Significance 6/10

Apollo CFO Kelly Martin sells 7,000 shares at $134.64 for $942,514.30, retaining 401,067 shares post-transaction.

This filing contains multiple separate transactions: a sale of 7,000 shares at $134.64 on 2026-05-14 for $942,514.30, plus two additional zero-priced dispositions of 415 and 155 shares on 2026-05-14 and 2026-05-15, respectively. Kelly Martin's cross-ticker track record across 11 prior sells shows an average 90-day return of -11.1% and a 90-day well-timed rate of 88.89%. At APO specifically, 4 of 5 prior sells registered negative 90-day returns — meaning at the 90-day mark those sells proved well-timed — with the most recent prior sale on 2025-12-01 showing a 30-day return of +10.2% and a separate 90-day return of -20.4%. On the fundamentals side, Apollo reported a net income of $-1,906,000,000.00 in the latest quarter against revenue of $5,059,000,000.00, while the stock sits -13.9% from its 52-week high despite a 30-day gain of +12.3%.

$788,434
Significance 6/10

CFO Kelly Martin sold 6,000 APO shares at $131.41; 4 of 5 prior APO sales were well-timed with negative 90-day returns.

Kelly Martin, CFO of Apollo Global Management, sold 6,000 shares (6.0K shares) of APO at $131.41 on 2025-12-01 for $788,433.60 ($788.4K), retaining 324,569 shares (324.6K shares) post-transaction. His prior five trades at APO show a strong pattern of well-timed exits: four of five prior sells were followed by negative 90-day returns (-6.2%, -5.9%, -10.0%, -27.4%), indicating consistent sell-side accuracy at this ticker. Notably, the stock is currently -24.7% from its 52-week high ($178.61) and fundamental headwinds are visible—annual revenue contracted -20.0% year-over-year despite current net income of $1.7B on $9.8B quarterly revenue. The cross-ticker track record supports timing discipline: a 90-day well-timed rate of 87.50% across prior sales with an average 90-day return of -9.9%, suggesting the CFO's sell decisions have historically preceded stock declines. This transaction extends a demonstrable pattern of well-timed capital reduction at APO.

Sell
15,500 shares
$2,249,230
Significance 6/10

The current stock price of $140.68 is -21.2% from the 52-week high of $178.61, and Apollo's annual revenue growth is -20.0%, indicating deteriorating fundamentals. Martin's same-ticker history shows a strong pattern: 4 of 5 prior sells at APO were well-timed, with negative 90-day returns following the sales, suggesting a demonstrated ability to exit before declines at this specific security. The cross-ticker track record compounds this signal: an 83.33% well-timed rate on 8 prior open-market sells with an average 90-day return of -10.0%, indicating this insider consistently sells into relative strength before downturns.

May 2025
Sell
4,000 shares
$530,272
Significance 6/10

CFO Kelly Martin sold 4,000 APO shares at $132.57; stock down 27.6% from 52-week high, revenue fell 20% YoY

Kelly Martin, Apollo's CFO, sold 4,000 shares for $530,272.00 on 2025-05-06, reducing holdings from 376,934 to 372,934 shares. The transaction occurred at $132.57, while the current price is $129.34—placing the stock 27.6% below its 52-week high of $178.61. Martin's prior trades at Apollo show a strong 90-day timing pattern: 4 of 4 measurable prior sells at this ticker were well-timed, with negative 90-day returns of -15.1%, -6.7%, -3.9%, and combined -7.4%/-6.9% on duplicate-date trades. More broadly, his cross-ticker track record across 7 prior sells demonstrates a 100.00% well-timed rate at the 90-day horizon, though with a -14.5% average 90-day return. Concurrently, Apollo's fundamentals have deteriorated: annual revenue contracted 20.0% year-over-year to $5,548,000,000, and the P/E of 20.56 suggests the stock trades at a premium despite revenue declines. This sale adds to a pattern of disciplined exit activity by the CFO amid deteriorating financial conditions.

Sell
5,000 shares
$791,378
Significance 4/10

Kelly Martin, APO CFO, sold 5,000 shares at $158.28 on 2025-02-13 for $791,378.00; retains 377,164 shares post-sale.

Kelly Martin sold 5,000 shares (1.3% of pre-transaction holdings) at $158.28, bringing his APO holdings to 377,164 shares—a relatively modest reduction of an already substantial position. At APO's current price of $162.81, the stock is trading -8.8% from its 52-week high and has declined -1.2% over the past 30 days, yet Martin's sale occurred near the midpoint of the 52-week range. His track record across all open-market activity shows a 100.00% 90-day well-timed rate (6 prior sells with an avg 90d return of -7.1%), and at APO specifically, 2 of 2 prior measurable sells at the 90-day horizon resulted in stock declines. The company's fundamentals remain robust (revenue $7.8B, net income $811.0M, annual growth +197.6%, P/E 15.76), indicating this sale does not reflect deterioration in business performance. The transaction is consistent with his historical pattern of selling before subsequent stock weakness, though the size is modest relative to his overall position.

Sell
5,000 shares
$863,050
Significance 4/10

APO CFO Kelly Martin sold 5,000 shares at $172.61; stock at 52-week high of $175.73, up 62.7% in 90 days

Kelly Martin sold 5,000 shares (5.0K shares) of Apollo Global Management at $172.61 on 2024-12-03, reducing his holdings by 1.6% to 317,019 shares (317.0K shares). The transaction occurred with the stock near its 52-week high of $175.73 and following a 62.7% 90-day gain, contextualizing the sale within strong recent price appreciation. His prior four sales at APO show mixed timing: 2 of 4 were well-timed at the 90-day mark (negative returns post-sale), while the two May 2024 sales underperformed (both negative 90d returns), suggesting inconsistent execution in predicting subsequent price movement at this specific stock. The company's fundamentals show robust revenue growth of +197.6% annually and a moderate P/E of 17.01, though the absolute sale size and frequency do not suggest material concern about company outlook or position conviction.
