KO CFO Murphy sells 72,449 shares ($5.8M) at $80.52; retains 279,917 post-sale; stock now at $79.34

John Murphy, President and CFO, sold 72,449 shares (72.4K shares) of Coca Cola at $80.52 on 2026-03-02 for $5,833,933.99 ($5.8M), reducing his holdings by -20.6% to 279,917 shares (279.9K shares). At his SAME-TICKER history at KO, 3 of 4 prior measurable sells were well-timed at the 90-day mark, suggesting some pattern of favorable exit timing at this ticker specifically. The current price of $79.34 is -2.7% from the 52-week high and the stock has risen +6.1% over 30 days and +12.0% over 90 days since the transaction, indicating the stock has advanced after the sale. The -20.6% reduction in holdings represents a material reduction in exposure by a senior executive holding nearly 280K shares post-transaction.

John Murphy, President and CFO, executed a sale of 99,437 shares for $7,996,534.61, reducing his holdings by 19.5% to 410,550 shares. The sale at $80.42 occurred as Coca-Cola stock subsequently moved higher to the current $81.56, placing it at the 52-week high. Across his same-ticker history at KO, Murphy has completed 4 prior sales; 3 of those 4 were well-timed at the 90-day mark, suggesting a pattern of selling in advance of declines. However, this particular trade executed near the stock's yearly peak and has not yet been followed by a material pullback, diverging from the typical outcome of his prior KO sales. The company's fundamentals remain stable with quarterly net income of $3,696,000,000 and annual revenue growth of 1.9%, though the P/E of 22.59 reflects current market valuation at elevated levels.

COCA COLA CFO Murphy sells 88,658 shares ($6.4M) at $72.09; reduces holdings by 30.1% in 2 transactions

John Murphy, President and CFO of Coca-Cola, executed 2 separate sales totaling 88,658 shares for $6,391,709.85 at $72.09 per share, reducing his post-transaction holdings from 294,169 to 205,511 shares (a -30.1% reduction). The stock currently trades at $71.17, near its 52-week high of $73.90, and has gained +4.0% over 30 days and +11.5% over 90 days. At the same ticker (KO), Murphy's prior 2 sells in 2024 and 2023 showed mixed timing outcomes: the May 2024 sale was poorly timed (stock +8.8% after), while the August 2023 sale was well-timed (stock -9.0% after). His broader cross-ticker track record (2 prior sells) shows a 50.00% well-timed rate at the 90-day mark, with an average 90-day return of -0.1% after his sells. The material size of this disposition—approximately 30% of his pre-transaction holding—combined with the stock's proximity to 52-week highs and the insider's mixed timing record at this specific ticker, merits investor attention as a substantial executive-level stake reduction.
