## Superinvestors (SEC 13F-HR, Q2 2026)
2 of 80 tracked investors hold APTV. Each row is the investor's latest 13F; change is vs their prior-quarter share count.
| Investor | Firm | % of portfolio | Value | Change |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Alex Roepers | Atlantic Investment Management | 14.51% | $27.9M | Added +40.5% |

## Insider sales (SEC Form 4, open-market, last ~7 months)
2 of 2 under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan (scheduled in advance). Unplanned sales were timed by the insider.
| Trade date | Insider | Role | Shares | Value | % of holdings sold | 10b5-1 plan | Insider type |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-06-15 | Louissaint Obed D. | EVP & Chief People Officer | 3,000 | $209K | 1.4% | Yes (adopted March 13, 2026) | Too little history (no open-market trades in 2023 or 2024) |
| 2026-06-03 | Ramundo Katherine H | EVP, CLO, CCO & Secretary | 2,000 | $157K | 1.2% | Yes (adopted February 7, 2026) | Too little history (no open-market trades in 2023 or 2024) |
% of holdings sold = shares sold ÷ (shares sold + all holdings the insider reported on that Form 4, direct and through trusts).
Insider type follows Cohen, Malloy & Pomorski (Journal of Finance, 2012). An insider who traded the stock in the same calendar month in each of the past three years is a routine trader; one who traded in each of those years without such a pattern is an opportunistic trader. In their study, trades by opportunistic insiders predicted future returns and trades by routine insiders did not. Counts open-market purchases and sales only (SEC Form 4 codes P and S) by that insider in that company. Not investment advice.

## Insider purchases (SEC Form 4, open-market, last ~7 months)
5 purchases, $8.6M. Private placements, offerings, dividend reinvestment and employee stock purchase plan buys are excluded.
