Significance 6/10

10% owner Kaplan sells 60,000 shares at $18.00 avg; stock -44.3% from 52-week high, company unprofitable.

Kaplan Caroline Lux, a 10% owner, executed 2 separate sales totaling 60,000 shares for $1,080,048.00 at a blended average price of $18.00 on 2026-05-26 and 2026-05-27. Post-transaction holdings of 470,958 shares represent an 11.3% reduction from prior holdings. The sales occur in the context of significant fundamental deterioration: the company reported revenue of $106,427,000.00 (latest quarter) but net income of -$134,804,000.00, with annual revenue declining 23.8% and market cap of $397,077,583.46 reflecting an unprofitable company. At the transaction prices of $18.00, the stock was trading substantially below its 52-week high of $33.38 (-44.3%), though at a slight premium to the current price of $18.58. Kaplan's prior trades at MGPI show poor 90-day timing: only 1 of 5 prior sales resulted in subsequent stock declines, with 4 of 5 followed by gains, suggesting sub-optimal exit execution at this ticker historically.

Significance 6/10

Kaplan (10% Owner) sold 60,000 MGPI shares for $1,413,853.85; holds 530,958 shares post-sale as stock down 54.3% from high.

Caroline Lux Kaplan, a 10% owner, executed 4 separate sales over two days (2025-11-18 to 2025-11-19) totaling 60,000 shares for $1,413,853.85 at an average price of $23.56, reducing her holding by 10.2% to 530,958 shares. The timing is notable given recent price weakness: the stock is trading at $22.69, down 54.3% from its 52-week high and down 24.8% over the past 90 days, while the company's annual revenue declined 15.9% year-over-year. Her prior trades at MGPI showed a 100% well-timed rate on measurable 90-day outcomes (2 of 2 prior sells occurred before subsequent declines), though her cross-ticker track record across all open-market transactions shows a 100% well-timed sell rate with an average 90-day return of -16.8%. The current sale at $23.56 occurs in a depressed price environment relative to recent history, while the company reports a P/E of 14.54 on net income of $15.4M against quarterly revenue of $130.9M.

Significance 6/10

10% owner Kaplan Caroline Lux sells 46,231 shares (46.2K) for $1,540,335.25 at blended avg $33.32; prior MGPI trades 100% well-timed.

Kaplan Caroline Lux, holding 590,958 shares post-transaction (a 7.3% reduction from pre-transaction holdings of 637,189 shares), executed 2 separate sales totaling 46,231 shares for $1,540,335.25 at a blended average price of $33.32, substantially above the current price of $32.89. The stock is down 64.2% from its 52-week high of $91.87, though it has recovered 16.2% over the past 30 days. Notably, Kaplan's 5 prior sales at MGPI—all conducted in July 2023—were well-timed at the 90-day mark in every instance, with negative 90-day returns of -15.5%, -16.0%, -16.5%, -14.9%, and -17.0%, indicating the stock declined following each sale. MGPI's fundamentals show quarterly revenue of $121,653,000.00, a net loss of $-3,024,000.00, and annual revenue contraction of -15.9%, with a compressed valuation at P/E 63.25 despite negative earnings. The current sale occurs as the stock has rebounded from deeper lows, and the insider's historical accuracy at timing exits at this ticker—a 100% success rate across 5 prior open-market sales—provides context for evaluating this transaction.
