CrowdStrike President Michael Sentonas sells about $64 million in stock under trading plan; CEO Kurtz sells 20,000 shares

Two of CrowdStrike’s top executives cashed out stock at the end of September, led by a roughly $64 million sale from President Michael Sentonas, according to Form 4 filings submitted late Friday.

Sentonas sold 241,944 shares of CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. Class A common stock on Sept. 30 in a series of trades with weighted-average prices between $262.71 and $267.96. Based on those reported prices, the sales total about $64.2 million, an IDD calculation. The filing says the sales included shares sold under a pre-arranged trading plan he adopted on July 1, 2026.

The same day, Sentonas exercised 12,920 stock options at $1.665 a share. The filing says those options were granted on June 1, 2016. After the transactions, he reported directly owning 1,245,517 shares, a figure that includes shares to be issued on the vesting of restricted stock units.

Chief Executive George Kurtz, who is also a director, reported a smaller sale: 20,000 shares, split evenly between Sept. 30 and Oct. 1, at weighted-average prices ranging from $261.16 to $268.81. That works out to about $5.3 million. His Form 4 says the sales were made under a trading plan adopted on Jan. 6, 2026.

Kurtz reported 7,551,504 shares held directly after the trades, plus 400,000 shares held by the Kurtz Family Dynasty Trust, in which he disclaims beneficial ownership except to the extent of his pecuniary interest.
