"% of total stake" is the shares in this event against all the vested shares the person held that day, across every share class and holding entity, after that day's vesting. "n/a" means the person's holdings don't reconcile, or the row is a purchase. "Holdings record incomplete" means more shares were sold than the filings show the person held that day, so a percentage would be wrong.

Sep 15, 2026Denise Blomquist gave away 600 shares as a gift. That is 3.6% of the total stake held that day.

What stands out

Gregory Smith sold 40% of vested holdings: 30K shares for $3.1M, none under a disclosed plan.Largest sale, Nov 19, 2025
Harry Kiil sold $5.6M of stock with no disclosed trading plan. The filings don't state a reason.Largest such sale, Feb 19, 2026
Matthew Walter sold 3.1K shares (9.7% of starting holdings), but 16K more vested, so the stake grew (from 32K to 40K).Largest sale, Jul 8, 2026

Percentages cover 19 of 22 officers and directors. Left out: Harry Kiil (most of their shares vested during the period, so a percentage would mislead); Joon Lee and John Groetelaars (held no vested shares at the start). Disclosed company stock is not an insider's whole wealth.

Who sold, and how much of their stake

Officers and directors, past 12 months. Each bar is the insider's vested stake at the start of the period (Oct 8, 2025). The gold part is what they sold.

Common questions

Is the Medtronic CEO selling stock?

No. Geoffrey Martha reported no open-market sales in the past 12 months.

Why are Medtronic insiders selling?

Filings rarely give a reason, and we don't guess at one. What they show is how the sales were made: 3% of sales by value ran under 10b5-1 trading plans disclosed in the filings and 97% had no disclosed plan. A trading plan schedules sales in advance.

Are any Medtronic insiders buying?

No. Officers and directors reported no purchases in the past 12 months.

How much of their stake did Medtronic insiders sell?

About 4.3% overall. As a group they ended with more shares than they started with. The biggest seller whose stake can be measured, Gregory Smith, gave up 40% of starting holdings. That covers the 12 months to Oct 8, 2026 and counts vested shares reported on SEC Forms 3, 4 and 5, which is not an insider's whole wealth.

22 of 22 insiders fully reconciled: starting holdings plus reported transactions match ending holdings (4 exactly, 18 with a minor or footnoted difference). Percentages cover 19 of 22 officers and directors. Left out: Harry Kiil (most of their shares vested during the period, so a percentage would mislead); Joon Lee and John Groetelaars (held no vested shares at the start). "Still held" compares ending with starting vested shares; a plus sign means the holding grew.

What explains the selling$8.9M of sales by plan status, purpose, seller and month

Officer and director open-market sales: $8.9M across 91,298 shares. Plan status and stated purpose are separate questions, and a sale can have both.

By plan status

The lighter segment is sales with no plan disclosed in the filing ($8.7M), including tax-related sales outside a plan.

No plan disclosed · $8.7M

Sales with no 10b5-1 plan and no tax reference in the filing. $5.6M of it is Harry Kiil. No plan disclosed is a statement about the filing, not about why the sale happened. Largest such sale: Harry Kiil, Feb 19, 2026

Taxes

98,529 shares ($8.4M) were withheld by the company for taxes, which isn't a market sale.

Open-market sales (Form 4 code S) by people who were officers or directors, in split-adjusted shares. Earlier years include people who have since left. A sale that an outside holder also reports (a family trust, a fund) is counted with outside holders in every year. Shares, not dollars, are compared, so a change in the stock price doesn't look like a change in selling. Years the filings don't fully cover are shown but left out of the average.

Sources and methodology737 filings from SEC EDGAR, and how we read them

All 737 Forms 3, 4 and 5 filed for Medtronic (SEC CIK 1613103) from Jan 28, 2015 to Sep 17, 2026, retrieved from SEC EDGAR on Oct 8, 2026. Prices are the ones reported in each filing, often weighted averages. 7 filings were left out because Medtronic filed them as an owner of another company's stock.

Holdings. Each holding line (a share class plus an owner, such as a trust or LLC) carries its last reported balance forward. Entities first reported during the period start at zero, so transfers between an insider's own trusts don't count as selling. Lines not reported for three years or more are listed separately and left out of totals.

Sales. A sale counts as under a 10b5-1 plan if its footnote cites one or the filing's Rule 10b5-1 box is checked, and as tax-related if its footnote cites tax obligations or sell-to-cover. Shares withheld by the company for taxes are listed separately. Sales with neither attribute are labeled "no plan disclosed".
