EVP Kelley Joseph P sold 23,052 shares of NDSN for $6,669,276.00 on 2026-02-23, reducing holdings by -75.3%

Kelley Joseph P, Executive Vice President of Nordson Corp, executed 18 separate sales totaling 23,052 shares for $6,669,276.00 on 2026-02-23 at a blended average price of $289.31, reducing his post-transaction holdings to 7,559 shares from 30,611 shares. This represents a -75.3% reduction in his shareholding at a company with $16.2B market cap and a P/E of 31.01, where the stock is currently 2.8% below its 52-week high of $299.29. The multi-tranche execution across varying price points ($289.00–$290.40) and the substantial size of the largest single tranche (15,022 shares at $289.32 for $4,346,165.04) suggests a planned, substantial portfolio action rather than routine rebalancing. His SAME-TICKER HISTORY shows five prior sales on 2026-02-24 with outcomes not yet measurable, indicating continued selling pressure immediately following this filing date.

Sell
8,725 shares
$2,556,788
Significance 6/10

EVP Kelley Joseph P sold 8,725 shares of NDSN for $2,556,788.27 in 23 separate transactions on 2026-02-24, reducing holdings by 54.6%.

Kelley Joseph P executed 23 separate sales totaling 8,725 shares for $2,556,788.27 on 2026-02-24, with a blended average price of $293.04 and stock currently at $290.83. The sale reduced his holdings from 15,993 shares to 7,268 shares (54.6% reduction). The fragmented transaction pattern across multiple price points ($291.49 to $295.26) and the substantial portion executed at a single price ($293.07 for 6,295 shares, representing 72.1% of the total volume) suggests algorithmic execution or pre-arranged disposition. Notably, he conducted five prior sells at NDSN on 2026-02-23, the day before this filing. His cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior sells with a 90-day well-timed rate of 0.00%, indicating poor historical timing of exit decisions relative to subsequent price movement.

Significance 5/10

EVP Kelley Joseph P sold 2,200 NDSN shares at $240.00 on 2025-10-21; stock now -11.4% from 52-week high, second sale in 5 days

Kelley Joseph P, Executive Vice President of Nordson Corp, sold 2,200 shares at $240.00, reducing his holdings by 25.6% to 6,405 shares. This sale occurred just five days after another sale on 2025-10-16 at the same ticker, signaling a pattern of recent liquidation activity. Historically across all his trades, his cross-ticker 90-day timing has been mixed (average -7.0% return, 50% well-timed rate), and at Nordson specifically he has achieved only 50% success at the 90-day mark (1 of 2 prior measurable sales were well-timed). With the stock currently trading at $234.15, down 11.4% from its 52-week high of $264.36 and near where he sold, the timing of these consecutive sales may warrant observation relative to subsequent price action and any material business developments at this $13.2B market-cap manufacturer.

2,300 shares

Significance 4/10

EVP Joseph Kelley sells 2,300 NDSN shares at $232.39; holds 8,605 post-sale

Kelley Joseph P, Executive Vice President, sold 2,300 shares (21.1% of his pre-transaction holdings) for $534,497.00 on 2025-10-16 at $232.39 per share. At his SAME-TICKER HISTORY, one of his two prior NDSN sales showed negative 90-day returns (-17.8%), suggesting modest predictive power at this specific ticker. His cross-ticker track record shows 2 prior sells with a 90d well-timed rate of 50.00%—median performance with no strong edge. The stock has since recovered to $235.66 (up 4.7% in 30 days, up 8.0% in 90 days), indicating the sale was not well-timed at the 90-day mark. Nordson trades at a P/E of 29.09 with recent quarterly revenue of $741.5M and net income of $125.8M; the company shows modest 2.3% annual revenue growth. The sale alone does not signal material concern, though the pattern of recurring sales at this ticker warrants routine monitoring.

Significance 4/10

EVP Kelley Joseph P sells 3,000 NDSN shares at $249.98 for $749,940.00; retains 8,659 shares post-sale

Kelley Joseph P, an Executive Vice President, sold 3,000 shares (8.7K shares post-transaction) at $249.98 on 2024-10-09. The sale reduced his stake by 25.7% relative to pre-transaction holdings of 11,659 shares. This open-market sale occurred at a price approximately 1.9% below the current price of $253.60. Historically, Kelley's single prior open-market sale at NDSN on 2023-12-22 yielded a 90-day return of +3.8%, meaning the stock rose after he sold—a pattern inconsistent with prescient timing. His cross-ticker track record shows a 0.00% well-timed sell rate across one prior sale, suggesting no measurable pattern of selling in advance of declines. The sale does not appear to reflect informed concern about near-term price action, though the 30.67 P/E and +1.5% annual revenue growth warrant ongoing observation of the company's ability to sustain valuations.
