  • Dell executives sold approximately $31.7 million in company shares during September.

  • The AI server backlog reached $95 billion, up from $51.3 billion year over year.

Dell Technologies shares declined 2% Thursday, closing near $536.59 after SEC filings showed four senior executives sold approximately $31.7 million in stock during September. CFO David Kennedy and General Counsel Richard Rothberg sold more than $15 million combined on September 17, while other disclosed sales involved Chief Human Resources Officer Jennifer Saavedra and Chief Marketing Officer Geraldine Tunnell. Most transactions were conducted through pre-established Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The sales represented less than 1% of Dell’s more than 315 million outstanding shares and came as the stock rose 17% since the start of September. The rally followed quarterly results showing AI server revenue had doubled year over year, an unfulfilled order backlog of $95 billion versus $51.3 billion previously, and quarterly revenue of $46.97 billion. Analysts remain broadly constructive, with a consensus Moderate Buy rating and an average price target of $567.12, although concerns include a weaker 2027 PC market forecast and higher bond yields. Dell has a $341.17 billion market capitalization, a price-to-earnings multiple of 31.14, and a quarterly dividend of $0.63 per share payable October 30.
