Form 4 reports a single transaction on a single day. An insider may file again, and a sale under a pre-arranged plan is one of a scheduled series rather than a decision taken that week.

chief executive and chairperson Jayshree Ullal sold 532,002 shares of the company's common stock on August 12, 2026, according to a report filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Form 4 lists a price per share of $ and a total transaction value of $110,652,413. It records 16,160,496 shares held after the transaction. The filing indicates the sale was made under a trading plan. The filing identifies the company as of , California, trading under the ticker , and gives the insider's address as , California. Form 4 filings disclose transactions by corporate officers, directors and principal shareholders; the document does not state a reason for the sale beyond the trading-plan designation. This account rests on that single SEC filing. The record carries no accompanying statement from Arista Networks or from Ullal, and it sets out no detail about the transaction beyond the figures and the trading-plan designation described above.

How we work

This site models an investigative reporter rather than a wire desk. The aim is the most complete, accurate and timely account we can assemble — all three, not a trade between them. Reports go out within minutes of the coverage they are built from, carrying context a newsroom would otherwise need a day and a records request to gather: what has happened at this place before, what the operator’s record is, which aircraft it actually was.

Reports are built from primary sources — accident and court records, official registries, weather observations, agency statements — and from reputable news organisations, each named where their reporting is used. Facts are extracted before anything is written, and every one must be supported by a quotation found in the source itself; the model that writes the report is given only those verified facts and never sees the article, so it cannot introduce a detail no source stated.

Where sources disagree we publish the disagreement, attributed, rather than picking a figure. Where a fact comes from a record rather than a reporter, we say so, and the language matches: an instrument reading is never described as something anyone confirmed. Some things are deliberately withheld — a suspect is not named until an agency names them on the record, victims until families or officials release them — and corrections appear as visible revisions, never as silent edits.

None of that makes a report true. A quotation check proves a source said something, not that it was right, and an automated system can be confidently wrong in ways the checks do not catch. If something here is wrong, the feedback above is how it gets found. The full methodology, including what we refuse to publish.
