Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Carl M. Eschenbach, Workday, Inc. (WDAY) director and CEO, reported multiple disposals of Class A common stock on 10/01/2025 that were executed by the Eschenbach Family Trust under a previously adopted Rule 10b5-1 trading plan. The Form 4 shows specific block sales at weighted average prices ranging from $232.01 to $241.68, and an aggregate line item reporting 655,436 shares disposed.

The filing states the Reporting Person transferred shares into the Trust on several dates in 2025 and that the Trust — of which the reporting person and his spouse are trustees and beneficiaries — sold shares per the plan. The Form 4 also discloses remaining indirect and direct beneficial holdings, and that outstanding equity awards (RSUs and PRSUs) total 448,087 underlying shares noted in the footnotes.

Positive

  • Sales executed under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, indicating pre‑planned transactions
  • Disclosure of weighted‑average price ranges for each sale series, enabling price transparency

Negative

  • Reported disposal of 655,436 Class A shares, a sizable insider sale reported on 10/01/2025
  • Shares transferred into the Eschenbach Family Trust and sold, reducing the Reporting Person's indirect holdings

Insights

Insider sales were pre-planned under a Rule 10b5-1 plan; sales were sizable.

The Form 4 confirms the sales on 10/01/2025 were effected by the Eschenbach Family Trust pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan adopted on 10/07/2024, which provides an affirmative defense to claims of opportunistic insider trading when conditions are satisfied.

The filing shows multiple transactions at weighted-average prices between $232.01 and $241.68 and an aggregate reported disposal of 655,436 Class A shares. For governance review, the 10b5-1 disclosure and trust transfers are key facts for assessing whether the trades followed a preset schedule rather than being responsive to undisclosed material information.
