JURGENSEN WILLIAM G

Director William G Jurgensen bought 5,000 LW shares at $63.27 on 2024-12-23; stock now -41.9% from 52-week high.

Director Jurgensen purchased 5,000 shares at $63.27, expanding his stake to 181,249 shares (a 2.8% increase from 176,249 shares). The purchase occurs in a challenging context: the stock trades at $63.90, down 41.9% from its 52-week high of $109.99 and down 16.9% over the past 30 days. However, Jurgensen's prior open-market purchases at this ticker show a strong timing pattern—his two previous buys at LW (on 2024-07-26 and 2023-10-16) both posted substantial 90-day gains of 39.6% and 27.0% respectively, with both well-timed at the 90-day mark. His cross-ticker track record for buys also shows an average 90-day return of +19.3% with a 66.67% win rate. Net income is currently negative at $-36.1M (against $1.6B quarterly revenue), and the P/E of 24.86 is elevated for a company in this position, creating tension between the valuation backdrop and the insider's demonstrated pattern of buying before multi-quarter recoveries in this stock.

Director William G. Jurgensen buys 10,000 shares of Lamb Weston (LW) at $55.43; stock down 48.9% from 52-week high.

Director Jurgensen purchased 10,000 shares at $55.43 on 2024-07-26, increasing his holdings by 6.1% to 173,376 shares total. The transaction occurred while LW was trading -48.9% from its 52-week high of $109.99 and down 33.1% over the prior 30 days, representing a substantial decline in valuation. His prior buy at LW on 2023-10-16 generated a 90-day return of +27.0%, demonstrating a track record of well-timed entry points at this ticker; this current purchase coincides with similar market weakness. Against this backdrop, the company maintains a P/E of 9.95 with recent-quarter revenue of $1,458,300,000 and net income of $146,100,000, along with annual revenue growth of +20.9%, suggesting an established business with meaningful profitability despite the stock's recent depreciation.
