Krause Paul J, Vice President and Chief Legal Officer, has demonstrated a consistent pattern of selling activity in Harley-Davidson (HOG) stock over the past three years, with no recorded purchases. SEC filings show 27 transactions totaling $420,237 in sales, all involving HOG shares. The sales occurred in clusters, primarily in February of each year, suggesting a structured divestment approach. Notable transactions include a $87,294 sale on February 6, 2025, and a $77,280 sale on February 5, 2024—the two largest single dispositions in the dataset. Smaller but repeated sales, such as the $36,061 transaction on February 17, 2026, and multiple sub-$25,000 dispositions in early February 2025 and 2024, indicate a methodical reduction in holdings rather than a one-time liquidation.
The filings reveal that Krause’s transactions are exclusively coded as "F" (indicating sales to cover tax obligations) or "A" (award or acquisition of securities), with no open-market purchases. The absence of buying activity and the recurring February timing—often coinciding with vesting schedules—points to routine stock-based compensation management rather than discretionary trading. While the dollar amounts vary, the consistency in direction (selling) and timing suggests adherence to a predetermined plan rather than reactive market decisions. The lack of recent transactions in 2026 beyond February may reflect either a pause in activity or exhaustion of eligible shares under existing plans.
