Walmart ( (WMT) ) has shared an announcement.
On December 24, 2025, Walmart disclosed that Chris Nicholas, Executive Vice President and President and Chief Executive Officer of Sam’s Club U.S., adopted a Rule 10b5-1 stock trading plan that will automatically sell 2,900 shares of Walmart common stock on a specified date each month from April 2026 through March 2027, for a maximum of 34,800 shares, as part of his long-term asset diversification, tax and financial planning strategy. The plan, which leaves Nicholas with no discretion over trade timing and is consistent with Walmart’s insider trading policy and stock ownership guidelines, is structured so that he will continue to meet the company’s requirement to hold stock equal to at least five times his base salary, with all transactions to be reported through required securities filings, providing transparency and mitigating concerns over insider trading.
