Jun 17

According to the latest Form 4 filing, APPLIED OPTOELECTRONICS, INC. (AAOI) President, CEO and Director Chih-Hsiang (Thompson) Lin disposed of a total of 145,655 shares of common stock on June 12, 2026. Of these, 86,655 shares were withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations (transaction code F), and 59,000 shares were sold in the open market at a weighted average price of approximately $166.53 per share, with actual sale prices ranging from $163.78 to $171.8. Following these transactions, Mr. Lin directly holds 1,302,436 shares. While concentrated sales by a top executive can be viewed as a neutral to slightly bearish signal for AAOI’s share price, a significant portion of the shares were tax-related withholdings, which does not necessarily imply a negative view on the company’s fundamentals.
