StandardAero, Inc. reported an insider sale by Chief Executive Ford Russell Wayne on March 4, 2026, according to a Form 4 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The transaction involved 40,000 shares of common stock and generated proceeds of $1,203,456.
Transaction specifics show a weighted average price of $30.0864 per share, with individual sale prices between $30.00 and $30.20. The shares were sold indirectly via a Family LLC, and the sale was carried out under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan that Mr. Russell Wayne adopted on August 18, 2025. The Form 4 was signed by Michael Kaplan, Attorney-in-Fact, on March 6, 2026. After the disposition, Mr. Russell Wayne indirectly owns 606,955 shares of StandardAero.
Market context for the company at the time of the filing is mixed. StandardAero shares were trading at $28.87, which is below the CEO’s weighted average sale price. External valuation figures cited in the filing indicate analysts’ price targets lie between $35 and $42.50, and an InvestingPro analysis noted the stock appears undervalued based on those targets. The company’s market capitalization is listed at $9.6 billion, and its price-to-earnings ratio stands at 36.3.
StandardAero also disclosed its fourth-quarter 2025 financial results, reporting revenue of $1.6 billion, a 13.5% increase from the same quarter a year earlier. Earnings per share for the period were $0.24. Despite the revenue growth and positive earnings, the stock declined following the results, a reaction the filing characterizes as potentially reflecting investor concerns about future challenges facing the company.
The combination of a sizable insider sale executed through a pre-existing trading plan, a reported valuation gap between current price and analyst targets, and recent quarterly results gives investors multiple data points to weigh. The filing and accompanying company disclosures present concrete figures on ownership, transaction mechanics, and recent operating results; they do not, however, provide further commentary on management intent beyond the existence of the trade plan.
