Murphy Brady M, President & CEO of Tetra Technologies (TTI), has demonstrated a consistent pattern of selling company stock over the past two years, with no recorded purchases in the same period. SEC filings reveal 36 transactions totaling $4.49 million in sales, all involving TTI shares. The most significant disposals occurred in early 2026, including a $1.29 million sale on March 14 and a $427,500 transaction on February 28. Earlier activity shows a similar trend, with multiple six-figure sales in February 2025—$230,600 on February 19 and two transactions totaling $246,590 on February 25—followed by a $316,273 sale on March 15 of that year.
The transactions, coded as "F" for gift or "M" for market sales, show that Murphy has primarily reduced holdings through planned dispositions rather than open-market orders. Notably, the sales are spaced months apart, suggesting a structured divestment approach rather than a reaction to short-term market conditions. While the CEO’s remaining stake isn’t disclosed in the filings, the absence of any offsetting buys and the repeated pattern of disposals indicate a clear directional bias toward reducing exposure to TTI stock. The lack of recent transactions since March 2026 leaves open whether this trend will continue or pause in the coming quarters.
