CEO Gliklich sold 170,000 shares (170.0K shares) at $37.30 for $6.3M on 2026-02-24, retaining 1.19M shares.

CEO Benjamin Gliklich sold 170,000 shares at $37.30, generating $6,341,000.00 in proceeds while retaining 1,191,078 shares—a -12.5% reduction in his holdings. The sale occurred near the company's 52-week high of $36.71, as the stock has appreciated +28.0% over the past 30 days and +41.7% over the past 90 days following a significant upswing from the $17.50 52-week low. Across his prior five sales at Element Solutions Inc, Gliklich achieved well-timed results on only 1 of 5 trades (90-day basis), with most recent same-ticker sells showing positive subsequent returns; his cross-ticker track record shows a 14.29% well-timed rate with an average 90-day return of +5.8% after sales, indicating his sell timing has historically underperformed random chance. The magnitude of this transaction ($6.3M) and the timing relative to strong recent price momentum merit observation, though the persistent pattern of poorly-timed sells at this ticker and limited conviction signal from remaining holdings suggest routine portfolio management rather than a directional market call.

Significance 5/10

ESI CEO Gliklich sells 117,637 shares at $26.56 for $3.1M; holds 864,521 shares post-transaction (-12.0%)

Benjamin Gliklich, President and CEO of Element Solutions Inc, sold 117,637 shares on 2025-09-18 at $26.56, reducing his holdings by 12.0% from 982,158 to 864,521 shares. The sale occurred at a price 9.6% below the 52-week high of $29.33 and follows a recent 5.8% gain over the prior 30 days, suggesting the sale took place during a partial recovery rather than at the stock's peak. His prior five sales at ESI all resulted in positive 90-day returns (ranging from 2.5% to 14.7%), indicating none were well-timed in terms of selling before declines; this transaction requires monitoring to assess whether the pattern continues or diverges. The company's fundamentals show a market cap of $6.4B with annual revenue growth of 5.3% and a P/E of 26.78, providing modest growth context.
