2026-01-02 showed 30-day returns ranging from +5.6% to +18.4%, though 90-day outcomes are not yet measurable.

Significance 7/10

COO Frank Klein sold 100,000 RKLB shares (7.9% of holdings) for $7.3M across 9 transactions on 2026-01-02

Frank Klein, Chief Operations Officer of Rocket Lab, executed 9 separate sales totaling 100,000 shares for $7,294,979.96 on 2026-01-02, reducing his stake from 1,269,487 shares to 1,169,487 shares. The sale occurred at a blended average price of $72.95, while the stock currently trades at $86.03—a gain of approximately 18% since the transaction. His prior trades at RKLB show a pattern where 0 of 2 measurable 90-day outcomes were well-timed (stock rose 17.3% and 15.5% respectively after his prior sales, indicating he sold before subsequent gains). The company generated revenue of $155,080,000.00 (latest quarter) with annual growth of +78.3%, though it remains unprofitable with net income of $-18,257,000.00 over the most recent fiscal year. This large discretionary sale by a senior executive warrants investor attention as a potential data point on insider confidence at current levels.

Significance 5/10

RKLB COO Klein Frank sold 41,782 shares ($1.7M) on 2025-11-24 at avg $40.65, retaining 1.27M shares

Frank Klein executed three separate sales totaling 41,782 shares for $1,698,509.21 at blended average price $40.65, representing a 3.2% reduction in his holdings. His prior trades at RKLB (five separate sales in September 2025) all showed positive 30-day returns (+29.8% to +40.1%), though 90-day outcomes remain unmeasurable. The current stock price of $42.60 sits 38.5% below the 52-week high of $69.27 and has fallen 34.0% over the past 30 days, yet the transaction occurred above recent price floor. Rocket Lab reported $155.1M in quarterly revenue with annual revenue growth of +78.3%, but remains unprofitable with net income of -$18.3M for the most recent period, creating a pattern where growth metrics and profitability diverge.

Significance 6/10

COO Frank Klein sold 49,821 shares of RKLB for $2.4M across 7 transactions at blended $48.86; stock up 15.3% in 30d, 57.1% in 90d.

Frank Klein, Chief Operations Officer of Rocket Lab Corp, executed 7 separate sales totaling 49,821 shares for $2.4M across two trading days (September 16–17, 2025) at prices ranging from $47.31 to $51.63, representing a 3.6% reduction in his 1.37M-share position. The timing is notable: Klein sold into momentum, as RKLB has rallied 15.3% over the past 30 days and 57.1% over 90 days from the sale date, yet his stock sits 12.7% below its 52-week high of $54.04. His prior two open-market sales at RKLB (May 30 and June 2, 2025) were both poorly timed, with the stock rising 32.7%–34.6% in the 30 days following those sales and 79.7%–83.3% over 90 days, generating a 0.00% well-timed rate. The company remains unprofitable (net income −$66.4M in the latest quarter despite 78.3% annual revenue growth), adding context to whether liquidity events by senior management reflect operational confidence or capital needs.
