CEO Holmes John McClain III sold 86,175 shares for $9,561,342.09 in 3 separate transactions, reducing holdings by 26.8% from $110.95 average price

Holmes John McClain III, Chairman, President & CEO, executed 3 separate sales totaling 86,175 shares for $9,561,342.09 at a blended average price of $110.95, reducing his post-transaction holdings to 235,064 shares from 321,239 shares (a 26.8% reduction). The sales occurred at $112.41 on 2026-03-26 and at $107.60 on 2026-03-27, while the current price stands at $103.16, down 13.9% from the 52-week high of $119.77. His cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior sells with a 50.00% well-timed rate, though his 5 recent prior trades at AIR each showed positive 30-day returns (ranging from 2.1% to 16.5%), suggesting his recent timing has favored selling into strength. The company fundamentals remain solid with annual revenue growth of 19.9%, net income of $68,000,000.00 on $845,100,000.00 quarterly revenue, and a P/E of 23.99, indicating the sales occurred in a context of operational growth rather than financial distress.

Holmes John McClain III sold 10,000 shares of AAR CORP at $108.44 on 2026-02-03; stock at 52-week high.

Holmes John McClain III, as Chairman, President & CEO, sold 10,000 shares (10.0K shares) at $108.44, reducing his holdings by 4.1% to 235,064 shares. The sale occurred precisely at the 52-week high of $109.89, with the stock up 30.1% over the prior 30 days and 31.4% over 90 days. Across his cross-ticker track record, McClain's prior 20 sells averaged a -1.6% 90-day return with a 46.67% well-timed rate, but at AIR specifically, his 5 most recent trades (all in January and early February 2026) show no negative 90-day outcomes yet measurable. The timing of this sale at the stock's annual peak, combined with the outsized recent price momentum and McClain's narrow remaining holdings of 235.1K shares, warrants examination of whether this represents a significant position adjustment by the company's top executive during a rally-driven period.

AIR CEO sold 26,749 shares in 3 transactions for $2,650,940.96; still holds 237,064 shares post-sale

CEO Holmes John McClain III executed 3 separate sales totaling 26,749 shares over January 13-14, 2026, at an average price of $99.10, reducing his holdings by 10.1% to 237,064 shares. The stock has since risen to $105.74 (at or near the 52-week high), meaning the sales occurred below current levels. Within his prior AIR trades, 0 of 2 measurable prior sells were well-timed at the 90-day mark—a pattern worth monitoring—though his cross-ticker history shows a 47.06% well-timed rate. The timing and scale of this multi-day liquidation, executed as the stock approached its 52-week high (up +29.8% in 30 days and +27.4% in 90 days), and the recent pattern of weekly sales at this ticker (Jan 12, Jan 2 filings also appear in same-ticker history) warrant tracking of whether this reflects a broader portfolio shift or response to momentum.

CEO Holmes John McClain III sold 30,000 shares of AAR CORP at $97.50 on 2026-01-12 for $2.9M, reducing holdings 11.2%.

Holmes John McClain III, Chairman, President & CEO, sold 30,000 shares at $97.50, which is 0.5% below the 52-week high of $98.23, near the peak of a strong recent rally where the stock has gained 16.8% in 30 days and 18.0% in 90 days. His post-transaction holdings of 237,064 shares represent an 11.2% reduction from his pre-transaction position of 267,064 shares. While his cross-ticker track record shows a 47.06% well-timed sell rate with an average 90-day return of -2.8%, his specific trading history at AIR reveals weaker timing: of his 5 prior AIR trades, only 1 measurable 90-day outcome was negative (the 2025-08-07 sale returned +16.6% over 90 days), suggesting the stock has continued rising after his prior sales at this ticker. The CEO retains a substantial 237.1K share position worth approximately $23.1M at the current $97.71 price, so this does not represent an exit-level reduction.

CEO John McClain III sold 23,077 shares of AAR at $84.12 on 2026-01-02; stock now at $89.46, near 52-week high.

Holmes John McClain III sold 23,077 shares (23.1K shares) at $84.12 on 2026-01-02, reducing his holdings by 8.9% to 237,064 shares post-transaction. The sale executed below the current price of $89.46 and well below the 52-week high of $89.67, as the stock has risen 8.2% over the past 30 days and 6.5% over 90 days. Examining his same-ticker history at AIR, prior sell transactions show mixed outcomes: 0 of 4 prior measurable sales were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with an average 90-day return of +8.6% (averaging the results 16.6%, 4.1%, 4.2%, and 9.6%), meaning the stock typically rose after his sales at this ticker. The company's fundamentals show revenue of $739,600,000.00 and annual revenue growth of +19.9%, though the P/E ratio of 111.82 reflects significant valuation compression relative to earnings. This sale occurs against the backdrop of strong recent stock momentum and his historical difficulty timing exits at this ticker specifically.

CEO Holmes John McClain III sold 38,462 shares of AAR at $83.50, reducing stake by 12.9% to 260,141 shares held

Holmes John McClain III, as Chairman, President & CEO, executed a sale of 38,462 shares at $83.50, totaling $3,211,615.46 and reducing his shareholding by 12.9% to 260,141 shares post-transaction. At his same-ticker history at AIR, 1 of 5 prior sells were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with the most recent sell on 2025-08-07 showing +5.0% 30-day return but the January 2025 sale showing a -21.6% 90-day return. The stock currently trades at $82.25, down 8.3% from its 52-week high of $89.67, positioning this sale within a period of recent price weakness despite a +10.0% 90-day gain from the transaction date's perspective. With a P/E of 102.81 and revenue growth of 19.9% year-over-year against net income of $34.4M on $739.6M quarterly revenue, the company's valuation metrics warrant attention relative to execution consistency.

AAR Corp CEO John McClain III sold 10,000 shares at $71.70 on 2025-08-07; current price $72.06, up 20.5% in 90 days.

Holmes John McClain III, Chairman, President & CEO, sold 10,000 shares (10.0K shares) at $71.70 on 2025-08-07, reducing his holdings from 308.6K to 298.6K shares. The stock has risen 20.5% over the prior 90 days and trades at $72.06, only 0.5% above the sale price, suggesting the sale occurred near current momentum levels. Fundamentally, AAR Corp reported a net loss of $-8.9M on $678.2M revenue in the latest quarter, with an elevated P/E of 205.89 that reflects persistent unprofitability despite 19.9% annual revenue growth. His prior open-market activity across all tickers shows mixed timing—a 90-day well-timed rate of 52.94% with an average 90-day return of -4.2%—but at AAR specifically, his prior two measurable sales (January 2025) produced 90-day declines of -21.1% and -21.6%, indicating a pattern of well-timed exits at this ticker. The current sale's value of $716,994.00 ($717.0K) represents a modest 3.2% reduction in his stake.

CEO Holmes McClain III sold 56,551 shares ($4.4M) at $77.73 avg; prior AIR sales 5 of 5 well-timed at 90d, now stock +44.7% in 90d

Holmes John McClain III, Chairman, President & CEO of AAR CORP, executed 3 separate sales totaling 56,551 shares for $4,395,641.32 across July 23–24, 2025, at an average price of $77.73. The shares were sold against a 52-week high of $85.10 and current price of $76.48, and the company is trading at a P/E of 218.51 with a recent net loss of $8,900,000 despite +19.9% annual revenue growth. Notably, McClain's 5 prior sales at AIR all registered negative 90-day returns (ranging from -20.9% to -22.0%), indicating a consistent pattern of well-timed exits; however, the stock has risen +44.7% over the 90 days preceding this filing. His cross-ticker track record shows a 57.89% well-timed sell rate, but here the timing appears misaligned with recent momentum: the stock traded $77.73 at sale yet now sits $76.48, down 1.6% from execution, while his historical accuracy at this specific ticker suggests prior sales preceded material declines. This sale merits scrutiny given the temporal disconnect between his demonstrated selling accuracy at AIR and the stock's recent +44.7% appreciation, alongside elevated valuation metrics and the net loss position.

Holmes John McClain III, Chairman, President & CEO of AAR CORP, executed 7 separate sales totaling 128,427 shares for $8,573,697.35 on 2025-01-10, reducing his post-transaction holdings to 346,680 shares from a pre-transaction 475,107 shares—a 27.0% reduction. The sales occurred at a blended average price of $66.76, near the lower end of the 52-week range of $57.07–$75.54 and slightly below the current price of $69.45. Against his same-ticker history at AIR, his prior 5 sales generated average 90-day returns of +12.76%, with only 1 of 5 well-timed at the 90-day mark; cross-ticker, his 12 prior sells posted an average 90-day return of +6.7%, with 33.33% well-timed. The company's fundamentals show recent stress: net income of $-30,600,000.00 in the latest quarter against revenue of $686,100,000.00, despite annual revenue growth of +16.5% and a market cap of $2,494,272,373.05. The large concentrated reduction, coupled with current profitability headwinds and the departure from recent bullish near-term performance (+9.8% over 30 days), merits investor attention.
