Meanwhile, it was recently reported that CAO Dean A. Chin had sold around 2,815 shares of ABM Industries’ stock at an average price of $47.86 per share. This translates to a total transaction amounting to $134,725.90. Following this sale, Chin currently holds approximately 19,735 shares of the business services provider’s stock.

The sale by Chin is not unusual as insiders commonly sell their shares from time to time for various reasons such as diversification and capital allocation planning.
