SMCI CEO Liang Charles sold 200,000 shares at $60.00 on 2025-07-28; price since up 23.9% in 30 days, 85.5% in 90 days.

Liang Charles, President and CEO of Super Micro Computer, sold 200,000 shares at $60.00 on 2025-07-28, reducing his holdings from 40.63M to 40.43M shares (a -0.5% reduction in position size). The sale occurred at a price that has since declined to $60.71 current price, representing -14.8% from the 52-week high of $71.22, while the stock has posted +23.9% gains in the 30-day period and +85.5% gains over the 90-day period since the sale. His cross-ticker track record shows 5 prior sells with an average 90-day return of -37.3% and a 90% well-timed rate, but at this specific ticker (SMCI), his prior 2 measurable 90-day outcomes were both well-timed declines (-17.1% and -57.4%), though recent same-ticker sales in June, May, and February have shown mixed results as the stock has rebounded significantly. This sale occurs within a fundamentally strong context: SMCI posted $4.6B in latest quarterly revenue, $108.8M net income, annual revenue growth of +110.4%, and a market cap of $36.2B. The timing of this insider sale during a sharp post-transaction rally creates a mismatch between the insider's action and subsequent price momentum, warranting scrutiny of whether the sale reflects broader confidence or operational liquidity needs.

SMCI CEO Liang Charles sold 300,000 shares ($13.5M) at $45.00 on 2025-06-18; stock down 50.7% from 52-week high of $92.00.

Liang Charles, President and CEO, divested 300,000 shares (0.4% of post-transaction holdings of 66.90M shares) at $45.00, capturing $13,500,000 in proceeds amid significant stock weakness. The stock now trades 50.7% below its 52-week high of $92.00, though it has recovered +8.8% over the past 30 days and +7.5% over 90 days. Examining his historical pattern: across all tickers, his prior 4 sells averaged -33.6% return at 30 days and -37.3% at 90 days, with a 100.00% well-timed rate at the 90-day horizon—meaning those sales consistently preceded further declines. At SMCI specifically, his prior 4 trades (two distinct sales on 2025-05-14, and earlier sales on 2025-02-26 and 2023-12-05) showed 90-day returns of -17.1% and -57.4% respectively, with 2 of 2 measurable 90-day outcomes being well-timed. Despite the stock's recent 30- and 90-day gains, the CEO's demonstrated pattern of selling into strength before subsequent weakness, combined with the stock's current 50.7% drawdown from peak, warrants investor scrutiny of forward guidance and demand fundamentals.

Liang Charles (CEO) sells 200,000 shares at $44.95 blended average; SMCI stock -51.5% from 52-week high at $95.24.

Liang Charles, President and CEO of Super Micro Computer, executed 2 separate sales totaling 200,000 shares for $8,989,315.66 at a blended average price of $44.95 on 2025-05-14. The timing coincides with the stock trading 51.5% below its 52-week high of $95.24, though 44.7% above its 30-day low. His prior 2 open-market sells at SMCI have both been measurably-timed well: one achieving -31.7% at 30 days and one achieving -88.6% at 30 days with -57.4% at 90 days. Post-transaction, Charles retains 67,203,640 shares, a reduction of only 0.3% of pre-transaction holdings, leaving his ownership position substantially intact. The company's fundamentals remain solid—$4.6B quarterly revenue with +110.4% annual growth and $108.8M net income—suggesting the sale is not a distress signal but rather capital deployment or estate activity at the executive level.

SMCI CEO Liang Charles sold 46,293 shares ($2.3M) on 2025-02-26, eliminating 100.0% of holdings at $50.17

Liang Charles, President and CEO of Super Micro Computer, executed a complete liquidation of his SMCI position, selling 46,293 shares at $50.17 for $2,322,566.10. This represents a 100% exit from his holdings at a price 21.0% above the current market level ($41.46), and notably occurs when the stock is down 65.1% from its 52-week high of $118.81. His cross-ticker track record shows a 100.00% well-timed rate on prior sells (the insider's sales have historically been followed by stock declines), and his prior sale at SMCI on 2023-12-05 also proved well-timed with a 90-day return of -57.4%. A complete elimination of CEO holdings during a period of significant stock depreciation warrants investor scrutiny of the company's fundamentals and forward outlook, particularly given SMCI's strong reported revenue of $5,677,962,000.00 and annual revenue growth of +110.4%.
