Graco Inc.
An American maker of fluid-handling equipment, from paint sprayers and texture sprayers for professional painters and DIYers to pumps, lubrication systems, and powder-coating gear for factories. It was founded in Minneapolis in 1926, when parking-lot attendant Russell Gray grew frustrated that manual grease guns froze in cold winters, so he invented an air-powered one. Its name is a shortening of its original "Gray Company," and it now serves dozens of countries through distributors.

Select a row to see that insider’s individual transactions. Sum of the holdings confirmed in the 12 months before this insider's last filing. A Form 4 reports a holding per line — held directly, or through a named trust, partnership or foundation, and in each share class separately — never a person’s total. Lines not restated in that time are left out and shown apart: an active filer restates what they still hold, so a line they did not restate is more often an entity since renamed, whose shares a successor line reports too. An amber marker means some were left out.
Net open-market activity over the last 5 years: -840.9K shares. Grants, option exercises and tax withholding are excluded — they are compensation mechanics, not decisions to buy or sell.
