The stock currently trades at $45.66, marginally above its InvestingPro Fair Value estimate, and carries a P/E ratio of 117.5.

  • Power Integrations reported Q4 2025 EPS of $0.23 versus $0.22 expected; shares fell 2.77% in after-hours trading to $45.94 despite the beat.

Sunil Gupta, the vice president of operations at Power Integrations Inc, executed two equity sales on February 9 and 10, according to a Form 4 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The total sale comprised 2,673 shares of common stock, transacted in two separate trades at prices ranging from $45.97 to $46.5696, for aggregate proceeds of $123,717.

The filing breaks down the disposals by date: on February 9 Gupta sold 1,401 shares, and on February 10 he sold an additional 1,272 shares. These sales followed a share award vesting earlier in the month - on February 6 Gupta received 3,840 shares as a result of the vesting of a Performance Stock Unit.

On the market side, Power Integrations' stock is trading at $45.66, which InvestingPro notes is slightly above its Fair Value estimate. The company's reported price-to-earnings ratio stands at 117.5, a figure disclosed in the same analysis.

Separately, Power Integrations released its fourth-quarter 2025 results, posting earnings per share of $0.23 versus the $0.22 analysts had projected. Despite this outperformance on EPS, the stock declined in after-hours activity, falling 2.77% to close at $45.94. The after-hours move followed the earnings announcement and was described in the reporting as possibly tied to investor concerns over broader market conditions and guidance for future periods.

The juxtaposition of an EPS beat and a subsequent share-price decline highlights the nuanced market response to corporate releases. The company’s ability to top expectations in the quarter is a discrete data point, while the market’s reaction underscores that investors weighed that result alongside other inputs and prevailing market sentiment.

For those monitoring insider activity, filings such as the Form 4 provide a clear record of the timing and scale of transactions. In this instance, the sequence included the vesting of performance stock units followed by two sales that together generated $123,717 in proceeds. Observers noting share counts and company metrics can reconcile those figures with Gupta’s post-transaction holding of 96,933 shares and the company metrics reported above.

Risks

  • Market reaction despite an earnings beat - the stock fell 2.77% in after-hours trading following the Q4 announcement, indicating investor sensitivity to guidance or broader market conditions - impacts equity investors and market sentiment.
  • High valuation metric - the company’s P/E ratio of 117.5 may reflect valuation risk relative to current earnings - impacts valuation-focused investors and equity analysts.
  • Insider transactions following PSU vesting - share sales after a material vesting event can affect float and investor perception of insider liquidity decisions - impacts shareholder composition and trading dynamics.
