Significance 3/10

CLO Michael Alexander Smith sold 6,149 shares of INSM at $108.47; stock now at $106.24, down 50.1% from 52-week high.

Michael Alexander Smith, Chief Legal Officer, sold 6,149 shares (reducing holdings from 47,762 to 41,613 shares) under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on 2025-11-07, making this a scheduled, non-discretionary transaction. The sale occurred at $108.47 per share for total value of $666,982.03, while the company's current stock price stands at $106.24 within a 52-week range of $64.84–$212.75. INSMED remains unprofitable with net income of -$163,563,000.00 on quarterly revenue of $305,964,000.00, despite annual revenue growth of 66.7%. The broader context shows the stock has declined 50.1% from its 52-week high and 26.5% over the prior 30 days.

19,638 shares
$2,964,945
Significance 4/10

CLO Smith sold 19,638 shares at $150.98; stock now $163.52; prior INSM sales have been poorly timed, falling after 4 of 4 measurable recent trades.

Michael Alexander, Chief Legal Officer of INSMED Inc, sold 19,638 shares (27.5% of his pre-transaction holdings) at $150.98 on 2026-03-30 for $2,964,945.24. The stock now trades at $163.52, approximately 8.4% above the sale price, and is +9.5% over the past 30 days and -6.0% over 90 days. At the same-ticker level, Alexander's 5 prior INSM trades are a notable concern: all 4 measurable 30-day outcomes were negative (ranging from -4.1% to -14.4%), and his cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior sells with an average 90-day return of +11.7% (indicating most sells were followed by stock appreciation). However, against his broader pattern, his specific history at INSM has not generated well-timed outcomes to date. The company remains unprofitable with net income of $-370.0M offset by strong revenue growth of +66.7% year-over-year, suggesting fundamental execution risks. The sale comes as the stock trades -22.6% from its 52-week high, which combined with recent positive price momentum may reflect opportunistic timing by the insider, though the pattern of negative returns following his prior INSM sales warrants attention.

Significance 6/10

Chief Legal Officer Smith sells 24,774 shares at blended avg $155.77, reducing stake by 32.3%; stock now down 29.7% from 52-wk high.

Smith Michael Alexander, Chief Legal Officer, executed 3 separate sales totaling 24,774 shares for $3,859,157.05, reducing his holdings from 76,645 to 51,871 shares. The sales occurred at prices ranging from $153.93 to $156.53 on 2026-02-24, with a blended average price of $155.77. At the current price of $148.61, the stock has declined 7.0% in the past 30 days and 27.3% over 90 days, placing it down 29.7% from its 52-week high of $211.41. His prior 5 trades at INSM show a 90-day well-timed rate of 2 of 2 measurable outcomes (100%), though recent INSM sales from early January yielded negative 30-day returns of -12.9% to -14.4%. While his cross-ticker track record shows an 8.7% average 30-day return and a 52.94% 90-day well-timed rate across 20 prior sells, the company remains unprofitable (full-year net income of -$370.0M) despite strong revenue growth of 66.7% year-over-year, creating a fundamental tension between growth and profitability that warrants investor attention to outcomes following this large proportional sale.

Significance 5/10

CLO Michael Smith sold 3,158 shares at blended $174.00; stock now $170.27, -12.3% in 30d; unprofitable co with $36.3B market cap

Michael Alexander Smith, Chief Legal Officer of INSMED, executed 3 separate sales totaling 3,158 shares for $549,494.32 between January 6–8, 2026, at prices ranging from $173.33 to $175.07. The sales reduced his holdings by 5.2% to 57,037 shares. The stock has since declined to $170.27 (-19.5% from 52-week high, -12.3% in the last 30 days), a modest underperformance relative to the blended sale price of $174.00. Across his prior 5 sales at INSM (all on 2025-11-03), returns have been measurably positive at the 30-day horizon (ranging +10.0% to +14.2%), but his cross-ticker track record shows sells are rarely well-timed at the 90-day mark (25.00% well-timed rate), suggesting inconsistent predictive value. The company remains unprofitable ($-370.0M net income last fiscal year) despite 19.2% revenue growth, which creates structural uncertainty independent of near-term price action.

Significance 6/10

CLO Michael Alexander sold 27,130 shares at $181.01–$187.15 for $4,985,910.59; 30-day stock +18.1%, 90-day +71.0%.

Chief Legal Officer Michael Alexander executed 8 separate sales totaling 27,130 shares for $4,985,910.59 on 2025-11-03, reducing his holdings from 82,032 to 54,902 shares (a -33.1% reduction). The blended average sale price of $183.78 sits within the stock's 52-week range and 3.8% below the 52-week high of $194.22. Over the trailing 30 days the stock has risen 18.1%, and over 90 days it has risen 71.0%. Against his cross-ticker track record, Alexander has 14 prior sales with an average 90-day return of +27.6% and a 50.00% well-timed rate; at INSM specifically, his 5 prior sales (all on 2025-09-02) each showed positive 30-day returns (4.7%–8.2%), though 90-day outcomes remain unmeasurable. The company reported quarterly revenue of $142,342,000.00 with a full-year net loss of $-370,021,000.00, so this insider is selling while the company is unprofitable and the stock has rallied substantially post-sale.

Significance 6/10

CLO Smith sold 24.3K shares for $3.5M at $143.89 avg; reduces holdings 30.7% near 52-week high; stock up 27.7% in 30d, 93.6% in 90d

Smith Michael Alexander, Chief Legal Officer, executed 6 separate sales totaling 24,272 shares for $3,492,377.99 on 2025-09-02, reducing his holdings by 30.7% from 79,174 to 54,902 shares. The sales occurred at prices ranging from $141.16 to $145.89, with a blended average of $143.89, occurring within 1.9% of the 52-week high of $145.30. The stock has appreciated 27.7% over the preceding 30 days and 93.6% over 90 days. Across his same-ticker history at INSM, Smith's prior 5 trades show 3 of 5 were well-timed at the 90-day mark, though his cross-ticker track record (8 prior sells averaging 14.3% 30-day and 27.6% 90-day returns with 50% well-timed rate) offers limited predictive specificity here. INSM is a $30.1B market-cap company that generated $107.4M in quarterly revenue with a negative $321.7M net income most recently, reflecting unprofitability; annual revenue growth of 19.2% shows operational expansion despite losses. The size and price level of this sale relative to recent momentum warrants tracking of any subsequent company-specific developments.

CLO Smith sold 26,327 shares at blended avg $69.65 on 2025-05-30, reducing holdings by -27.0%

Smith Michael Alexander, Chief Legal Officer of INSM, executed two separate sales totaling 26,327 shares for $1,833,779.12, reducing his holdings by -27.0% from 97,372 to 71,045 shares. The transaction prices ($68.56 and $70.00) were near or above the current price of $73.08, within the 52-week range of $53.55–$83.83. His same-ticker sales history at INSM shows 4 of 5 prior sells were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with the most recent 2025-02-06 sale followed by 90-day decline of -15.6%. The company reported quarterly revenue of $92,823,000.00 but full-year net income of $-256,583,000.00, indicating sustained unprofitability despite +19.2% annual revenue growth. The substantial reduction in equity stake by a senior legal officer, combined with the insider's established pattern of well-timed sales at this ticker, warrants investor attention to execution quality and cash burn trajectory.

Significance 6/10

CLO Smith sells 20,650 shares of INSM at $80.90; -17.6% of holdings post-sale.

Smith Michael Alexander, Chief Legal Officer of INSMED Inc, sold 20,650 shares at $80.90 on 2025-02-06, reducing holdings from 117,260 to 96,610 shares (-17.6% of pre-transaction holdings). The sale occurred near the 52-week high of $81.44, with the stock up 21.6% over the prior 30 days and up 8.7% over 90 days. Within his same-ticker history at INSM, 3 of 5 prior sales showed negative 90-day returns, indicating a pattern of well-timed exits; this current sale's proximity to recent highs aligns with that pattern. However, the company remains unprofitable despite strong revenue growth of 24.4% annually, and Smith maintains substantial post-sale holdings of 96,610 shares, suggesting a partial rather than full exit from his position.

Significance 6/10

CLO Smith sells 27,871 shares at $74.35 avg for $2.1M, cuts holdings 29.1%, stock near 52-week highs

Michael Alexander, Chief Legal Officer at INSM, executed 2 separate sales totaling 27,871 shares for $2,072,223.36 on 2024-09-13, reducing his holdings by 29.1% from 95,727 to 67,856 shares. The blended average sale price of $74.35 represents a position 1.5% above the current price of $73.23 and sits 7.3% below the 52-week high of $79.01. The company remains unprofitable (net income $-300.6M in the latest full fiscal year), though revenue growth stands at 24.4% year-over-year. His same-ticker prior trade on 2024-05-28 delivered a positive 90-day return of 35.2%, which indicates that sale was poorly timed relative to subsequent share appreciation, and 0 of 1 prior measurable same-ticker sells were well-timed. This substantial reduction in equity stake warrants examination of whether the timing reflects valuation views or operational considerations at a company still operating at significant net losses.

Significance 6/10

CLO Michael Alexander sells 88,070 shares (49.8% of holdings) for $6.4M at blended $72.96 avg vs current $74.87

Smith Michael Alexander, Chief Legal Officer, executed 2 separate sales totaling 88,070 shares (88.1K shares) for $6,425,466.00 ($6.4M), reducing his stake from 176,797 shares to 88,727 shares post-transaction. The blended average price of $72.96 is below the current price of $74.87 but reflects actual market execution on 2024-08-12 when the stock was near its 52-week high of $77.98. INSM remains unprofitable (net income $-300,609,000.00 for the most recent full fiscal year) despite 24.4% annual revenue growth, and the stock has declined 3.4% in the 30 days since this filing and 4.0% from its 52-week peak. His prior open-market sell at this ticker (2024-05-28) showed a 30-day return of +35.2%, indicating that sale preceded further appreciation rather than a downturn.
