Amy Hood, Microsoft's executive vice president and chief financial officer, sold 41,674 Microsoft shares on the open market on Sep 14, 2026, for $20.76 million. The form lists six sales, at average prices from $495.97 to $500.78 a share, for an overall average of $498.27. Footnotes say each line is a weighted average of trades across a price range, from $495.35 to $496.33 for the first and $500.50 to $500.99 for the last. A Form 4, the report company insiders must file with the SEC after trading their company's stock, was filed for Hood on Sep 15, 2026, signed by Julia Stark as her attorney-in-fact. The shares sold were held directly, and after the last line the form states she owned 533,624.427 shares of common stock, also held directly. The Rule 10b5-1 box on the form, which marks trades made under a pre-arranged trading plan, is ticked, and the form's remarks say the sales were made under a plan adopted on Jun 10, 2026.1^,2^,3^,4^,5^,6^,7^,8^,9^,10^,11^,12^,13^,14^,15^,16
