Shriram Revankar, senior vice president at Dolby Laboratories, sold 3,000 shares of Class A common stock on February 17, 2026, for $66.14 per share, generating proceeds of $198,420. After the transaction Revankar held 83,218 shares, including restricted stock units that are subject to forfeiture until vesting. The sale was recorded as directly owned and was signed by Daniel Rodriguez as Attorney-in-Fact. The move came amid Dolby's first-quarter 2026 report in which the company posted EPS of $1.06 and revenue of $347 million, both above analyst expectations.

Key Points

  • Shriram Revankar sold 3,000 shares of Dolby Class A common stock on February 17, 2026, at $66.14 per share, netting $198,420.
  • After the sale Revankar retained 83,218 shares, which include 59,172 shares tied to restricted stock units that remain subject to forfeiture until they vest.
  • Dolby Laboratories reported Q1 2026 EPS of $1.06 and revenue of $347 million, both above analyst expectations, with the stock rising following the results - sectors affected include technology and equity markets.

Shriram Revankar, who serves as a senior vice president at Dolby Laboratories, Inc. (NASDAQ: DLB), sold 3,000 shares of Class A common stock on February 17, 2026, according to a Form 4 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The shares were sold at a price of $66.14 per share, producing total proceeds of $198,420. Following the disposition, Revankar’s reported ownership stood at 83,218 shares in total. That figure includes 59,172 shares that are attributable to restricted stock units; those units remain subject to forfeiture until they vest.

The filing specifies that the shares were directly owned by Revankar. The document also indicates that the Form 4 was signed by Daniel Rodriguez, acting as Attorney-in-Fact for Shriram Revankar.


Dolby Laboratories disclosed quarterly financial results around the same period. For the first quarter of 2026 the company recorded earnings per share of $1.06, compared with a consensus forecast of $0.88, representing a 20.45% positive surprise versus expectations. Revenue for the quarter came in at $347 million, above the $332.07 million analysts had been expecting.

Those outsized results were followed by an upward move in the company’s share price, according to the filing. The company’s reported earnings and revenue both exceeded market forecasts, a performance noted in the filing as a notable achievement for Dolby Laboratories in the current fiscal year.

The Form 4 provides a snapshot of an insider sale that coincides with a quarter in which the company reported stronger-than-expected financial metrics. The filing also clarifies the composition of the executive’s remaining holdings, including the portion that remains contingent on future vesting events.

All information on the transaction amount, share count, pricing, post-sale holdings and the role of the Attorney-in-Fact is drawn from the SEC Form 4 filing and Dolby’s reported quarterly results as stated in the company’s filings.

Risks

  • A material portion of Revankar’s remaining holdings - 59,172 shares - are linked to restricted stock units that are subject to forfeiture until they vest, which affects the certainty of his long-term holding level.
  • The Form 4 shows the transaction was executed under an Attorney-in-Fact signature, reflecting that the sale was processed through a designated representative rather than solely through a hand-signed filing.
  • While Dolby beat expectations for Q1 2026, the filing itself does not include information about future quarters, leaving future financial performance as an uncertainty.
