GOTTWALD JOHN D 4

What Happened

• John D. Gottwald, a reported 10% owner of Tredegar Corp (TG), sold a total of 11,914 shares in open-market transactions on Feb 12–13, 2026, generating approximately $107,701 in proceeds. The filings list two disposals: 11,112 shares on 2026-02-12 at $9.05 (proceeds $100,597) and 802 shares on 2026-02-13 at $8.86 (proceeds $7,104). These were sales (not purchases), which are often routine portfolio or trust transactions rather than an explicitly bullish signal.

  • F5 and F6 note weighted sale-price ranges (sales at prices ranging roughly $8.80–$9.19); the filer will provide a full breakdown to the SEC or issuer on request.

Context

• As a 10% owner, Gottwald’s transactions often reflect trust or estate management (per the footnotes) rather than day-to-day executive trading. Sales or gifts by large shareholders can be for tax or estate planning reasons, so they do not necessarily signal management’s view of the company.
