What this transaction means for investors

Dougherty was involved in transactions a week before this one, where he had performance-based restricted stock units that vested on Feb. 6. The stock units vested were a part of a performance program, in which the units vest based on a metric the company uses, so the additions were pre-determined. There were 5,462 shares added to his portfolio from the units that vested, and then 1,378 shares were disposed on behalf of the company to cover tax withholding requirements.

There were at least eight other executives that were involved in transactions after the company had its Q3 2026 earnings report on Feb. 3, but most of the transactions involved stock options or stock units that were scheduled ahead of time to vest. However, it has been very convenient timing for those executives as Cirrus posted record numbers in net income and earnings per share (EPS).

The stock is also up 18% in 2026 so far, after rising around that same amount for the entire year of 2025. With strong financials and stock performance, CRUS looks to have potential for substantial long-term growth.
