CEO Kurian George sold 8,750 shares (8.8K shares) of NetApp at $122.91 on 2025-09-17, reducing holdings to 274,938 shares

CEO Kurian George conducted a single open-market sale of 8,750 shares (8.8K shares) at $122.91, reducing his NetApp position by 3.1% to 274,938 shares (274.9K shares). The sale occurred when NetApp stock was trading 4.5% below its 52-week high of $131.11, after a recent 15.4% surge over 30 days. His prior five sales at NetApp show poor timing outcomes: 0 of 3 measurable 90-day post-sale periods resulted in the stock declining (each subsequent rise indicates the sale missed gains), with most recent sales in June through August yielding post-transaction gains of 2.3% to 13.8%. This single sale represents modest portfolio activity rather than a material reduction in CEO holdings, leaving him with substantial remaining shares in the company.

CEO Kurian George sold 8,500 shares at $108.85 on 2025-08-18 (post-transaction holdings: 283.7K shares). Continued liquidation pattern.

Kurian George sold 8,500 shares of NTAP for $925,225.00, reducing his holdings by 2.9% to 283.7K shares. This is his sixth open-market sale at this ticker within four months (prior sales on 2025-07-21, 2025-06-16, 2025-05-19, 2025-05-19, and 2025-04-21), continuing a systematic liquidation pattern. Across his prior 5 measured sales at NTAP, none achieved negative 90-day returns, with three showing substantial gains (90d returns of +8.4%, +9.1%, and +32.4%), indicating his timing has not preceded price declines at this specific ticker. His cross-ticker track record shows an average 90-day return of -5.7% following 20 prior sells with a 50.00% well-timed rate, but NTAP outcomes have diverged materially from this baseline—the stock has rallied after his previous exits, not fallen. The current price of $108.42 is -18.7% from the 52-week high but +8.7% over 90 days and +0.9% over 30 days, providing context for the ongoing liquidation.

CEO George Kurian sold 8,500 NTAP shares at $108.08 on 2025-07-21; stock now at $105.88, down 20.6% from 52-week high

The transaction occurred at $108.08, above the current price of $105.88 but 20.6% below the 52-week high of $133.41. His prior trades at NTAP show mixed timing: two recent sales (June, May 2025) posted positive 30-day returns (+2.3%, +2.4%, +3.1%), while his 90-day measurable outcomes (0 of 2 prior sales) reveal neither sale preceded a decline. His cross-ticker track record shows a 58.82% well-timed rate across 20 prior sells, slightly above breakeven, with average 90-day returns of -7.7%, though the 90-day outcomes for his more recent NTAP sales remain unmeasurable. The company carries solid fundamentals: $1.6B quarterly revenue, $299.0M net income, 4.8% annual revenue growth, and a P/E of 15.87.

At his same-ticker history across 5 prior trades at NTAP, the two measurable 90-day outcomes—a sell on 2025-03-17 and another on the same date—both produced positive returns (+8.7% and +8.2%), indicating those earlier sales preceded stock gains rather than declines. His cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior sells with a 64.71% well-timed rate and average 90-day return of -9.7%, suggesting modest timing skill on aggregate. The current stock price of $102.75 is -23.7% from its 52-week high of $134.62, and NetApp's P/E of 15.40 with positive fundamentals ($1.6B latest quarterly revenue, net income of $299.0M, annual growth +4.8%) indicates the company is not in distress. The sale itself is modest in scale, reducing CEO holdings by only 2.8%, which is consistent with periodic portfolio management.

His prior 5 trades at NTAP include 2 sales with measurable 90-day outcomes, both of which were well-timed (90d returns of -15.0% and -14.4%), indicating a pattern of selling before subsequent declines at this ticker. The current price of $99.57 is -26.0% from the 52-week high and -20.1% over the past 90 days, placing the stock in a period of weakness; his cross-ticker track record shows a 90d well-timed rate of 76.47% across 20 prior sells.
