Director Strobeck purchases 10,000 shares of QDEL at $23.96; cluster buy pattern with 2 other insiders in past 14 days
Director Matthew Strobeck acquired 10,000 shares at $23.96 on 2026-02-13, increasing his holdings by 56.3% to 27.8K shares total. This transaction is part of a cluster pattern with 2 other insiders buying within the past 14 days, which reflects coordinated insider accumulation activity. The purchase occurs while the stock trades at $23.58, down -45.0% from its 52-week high of $42.89 and down -31.3% over the past 30 days, yet the company reported negative net income of $-733.0M on revenue of $699.9M and annual revenue decline of -7.2%. Across his cross-ticker open-market trading history, Strobeck's prior buys have averaged 90-day returns of +885.4% with a 66.67% win rate, providing historical context that his buying activity has been profitable, though this metric reflects his track record across multiple securities rather than QuidelOrtho-specific performance.
