# All 7 Autoliv Insiders Sell ALV Stock Within Days of Receiving Equity Awards

> Seven Autoliv executives including CEO Mikael Bratt sold a combined $2.9M in ALV stock between Feb 24-26, just days after receiving equity awards on Feb 19.

All seven Autoliv insiders who received equity awards on February 19, 2026, turned around and sold shares within five days — collecting a combined $2.91 million in what amounts to an immediate cash-out of freshly granted stock. CEO Mikael Bratt led the selling with $1.11 million, followed by EVP Franz-Josef Kortuem at $1.0 million. The remaining five executives each sold smaller blocks ranging from $60,000 to $210,000. The Full Sell Sheet Insider Title Date Value Shares After Mikael Bratt President & CEO Feb 24 $1.11M 29,290 Franz-Josef Kortuem EVP Feb 26 $1.00M 5,549 Anthony Nellis EVP Legal & General Counsel Feb 24 $210K 8,212 Magnus Jarlegren Pres., Autoliv Europe Feb 25 $190K 7,739 Christian Swahn EVP, Supply Chain Feb 24 $180K 5,314 Per Jonas Jademyr EVP Quality & Proj. Mgmt Feb 24 $160K 1,963 Mikael Hagstrom VP, Corporate Control Feb 24 $60K 1,224 Total $2.91M Award-Then-Sell Pattern All seven executives received equity awards (transaction code "A") on February 19. Within three to five business days, every single one had filed Form 4s disclosing sales. This rapid award-to-sell cycle is common at many public companies but rarely involves 100% participation across the executive team. The sales prices clustered tightly between $120.40 and $123.51 per share, with the majority executing at exactly $122.03 — suggesting a coordinated disposition plan rather than independent market orders. How Much Did They Keep? Despite the selling, most executives retained meaningful positions: CEO Bratt: 29,290 shares (~$3.6M) — sold ~8% of holdings Nellis: 8,212 shares (~$1.0M) Jarlegren: 7,739 shares (~$950K) Kortuem: 5,549 shares (~$680K) Swahn: 5,314 shares (~$650K) Jademyr: 1,963 shares (~$240K) Hagstrom: 1,224 shares (~$150K) — smallest remaining stake Bottom Line When every insider at a company sells immediately after receiving awards, it typically reflects tax obligation management rather than bearish conviction. However, the 100% participation rate and the speed of execution are worth noting for ALV investors. The fact that CEO Bratt sold the largest dollar amount ($1.11M) while retaining the largest position (29,290 shares) suggests he remains the most committed of the group.
