EVP Soler buys 1,000 AAP shares at $35.33; stock down 60.3% from $86.45 peak, revenue falling 19.4%.
Soler Kristen L, EVP Chief HR Officer, purchased 1,000 shares at $35.33 on 2025-03-04, bringing her total holdings to 17,205 shares (+6.2% vs pre-transaction). The purchase occurs as AAP trades 60.3% below its 52-week high of $86.45 and within 1 cent of its 52-week low, with the company experiencing -19.4% annual revenue decline and full-year unprofitability. Soler's cross-ticker track record shows a 60.00% 90-day win rate with an average +6.3% 90-day return, though her same-ticker history at AAP is mixed: 3 of her 5 prior buys were well-timed at the 90-day mark, but her most recent two buys (November 2024) each showed minimal returns or losses at 90 days, and a June 2024 buy resulted in a -32.4% 90-day decline. The timing and scale of this purchase—a modest 1,000-share addition during severe stock weakness and deteriorating fundamentals—lack obvious conviction signals beyond sustained holding.
AAP EVP Chief HR Officer Soler bought 925 shares at $43.12 on 2024-11-26; stock down 52.2% from 52-week high of $86.45.
Soler Kristen L, EVP Chief HR Officer, purchased 925 shares of Advance Auto Parts at $43.12, representing a 6.0% increase to her 16,240-share post-transaction holding. The purchase occurred against a backdrop of significant equity deterioration: the stock has declined 52.2% from its 52-week high of $86.45 and trades well below that peak, though it has recovered 15.0% over the past 30 days. Her same-ticker history at AAP shows mixed timing: prior purchases on 2023-12-05 and 2023-12-08 were well-timed at the 90-day mark (returning +14.4% and +10.6% respectively), but her June 2024 buy resulted in a 90-day loss of -32.4%. This latest purchase follows another AAP buy on 2024-11-25 (outcome not yet measurable). The cross-ticker track record indicates modest success overall (66.67% 90-day win rate with +10.6% average 90-day return), though insufficient to establish predictive confidence for AAP specifically.
EVP Soler buys 130 AAP shares at $43.25; stock up 19.3% in 30 days but down 6.0% in 90 days
Kristen L Soler, EVP and Chief HR Officer, purchased 130 shares of Advance Auto Parts at $43.25 on 2024-11-25, a modest $5.6K addition to her holdings of 15.3K shares post-transaction. The purchase comes as the stock is up 19.3% over the prior 30 days but remains 49.3% below its 52-week high of $86.45. At AAP specifically, Soler's prior timing has been mixed: two of three earlier trades showed strong 90-day gains (+10.6% and +14.4%), but a June 2024 buy resulted in a -32.4% 90-day decline. The company faces structural headwinds with only 1.2% annual revenue growth and a stretched P/E of 141.42, and this transaction does not materially change her ownership stake (up 0.9% vs pre-transaction holdings).
