Director Khan Mehmood bought 4,000 shares at avg $75.33 (2 transactions); holdings grew 662.3% to 4,604 shares post-transaction
Khan Mehmood, a Director, executed 2 separate purchases totaling 4,000 shares for $301,313.67 on 2025-05-15 at a blended average price of $75.33. This transaction increased his holdings from 604 shares to 4,604 shares, a 662.3% increase—a material concentration of personal capital in IFF. The timing is notable given IFF's current context: the stock is -28.2% from its 52-week high of $106.07, though it has recovered 5.0% over the last 30 days. However, the company reported a net loss of $-1.0B in the latest quarter despite revenue of $2.8B, and the P/E of 80.14 reflects earnings stress. A director's purchase at 75% below the 52-week high, combined with a majority-new position, warrants monitoring of whether this reflects a conviction re-entry or is part of a pre-planned schedule.
