Executive Summary
CEO Kevin Holleran sold $828K in open-market shares and the SVP/CLO sold $42K, both under 10b5-1 plans, within a week of Hayward's Q3 beat-and-raise earnings. The CEO's sale is material at 0.03% of market cap, but the 10b5-1 plan and the positive earnings context reduce the bearish signal. Director grants are non-cash and neutral.
