CEO Patrick W Smith sells 20,000 shares of AXON at $500.00 for $10,000,000 via pre-arranged 10b5-1 plan

Patrick W Smith, as Chief Executive Officer, sold 20,000 shares at $500.00 on 2026-06-04 under a 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on 2025-05-12, meaning this was a scheduled transaction rather than a discretionary decision. The sale reduced his holdings from 3,080,997 shares to 3,060,997 shares, a -0.6% change in his position. Notably, Smith's cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior open-market sells with average 30d and 90d returns of -30.0% and -13.1% respectively, while his same-ticker history at AXON across 5 prior sales shows comparable patterns: 30d returns ranging from -31.3% to -30.1%, and 90d returns from -14.7% to -13.2%. The current stock price of $471.06 is -46.8% from its 52-week high of $885.92, suggesting the company is trading well below recent peaks despite posting $807.3M in quarterly revenue, $169.3M in net income, and +33.5% annual revenue growth. The high P/E of 184.01 indicates the market has priced in substantial future growth expectations relative to current earnings.

Significance 6/10

CEO Smith sold 10,000 shares at blended $560.24 on 2026-03-09 for $5.6M; stock now -40.6% from 52-week high.

Patrick W. Smith, AXON Enterprise's Chief Executive Officer, executed 24 separate sales totaling 10,000 shares for $5,602,393.90 ($5.6M) on 2026-03-09 at prices ranging from $546.81 to $577.12, with a blended average price of $560.24. His post-transaction holdings remain substantial at 3,080,997 shares (3.08M shares), representing only a -0.3% reduction. The current stock price of $517.57 is -40.6% from the 52-week high of $870.97, and his prior sales at this ticker on 2026-01-07 (four separate sales) have seen 30-day returns ranging from -32.5% to -33.5%, suggesting the recent sell window captured elevated valuations relative to near-term subsequent price action. The company's fundamentals show Annual revenue growth (FY vs prior FY) of +33.5% alongside a net loss of $2.2M and an extreme P/E of 8626.17 driven by minimal profitability despite $710.6M in quarterly revenue, creating a disconnect between top-line growth and earnings.

Significance 5/10

CEO Patrick Smith sold 10,000 shares at $500.24 on 2026-02-25; stock now $550.19; his last 5 AXON trades (Jan 7) declined 32-34% in 30 days.

CEO Patrick W Smith sold 10,000 shares (10.0K shares) at $500.24, reducing holdings from 3,100,997 to 3,090,997 shares—a -0.3% decrease in his position. The current price of $550.19 is 9.9% above the sale price, and the stock has fallen -9.8% over the past 30 days and -36.8% from its 52-week high of $870.97. Smith's prior AXON trades on 2026-01-07 (five separate sell transactions) each declined 32.5%–33.6% within 30 days, establishing a pattern of poor timing on this ticker at least over the near-term horizon. His cross-ticker track record of 20 prior sells shows an average 30-day return of -19.3%, indicating historical weakness in his open-market sell execution. While the company posted strong annual revenue growth of +33.5% and quarterly revenue of $710.6M, net income was negative at -2.2M and the P/E is extremely elevated at 9169.83, suggesting valuation stress despite growth.

Significance 4/10

CEO Patrick W Smith sells 10,000 AXON shares for $6.2M; stock +12.1% in 30 days post-transaction

Patrick W Smith, AXON's CEO, executed 14 separate sales totaling 10,000 shares (10.0K shares) for $6,190,145.62 ($6.2M) on January 7, 2026, at a blended average price of $619.01 per share. His post-transaction holdings stand at 3,100,997 shares (3.10M shares), representing a -0.3% reduction versus his pre-transaction position. The sale occurred while AXON stock has risen 12.1% over the 30 days following the transaction and sits 30.6% below its 52-week high of $870.97, though the company posted strong annual revenue growth of 33.2% against recent net losses of $-2,186,000.00 ($-2.2M). His prior five trades at AXON (all dated 2025-12-08) showed subsequent 30-day returns ranging from 11.8% to 13.0%, suggesting a consistent pattern of sales preceding near-term appreciation, though the 90-day outcome for those trades remains unmeasurable and his cross-ticker track record shows a flat 20-prior-sell average of -0.0% 30-day return.

Significance 6/10

CEO Smith sells 10,000 shares for $5.5M on 2025-12-08; stock down 37.2% from 52-week high

CEO Patrick W. Smith executed 7 separate sales totaling 10,000 shares for $5,519,164.11 on 2025-12-08, reducing his holdings from 3.12M to 3.11M shares (a -0.3% decrease in position size). The sales occurred at prices ranging from $549.56 to $555.19 (blended average $551.92), while the current stock price is $546.65—indicating the stock has declined modestly since the transaction. The timing context is notable: AXON trades at -37.2% from its 52-week high of $870.97 and has declined 9.3% in the last 30 days and 26.9% over 90 days. Smith's recent prior sales at this ticker on 2025-11-07 showed negative 30-day returns of -6.6% to -8.2%, reflecting a pattern of sales occurring during downward momentum. The company's fundamentals show elevated valuation (P/E of 167.68) despite recent net losses (-$2.2M in latest quarter) and strong revenue growth of +33.2% year-over-year, creating a tension between growth narrative and current profitability. This sale warrants attention given the combination of large aggregate dollar volume, significant recent stock decline, the CEO's sequential selling pattern, and the company's inverted earnings backdrop.

Significance 7/10

CEO Smith sells 10,000 shares for $5.9M at $591.04 blended average; stock now $569.51, down -19.8% in 30 days from sale date.

PATRICK W SMITH, Chief Executive Officer, executed 26 separate sales totaling 10,000 shares for $5,910,426.33 on 2025-11-07, with a blended average price of $591.04. The sale occurred when the stock was trading near its 52-week high; the current price of $569.51 represents a -34.6% decline from the 52-week high of $870.97 and is -19.8% below the November 7 sale prices. His prior five sales at AXON, all executed on 2025-10-07, have each posted negative 30-day returns ranging from -16.9% to -18.9%, establishing a recent pattern of selling into subsequent declines. While Smith retains substantial holdings of 3,023,982 shares post-transaction (a -0.3% reduction in his position), the timing of this large multi-tranche sale immediately before the current month-long price deterioration raises questions about execution context and information asymmetry at the management level.

AXON CEO Patrick Smith sold 10,000 shares on 2025-10-07 for $7,137,352.63 (blended avg $713.74); holdings drop to 3,033,982 shares (-0.3%)

Patrick Smith, Chief Executive Officer of AXON Enterprise, Inc., executed 15 separate sales totaling 10,000 shares for $7,137,352.63 (blended average price $713.74) on 2025-10-07. The transaction reduces his post-transaction holdings to 3,033,982 shares, a net change of -0.3% versus pre-transaction holdings. His most recent prior sales at AXON (five trades on 2025-09-08) all showed modest negative 30-day returns ranging from -0.9% to -2.8%, establishing a recent pattern of sales executing at or near local peaks; however, all five of those prior trades remain without measurable 90-day outcomes. At the broader cross-ticker level, his 20 prior open-market sells across all holdings recorded an average 30-day return of -5.1%, substantially below the modest near-term declines seen in his recent AXON-specific activity, suggesting this insider's sell timing has historically underperformed the broader market. The current stock price of $727.41 sits -16.5% from the 52-week high of $870.97, indicating the executive is selling into a pullback from recent peaks rather than a sustained rally.

Significance 6/10

AXON CEO Patrick W. Smith sells 10,000 shares for $7.4M at blended $743.64 avg price; stock down -16.0% from 52-week high

PATRICK W SMITH (Chief Executive Officer) executed 13 separate sales totaling 10,000 shares for $7,436,415.17 on 2025-09-08 at prices ranging from $734.29 to $749.82, representing a blended average price of $743.64. The sale reduces his holdings to 3,043,982 shares, a -0.3% reduction relative to his pre-transaction position. This large, deliberate multi-tranche liquidation occurs when AXON stock has declined -16.0% from its 52-week high of $870.97 and is down -13.1% over the past 30 days. Notably, across his cross-ticker open-market history, Smith's prior 20 sells posted a 90-day well-timed rate of 0.00%, indicating that the subsequent 90-day periods after his recent sales have shown positive returns; his same-ticker history at AXON consists of five recent sells from 2025-08-11, all too recent to have measurable outcomes.

CEO Smith sells 10,000 AXON shares for $8.3M on 2025-08-11; 0 of 5 prior same-ticker sales were well-timed (all preceded gains)

Patrick W Smith, CEO of Axon Enterprise, executed 16 separate sales totaling 10,000 shares for $8,312,886.44 on 2025-08-11, reducing his holdings from 3.06M to 3.05M shares at a blended average price of $831.29. This sale occurred when the stock was trading 11.8% below its 52-week high of $870.97, and notably, his five prior same-ticker sales executed on 2025-04-21 all preceded substantial gains—each showing 30-day returns between +32.5% and +34.8%, and 90-day returns between +36.2% and +38.6%, with a 0.00% well-timed rate. The current price of $768.57 is now 7.5% below the transaction price, suggesting this sale may have occurred before continued price appreciation, consistent with his historical pattern at this ticker where none of his prior sales successfully preceded declines.

$5,409,861
Significance 6/10

CEO Smith sells 10,000 shares for $5.4M at blended $540.99; retains 3.06M shares (−0.3% of holdings).

Patrick W. Smith, CEO of Axon Enterprise, executed 19 separate sales on 2025-04-21 totaling 10,000 shares for $5,409,861.27, with transaction prices ranging from $532.19 to $548.53 and a blended average of $540.99. His post-transaction holdings of 3,063,982 shares represent a net reduction of 10,000 shares from his pre-transaction base of 3,073,982 shares. Notably, Smith's prior five sales at Axon (all on 2024-10-02 and 2024-10-03) showed zero well-timed exits by the 90-day mark, with post-sale returns averaging between +46.5% and +47.5% — meaning the stock rose substantially after each prior sale. The current stock price of $576.90 is 18.8% below the 52-week high of $710.01, and the insider's blended transaction prices of approximately $540.99 align with prices roughly 6% below current levels. This sale occurs while the company reports strong fundamentals: latest-quarter revenue of $544,274,000.00, net income of $67,025,000.00, annual growth of +33.2%, though at a high P/E of 88.08. The transaction pattern—multiple smaller sales across a narrow price band on a single day—and the sustained nature of prior insider selling without favorable exit timing suggest this warrants tracking of subsequent stock performance relative to company execution.
