1 insider bought €11k of shares over the last 90 days, the latest filed 22 Sept 2026.
Headquartered in Menlo Park, United States, Exponent Inc belongs to the Business Services sector and traces its origins to 1967. Filings by its managers are published through SEC (Form 4). In the past year (18 October 2025 to 18 October 2026), 49 filings came from 15 insiders.
Both sides are active: 1 purchase worth €11k and 13 sales worth €1.1M, from 1 insider and 4 insiders respectively. No amount is published for 2 filings, which the totals therefore leave out. Buying on the open market means paying the going price with one's own funds, a different act from receiving shares as pay. The buyers include 1 senior executive. One trade stands out by size: a sale of €131k from Corrigan Catherine, disclosed on 16 April 2026.
Compared with its exchange (5,811 companies, median 19 filings), a count of 49 filings is above the norm. Our records for Exponent Inc go back to 2021, with 2 purchases and 62 sales on the open market in total. For the fiscal year to 2 January 2026, the annual 10-K puts revenue at 582.0 m USD and net income at 106.0 m USD, and the dividend at 1.20 USD per share.
The last purchase on record was published on 22 September 2026, which is 26 days ago. Between a trade and the moment it shows up on SEC (Form 4), the median delay is 2 days. For comparison, the SEC allows two business days to file a Form 4. Selling is not necessarily a view on the stock: liquidity needs and diversification are common motives.
In the same sector, recent insider purchases at Coursera, Inc. also feature in our signals. This summary is built from SEC (Form 4) disclosures alone and does not predict where the share price will go.

Exponent, Inc. (ticker: EXPO) is a United States-based engineering and scientific consulting company listed on the NASDAQ. For francophone investors, Exponent is best understood as a specialized, high-value advisory business rather than a traditional industrial services name. The company traces its roots back to Failure Analysis Associates, founded in 1967, and adopted the Exponent name in 1998. Its corporate headquarters are in Menlo Park, California, placing it at the center of a technology-driven ecosystem that suits its work at the intersection of science, engineering, risk, and innovation.
Exponent’s business model is built around multidisciplinary expertise. The firm brings together scientists, physicians, engineers, and business consultants spanning more than 90 technical disciplines to solve difficult, often high-stakes problems for clients. Its work covers the full product and asset lifecycle: design support, testing, validation, failure analysis, accident investigation, risk management, regulatory support, user research, and litigation-related consulting. The company reports its activities primarily through two segments: engineering and other scientific, which accounts for the bulk of revenue, and environmental and health. This mix gives Exponent exposure to multiple end markets, including energy and utilities, transportation, construction, medical devices, consumer products, chemicals, and life sciences.
Exponent’s competitive position is that of a premium specialist with strong barriers to entry. Its reputation is built on technical rigor, independence, and the ability to handle complex, sensitive assignments where outcomes matter materially to clients. The company is particularly well known for failure analysis, dispute-related consulting, and safety-critical engineering support. In practical terms, that means Exponent often benefits from both proactive demand, such as product development, user studies, and risk management, and reactive demand, such as post-incident investigations, claims, and expert testimony. That combination tends to make the business resilient across cycles.
Geographically, Exponent remains predominantly U.S.-anchored, with its historical base in California and a broad domestic footprint serving clients across the country. It can also support international matters when needed, but the United States is the core market. Recent developments reinforce the company’s operating momentum: in first-quarter 2026, Exponent reported double-digit growth in revenues and earnings, driven by user research for consumer electronics clients integrating AI, utility risk management work tied to extreme weather conditions, and increased failure-analysis and dispute-related activity in energy, construction, and medical devices. In April 2026, the company also announced leadership changes, elevating John Pye to President and Eric Anderson to Chief Financial Officer, while Catherine Corrigan continued as CEO. These moves suggest continuity in strategy and a focus on scaling a differentiated technical platform in a market that increasingly values safety, reliability, and independent expertise.
