Brown Hayden executed two separate sales totaling 72,546 shares for $623,800.02 under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on 2025-11-19. The sales occurred at prices of $8.66 and $8.57 per share. His holdings remain substantial at 774,552 shares post-transaction, representing an 8.6% reduction. At the current price of $8.66, the stock is trading -62.1% from its 52-week high of $22.84 and has declined 21.9% over 30 days and 35.0% over 90 days. The underlying business carries a P/E of 9.84 with $195.5M in quarterly revenue and $31.5M in net income, though annual revenue growth has slowed to 2.4%. Because this transaction is governed by a scheduled 10b5-1 plan rather than discretionary execution, the sales reflect predetermined scheduling rather than market-responsive decision-making.

Brown Hayden (CEO) sold 123,152 shares for $1.7M at $13.80; stock down 31.7% in 30 days

Brown Hayden executed 2 separate sales totaling 123,152 shares for $1,698,958.53 at a blended average price of $13.80 on 2026-02-18, reducing his holdings by 13.7%. The transaction occurs against a backdrop of significant recent price weakness: the stock trades at $13.32, down 31.7% over 30 days and 39.8% from its 52-week high of $22.11. Examining Hayden's same-ticker history at UPWK, his most recent 5 prior trades show mixed timing outcomes—3 recent November 2025 sells were followed by 30-day gains (6.0% to 13.2%), suggesting those sales preceded temporary rebounds, though one earlier 90-day outcome showed -26.8% (well-timed). His cross-ticker track record across 18 prior sells shows an average 90d return of -4.3% with a 53.33% well-timed rate. The timing of this sale—following steep recent declines but at prices near current levels—does not carry an obvious forward predictive signal. Fundamentals remain modest: P/E of 11.79, 2.4% annual revenue growth, and $29.3M net income on $201.7M revenue, suggesting the valuation compression may reflect market disappointment in growth rather than material operational deterioration.

UPWK CEO Brown Hayden sold 350,000 shares (33.4% of holdings) for $6,827,477.50 in 3 transactions; stock now +28.3% over 90 days.

Brown Hayden, President & CEO of Upwork, executed 3 separate sales totaling 350,000 shares for $6,827,477.50 on 2025-11-25 and 2025-11-26 at an average price of $19.51, reducing his holdings by 33.4% from 1,047,894 to 697,894 shares. The current price of $19.74 is near the transaction price and only -1.6% from the 52-week high, while the stock has gained 28.3% over the past 90 days—timing that is inconsistent with his prior track record at this ticker, where 0 of 5 measurable prior sells achieved negative 90-day returns (the criterion for well-timed sales). His cross-ticker track record shows a 70.00% well-timed sell rate with -7.1% average 90-day return, yet at UPWK specifically his recent sells have posted -19.0%, -15.5%, -14.7%, and -10.0% 30-day returns. The size and concentration of this 350K-share sale—occurring amid strong company fundamentals (11.6% revenue growth, P/E of 10.44, net income of $29,335,000.00 in the latest quarter)—and the continued strength in the stock price merit attention to whether this reflects insider positioning ahead of a potential near-term shift.

Across his cross-ticker open-market sell history, his 90-day well-timed rate is 70.00%, but at Upwork specifically, his 5 prior sells show no measurable negative 90-day outcomes (outcomes remain pending on the most recent trades). The stock has gained 23.1% over 30 days and 33.0% over 90 days leading into this sale. Upwork's fundamentals include $201.7M in latest-quarter revenue, $29.3M net income, and an 11.6% annual revenue growth rate at a P/E of 10.42, suggesting a company in sustained growth with a modest valuation multiple.

The blended average sale price of $19.04 comes as UPWK approaches its 52-week high of $20.07, with the stock up 41.3% over the prior 30 days and 52.7% over 90 days. His prior 5 trades at this ticker show mixed timing results, with 3 measurable 90-day outcomes all well-timed (negative returns, confirming he sold before declines), while his most recent two August sales have not yet shown measurable 90-day results despite strong 30-day gains. His broader cross-ticker track record shows an 87.50% well-timed rate on sells with average 90-day underperformance of -14.3%, indicating a consistent pattern of exiting positions ahead of pullbacks. The near-peak timing of this sale, following sustained momentum and within a context of strong recent price performance, aligns with his demonstrated historical pattern of selling into strength.

Notably, across his 5 prior open-market sales at UPWK, all were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with a consistent pattern of -16.7% to -19.4% declines in the months following those sales. Given the stock's current technical positioning and this insider's demonstrated pattern of well-timed exits at this specific ticker, this filing warrants close attention to whether near-term momentum turns negative.
