Oracle CAO Smith sells 10,000 shares in 2 tranches ($2.8M); holds 47.1K post-sale as stock down -14.7% from 52-week high.
Smith Maria, Oracle's Chief Accounting Officer, executed 2 separate sales totaling 10,000 shares for $2,803,122.50 on 2025-10-21 and 2025-10-23 at blended average price of $280.31. This sale reduces her holdings by 17.5% from the 57.1K shares held pre-transaction. Oracle's current stock price of $280.07 is -14.7% from its 52-week high of $328.33 and down -10.8% over the past 30 days, placing the stock in a near-term downtrend despite longer-term strength (90-day return +14.3%). At the same ticker, Smith's prior 2 sells (2025-07-03 and 2024-09-16) showed 90-day post-sale returns of +24.0% and +5.1% respectively—both positive outcomes, indicating a 0% well-timed rate at Oracle historically. The timing context shows Oracle trading well below its recent highs amid near-term weakness, with Smith retaining a substantial 47.1K share position post-transaction.
Oracle CAO Maria Smith sold 10,000 ORCL shares at $232.99; retains 40.8K shares
Smith, Oracle's Chief Accounting Officer, sold 10,000 shares (19.7% of her pre-transaction holdings) on July 3, 2025 at $232.99 per share, reducing her position from 50.8K to 40.8K shares. The current price of $234.50 sits just 1.2% below the 52-week high of $237.32, and the stock has surged +34.8% over 30 days and +67.9% over 90 days. Her cross-ticker track record shows only 1 prior sell with a 90d well-timed rate of 0.00%, and that prior ORCL sale on 2024-09-16 also generated positive returns (+5.9% at 30d, +5.1% at 90d), indicating the insider has not demonstrated a pattern of selling ahead of declines at this ticker. Against the backdrop of Oracle's strong fundamentals—$14.1B quarterly revenue with +8.4% annual growth and $2.9B net income—this sale warrants attention as a modest portfolio adjustment by a financial officer during a period of significant stock appreciation, though the limited transaction history and lack of well-timed exit pattern limit the signal strength.
