Crane Co: what insiders have been doing
Crane Co, classified in the Industry sector, is a listed company based in Stamford, United States, founded in 1855. Its insiders report their share dealings to SEC (Form 4). 13 insiders have disclosed 44 filings since 18 October 2025.
Not one open-market sale was filed. On the buying side, 4 insiders reported 5 purchases totalling €840k. Buying on the open market means paying the going price with one's own funds, a different act from receiving shares as pay. Those buying include 3 senior executives and 1 chief executive. Kapoor Sanjay filed the largest purchase, €417k, on 2 February 2026.
Within a 30-day window, 4 purchases overlapped with buying by a second insider. Purchases made close together by different insiders form what is called a cluster. The last purchase on record was published on 1 May 2026, which is 170 days ago. The median gap between a trade and its publication by SEC (Form 4) is 3 days. US insiders must file a Form 4 within two business days of a trade.
For context, the typical company on the same exchange (median of 5,816 companies) published 19 filings over the same period, against 44 filings here. Our records for Crane Co go back to 2021, with 5 purchases and 3 sales on the open market in total. For the fiscal year to 31 December 2025, the annual 10-K puts revenue at 2.31 bn USD and net income at 366.6 m USD, and the dividend at 0.92 USD per share.
For comparison within the same sector, see the insider buying recorded at Tennant Co and Butler National Corp. Every figure here comes from the filings published by SEC (Form 4) and describes the past, not future prices; it is not investment advice.

About Crane Co
Crane Company (NYSE: CR) is a U.S.-listed industrial company traded on the NYSE in the United States. For francophone investors, it represents a specialized industrial platform rather than a broad commodity-style manufacturer: the group designs and manufactures engineered components and systems for demanding applications where reliability, precision and technical qualification matter. Its headquarters are in Stamford, Connecticut, United States.
Crane traces its roots back to 1855, giving it a long industrial heritage and a deep engineering culture. Over time, the company has actively reshaped its portfolio to concentrate on businesses with stronger growth, higher margins and more attractive competitive positioning. That portfolio evolution was especially visible recently with the divestiture of the Engineered Materials segment, completed effective January 1, 2025, which further simplified the company and reinforced its focus on more specialized activities.

Today, Crane Company operates through two reportable segments: Aerospace & Electronics and Process Flow Technologies. Aerospace & Electronics serves the aerospace, defense and electronics markets with mission-critical components and sub-systems used in harsh and highly regulated environments. Process Flow Technologies covers fluid-handling and process equipment, including valves, pumps, control systems and related engineered solutions for specialized industrial end markets. This mix gives Crane exposure to attractive niches with meaningful barriers to entry, supported by engineering depth, customer qualification requirements and aftermarket support. ([sec.gov](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1944013/000162828025008728/cr-20241231.htm?utm_source=openai))
From a competitive standpoint, Crane stands out for serving customers where failure is expensive and technical performance is essential, which tends to support pricing power and recurring demand. Management has consistently emphasized a portfolio shift toward higher-growth, higher-margin end markets, backed by pricing discipline and operational execution. In 2024, the company reported strong results, including improved profitability and a record Aerospace & Electronics backlog of $864 million at year-end. Crane also announced a higher annual dividend for 2025 and full-year EPS guidance, underscoring confidence in the business trajectory. ([sec.gov](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/0001944013/000162828025002642/exhibit991-pressreleasexq4.htm?utm_source=openai))
Geographically, Crane has an international footprint with manufacturing, engineering and service capabilities in the United States, the United Kingdom, Mexico, Japan and Germany, plus a global sales presence. For investors in Europe, the profile is therefore that of a U.S.-listed NYSE industrial company with a globally diversified operating base, focused on engineered niches that can offer resilience, margin quality and long-term value creation.
