EVP Smith Kari G sold 30,000 shares of BKE at $54.57; post-transaction holdings: 83,814 shares. Stock -13.4% from 52-week high.

Smith Kari G, EVP Stores, sold 30,000 shares (30.0K shares) on 2026-04-10 at $54.57, representing a 26.4% reduction in her holdings to 83,814 shares. The transaction occurred at a price -13.4% below the 52-week high of $61.58 and follows two recent sales (2026-03-16 and 2026-03-17) whose outcomes remain unmeasurable. At her prior BKE trades, the 90-day outcomes for two measurable sales were both negative (−4.9% and −26.8%), and her cross-ticker track record shows a 100.00% well-timed rate on sells, with an average 90-day return of −15.8%. The company exhibits healthy fundamentals: annual revenue growth of +6.6%, net income of $48.7M on revenue of $320.8M, and a P/E of 12.46. The current stock price of $53.31 is +6.0% over 30 days but −3.7% over 90 days, positioning this sale within an insider's established pattern of timed exits.

Significance 6/10

EVP Stores Kari G. Smith sold 50,000 shares (39.4% of holdings) at blended $50.37 on 2 separate days totaling $2.5M at near 52-week high

Kari G. Smith (EVP Stores) executed 2 separate sales totaling 50,000 shares for $2,518,690.29 on March 16–17, 2026, reducing her holdings from 126,754 to 76,754 shares. The 39.4% portfolio reduction was executed at a blended average price of $50.37, only 0.3% below the current price of $50.51 and 18.0% below the 52-week high of $61.58. Her prior trades at BKE show a 2-of-2 well-timed pattern at the 90-day mark, though cross-ticker her 90-day well-timed rate stands at 100.00% across 2 prior sells. The stock has declined 5.5% in the 30 days and 10.2% in the 90 days following this filing date, extending the pattern of her prior two same-ticker sales which registered -3.1% and -4.9% at 30 days, and -3.9% and -26.8% at 90 days respectively. Investors should monitor whether this large, deliberate reduction signals a change in executive confidence regarding near-term company trajectory.

Significance 6/10

EVP Kari G Smith sells 20,000 BKE shares for $1.2M, reducing holdings -11.7%; stock up +35.2% in 90d.

Kari G Smith, EVP Stores, sold 20,000 shares at $59.36 on 2025-09-05, exiting -11.7% of her pre-transaction holdings of 170,354 shares. The stock has appreciated significantly since the sale window opened, rising +35.2% over 90 days and +12.3% over 30 days, placing it near its 52-week high of $60.25. Smith's prior sell at BKE on 2024-12-10 generated -26.8% return over 90 days, fitting her cross-ticker pattern of well-timed sells (100% timing rate across all open-market sells). However, the current timing appears inverted: the stock has trended strongly upward post-transaction, contrasting with her historical pattern of selling before declines. Fundamentally, BKE shows moderate strength with $272.1M quarterly revenue, $35.2M net income, and a P/E of 15.42, though annual revenue declined -3.4% year-over-year, which may merit investor attention relative to the stock's recent momentum.

Significance 5/10

EVP Stores SMITH KARI G sold 20,000 shares of BKE at $52.29, reducing holdings by 11.7% to 150,554 shares.

SMITH KARI G, EVP of Stores, sold 20,000 shares (11.7% of holdings) at $52.29 on 2024-12-10, with post-transaction holdings of 150,554 shares. The sale occurred near the 52-week high of $54.08, within 4.8% of that peak, and the stock has risen 8.1% in the prior 30 days and 17.0% in the prior 90 days. BKE's fundamentals show annual revenue declining 6.2% year-over-year despite a solid net income of $44.2M on $293.6M quarterly revenue and a relatively modest P/E of 11.59. The timing of the sale during strong recent price momentum, combined with the company's negative revenue trajectory, warrants attention to whether this reflects positioning around the company's operational headwinds.
