Analysis · LINC · Trade & Services
Juniper Investment Company, LLC, an institutional affiliate, has executed a significant open market sale of 275,000 shares, valued at over $9.5 million. This transaction follows a Form 144 filing on February 25, 2026, which signaled the intent for this sale. The sale occurs just two days after the company announced strong Q4 and full-year 2025 results, and while the stock is trading near its 52-week high.
