Commvault Executives Dump $9.4M in Stock Amid Class Action, Prior 31% Price Drop
CVLT sits 82% above its 52-week low of $71.75.
Summary
Commvault's CEO, CFO, and Chief Accounting Officer collectively sold over $9.4 million in company stock between February and May 2026. This significant insider selling follows a 31% stock price collapse in January and occurs while the company is facing a securities class action lawsuit, first reported in May and June, alleging misleading statements about its growth. The sales by top management during a period of legal challenge and stock underperformance send a strong negative signal about their confidence. The lead plaintiff deadline for the class action is July 17, 2026.
