WALKER JOHN KENT

CLO/President Walker sells 8,993 shares at $275.89 avg for $2.5M, reducing stake by 12.9% to 60.8K shares held.

John Kent Walker, Alphabet's President of Global Affairs and Chief Legal Officer, executed 5 separate sales on 2026-03-27 totaling 8,993 shares for $2,481,116.95, reducing his holdings from 69.8K to 60.8K shares. The 12.9% reduction represents a material drawdown of his position, executed at a blended average price of $275.89 per share. Walker's cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior sales with an average 90-day return of +16.6% and a 90-day well-timed rate of 25.00%, but his 5 prior same-ticker sales at GOOGL (all on 2026-02-17) showed modest 30-day gains of 1.5%–3.2% with no measurable 90-day outcomes yet. The current stock price of $287.56 stands at -16.3% from its 52-week high of $343.69, suggesting the stock has retreated materially from recent peaks, though the company's fundamentals remain solid with $102.3B quarterly revenue, $35.0B net income, and +15.1% annual growth.

Walker sold 47,574 shares (78.2% of holdings) for $14,341,414.45 on Feb 17; prior GOOGL sells all gained +6.9% to +12.6% in 30 days.

Walker John Kent (President, Global Affairs, CLO) executed 8 separate sales totaling 47,574 shares for $14,341,414.45, reducing holdings from 60,801 to 13,227 shares (a -78.2% reduction from pre-transaction holdings). The sales span a narrow price range ($297.70–$304.47) with a blended average of $301.45. His prior sales at GOOGL consistently generated positive 30-day returns: June and September 2025 sales each yielded +6.9% to +12.6% within 30 days. However, at the 90-day mark, his prior GOOGL sales show a timing pattern where neither measurable sale was well-timed (both prior September sales gained +24.7% to +28.5%, meaning he sold before further upside). The current price of $302.85 is -11.9% from the 52-week high, placing this sale in a retreat phase; his cross-ticker track record shows a 35.29% well-timed rate for sells, suggesting modest but not exceptional timing accuracy across his history.

Walker sold 17,829 shares at blended $314.89; derivative-conversion trade, not full exit.

Walker John Kent sold 17,829 shares (17.8K) across three separate transactions on 2025-12-30 for $5,614,095.19, reducing his direct holdings by -30.1% from 59,164 to 41,335 shares. The sales were executed at prices ranging from $314.61 to $316.52, near the current level of $313.85 and within 3.0% of the 52-week high of $323.44. This filing contains a derivative-conversion transaction, meaning the insider's full position includes derivative holdings not yet reflected in our database. His prior five sales at GOOGL (all on 2025-09-29) produced positive 90-day returns, ranging from +24.7% to +28.5%, indicating the prior sales were poorly timed from a directional standpoint—the stock rose after each sale. The current sale's timing relative to future price movement remains unknown; the transaction is factually documented but without a 10b5-1 flag, no scheduled nature is indicated.

Walker executes 9 separate sales totaling 17,816 shares for $4,408,122.48 at GOOGL; -29.3% of holdings in single transaction

John Kent Walker (President, Global Affairs, CLO) filed 9 separate sales totaling 17,816 shares for $4,408,122.48 on 2025-09-29, reducing his holdings from 60,801 shares to 42,985 shares. The blended average sale price of $247.42 sits just 1.0% above the current price of $244.90, placing this liquidation near the 52-week high of $254.72. Walker's same-ticker history shows a strong pattern: 3 of 4 prior sales (on 2025-02-18 and 2025-03-27) generated negative 90-day returns of -12.2%, -12.5%, -13.0%, and -11.0%, -10.5%, -10.2% respectively—indicating well-timed exits ahead of declines. His cross-ticker track record logs a 42.11% well-timed rate across 20 prior sells, above the breakeven threshold. This sale's execution at elevated prices, combined with his demonstrated ability to exit before downside moves at this ticker, warrants investor attention as a potential leading indicator of near-term pressure.

President John Kent Walker sold 23,820 shares of GOOGL at $194.70 for $4,637,754 on 2025-08-04.

John Kent Walker, President of Global Affairs and Chief Legal Officer, sold 23,820 shares ($4.6M) at $194.70, reducing his holdings by 28.1% to 60,801 shares. At GOOGL specifically, Walker has executed 5 prior open-market trades, all sells, with a strong track record: 4 of 5 prior sells were well-timed (stock fell in the 90-day window following the sale). His most recent two sales at GOOGL occurred on 2025-02-18 at a price near $222 (implied from the -13.0% and -12.5% subsequent returns), suggesting this August sale at $194.70 occurs after a sharp intermediate decline. The current price of $196.09 is 10.9% above the sale price over 30 days, yet the 90-day performance cannot yet be assessed. Walker's historical pattern of well-timed exits at GOOGL, combined with his decision to sell 28% of his position in a large-cap technology stock trading at a P/E of 20.53 and near its 52-week high, warrants attention to the timing context and his prior behavioral pattern at this specific ticker.

CLO John Kent Walker sold 11,764 GOOGL shares at $166.84 (2025-03-27); holds 104,444 post-transaction.

John Kent Walker, President of Global Affairs and Chief Legal Officer, executed a sale of 11,764 shares at $166.84 on 2025-03-27, reducing his stake from 116,208 to 104,444 shares. This represents a -10.1% reduction in his pre-transaction holding. The sale occurred at a price 2.8% above the current market price of $162.24, and well above the 52-week low of $148.66, though still 21.4% below the 52-week high. His prior four sales at GOOGL on 2025-02-18 each saw 30-day declines ranging from -11.7% to -13.0%, suggesting recent negative momentum in the stock. Given the FLAG noting this may be a derivative-conversion transaction with full position details in unpopulated Table II, this sale should be interpreted narrowly as a discrete transaction rather than a broad exit signal. The trade timing relative to broader market conditions warrants monitoring, though the insider retains significant equity stake post-transaction.

GOOGL CLO John Kent Walker sold 17.7K shares for $3.3M at $185.51 avg on 2025-02-18, reducing stake 42.9%

John Kent Walker, President of Global Affairs and Chief Legal Officer at Alphabet, executed 4 separate sales totaling 17,690 shares for $3,281,683.63, reducing his holdings from 41,191 shares to 23,501 shares (a -42.9% reduction). The sales occurred at a blended average price of $185.51, near the current price of $184.56 but below the 52-week high of $206.38. His cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior sells with an average 90-day return of +11.7% and a well-timed rate of 6.25%, indicating his historical sales have not consistently preceded stock declines. At Alphabet specifically, his prior 5 trades are all recent sales (four on 2024-12-30 and one on 2024-09-27), with the 2024-09-27 sale showing a 90-day return of +18.2% — meaning the stock rose substantially after that sale, a poorly-timed outcome. The current sale comes as GOOGL is trading -10.6% from its 52-week high and -6.8% over the past 30 days, a period of weakness, though the company maintains strong fundamentals with $88.3B in latest-quarter revenue, $26.3B net income, and +13.9% annual revenue growth.

Walker sold 16,820 GOOGL shares for $3,239,916.09 across 4 transactions on 2024-12-30 at $191.32–$193.70.

John Kent Walker, President of Global Affairs and CLO, executed 4 separate sales totaling 16,820 shares for $3,239,916.09, reducing his holdings from 40,320 to 23,500 shares (a -41.7% reduction in position size). The sales occurred at blended average price of $192.62, near the 52-week high of $196.66, with current price at $189.43. His prior 5 sells at GOOGL posted 90-day returns ranging from +5.6% to +18.2%, all positive; 0 of those 5 were well-timed (stock rose after). His cross-ticker track record shows 11.76% well-timed rate and avg 90-day return of +10.8% on 17 prior open-market sells. The transaction occurred near year-end, a period when executives often execute planned reductions for tax or portfolio reasons.

GOOGL insider Walker sells 16,802 shares ($2.8M) on 2024-09-27 at $165.47; retains 23,498 shares post-transaction.

Walker John Kent, President of Global Affairs and Chief Legal Officer at Alphabet, sold 16,802 shares for $2,780,294.15 at $165.47 on 2024-09-27, reducing his holdings from 40,300 shares to 23,498 shares—a reduction of 41.7% of his prior position. This sale occurs in the context of Alphabet's strong fundamentals: revenue of $84,742,000,000.00 (latest quarter), net income of $23,619,000,000.00, and annual revenue growth of +8.7%, with a P/E ratio of 23.33. The stock is currently -13.2% from its 52-week high of $191.18. Across his cross-ticker insider trading history, Walker's 16 prior sales had an average 90-day return of +12.5%, meaning his prior sells occurred before subsequent stock gains (poorly timed at 20% well-timed rate), indicating limited predictive value in his sales timing. At Alphabet specifically, Walker had 5 prior sells on 2024-09-03, all too recent to measure outcome patterns. The transaction itself represents a material reduction in his stake but occurs within the context of a fundamentally sound company near historical highs.

Walker (President, Global Affairs, CLO) sold 21,467 shares for $3,442,277.21 on 2024-09-03

On 2024-09-03, John Kent Walker sold 21,467 shares across 6 separate transactions totaling $3,442,277.21, reducing his holdings by 35.3% from 60,801 to 39,334 shares. The sales occurred at prices ranging from $158.34 to $163.18, with a blended average of $160.35, at a time when the current price sits at $157.24—suggesting the insider executed sales above current levels. Walker's cross-ticker track record shows only 20.00% of his prior 10 sells were well-timed (stock fell afterward), and his 90-day average return after prior sells was +12.5%, indicating his historical sales have not preceded stock declines. The substantial reduction in a controlling officer's position warrants attention to whether this reflects estate planning, diversification, or other structured execution rather than discretionary market timing.
