Netgear, Inc.
A maker of networking gear, NETGEAR sells Wi-Fi mesh systems like Orbi, high-performance routers like Nighthawk, mobile hotspots, and ProSafe switches, along with cloud-managed networking and security for small businesses and Pro AV professionals. It started in 1996 when a small team inside Bay Networks launched a venture to make affordable "plug-and-play" networking for homes and small offices after their parent company passed on the idea — the name simply blends "networking" and "gear." Its popular Orbi mesh system came later, but the founding story of a spun-off team democratizing networking is the tale worth retelling.

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 all recorded history: -5.12M shares. Grants, option exercises and tax withholding are excluded — they are compensation mechanics, not decisions to buy or sell.
