What Happened

  • Matthew E. Massengill, a director of Western Digital Corporation (WDC), sold a total of 36,926 shares on February 5, 2026 in multiple open‑market transactions. The individual trades ranged from 400 to 7,000 shares at prices between $256.12 and $268.53 per share, generating total proceeds of approximately $9,616,466 (about $9.62M). The weighted average sale price across these transactions was roughly $260.43 per share.
  • These were sales (not purchases), and they were carried out pursuant to a pre‑existing Rule 10b5‑1 trading plan (adopted November 6, 2025), which typically reflects pre‑scheduled transactions rather than contemporaneous discretionary selling.

Context

  • Because these sales were made under a 10b5‑1 plan, they were likely pre‑arranged and do not necessarily indicate the director’s current view of the company; they are routine disclosures of insider sales. Purchases tend to carry more immediate informational weight for investors.
