FLS CEO Rowe sells 212.7K shares for $15.0M in 3 transactions; holds 346.6K remaining after 38.0% reduction.
Robert Scott Rowe, President & CEO of Flowserve Corp, executed three separate sales on 2025-12-02 totaling 212,683 shares for $14,989,331.83 at a blended average price of $70.48, reducing his holdings by 38.0% from 559,313 to 346,630 shares. The sale occurred near the company's 52-week high of $71.85 (-1.3% from peak), with the stock up 30.0% over 90 days. Notably, Rowe's same-ticker history at FLS shows 3 prior sells that were all well-timed at the 90-day mark, with each followed by declines (-2.1%, -2.9%, -5.5%), establishing a consistent pattern of favorable sale timing at this ticker. The current filing's substantial reduction in the CEO's equity stake—accomplished in multiple tranches at elevated valuations—warrants attention given the demonstrated pattern and the magnitude of this particular liquidation relative to his remaining position.
