[Form 4] Curtiss-Wright Corp. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Curtiss-Wright Corporation (CW) has filed a Form 4 indicating that Vice President & Chief Operating Officer Kevin M. Rayment purchased 39 common shares on July 2, 2025 through the company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). The purchase price was $414.23 per share, reflecting a 15% ESPP discount to the average market price on June 30, 2025. After the transaction, Rayment directly owns 25,902 shares of CW stock. The filing is exempt under Rule 16b-3 and reports no derivative activity. Given the small size of the acquisition—less than 0.1% of his existing stake—the transaction is viewed as routine and not expected to influence the company’s share price or insider ownership dynamics in a material way.

Positive

• Insider purchase: The COO increased his direct holdings by 39 shares, a generally positive—though minor—confidence indicator.

Negative

• Immaterial size: The transaction value (~$16k) is too small to meaningfully affect insider ownership or signal strong conviction.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR Small ESPP purchase by COO; positive sentiment signal but financially immaterial—overall neutral impact.

The Form 4 records a routine ESPP buy of 39 shares worth roughly $16,155. Such purchases can mildly indicate management confidence, yet the dollar amount is negligible relative to Curtiss-Wright’s market capitalization and the insider’s existing 25,902-share holding. No derivative trades, sales, or unusual timing are present, and the filing does not alter the insider ownership narrative. From a portfolio-management perspective, the disclosure is non-impactful; it neither changes supply-demand dynamics nor conveys new strategic information about CW’s operations or outlook.
