Watts Water Technologies Inc: what insiders have been doing
Watts Water Technologies Inc is a Technology company. Its directors and officers file their transactions with SEC (Form 4). The last twelve months, up to 20 October 2026, brought 49 filings signed by 17 insiders.
The flow runs one way only: 13 sales worth €6.9M, from 6 insiders, and no purchase. The largest single trade was a sale of €2.1M by Horne Timothy P, published on 23 February 2026.
Compared with its exchange (5,453 companies, median 22 filings), a count of 49 filings is above the norm. The full history, which starts in 2016, counts no purchases against 185 sales. On the fundamentals side, the SEC filing (10-K) for the period ending 31 December 2025 lists revenue at 2.44 bn USD and net income at 340.8 m USD; the dividend was 1.99 USD per share.
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. Keep in mind that insiders sell for many reasons unrelated to the outlook, from tax bills to estate planning.
Elsewhere in the same sector, our signals recently picked up insider purchases at Applied Digital Corp. and Gitlab Inc. This summary is built from SEC (Form 4) disclosures alone and does not predict where the share price will go.

About Watts Water Technologies Inc
Watts Water Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: WTS) is a U.S.-based industrial company focused on water flow management, plumbing, heating, and water quality solutions. Headquartered in North Andover, Massachusetts, United States, Watts serves residential, commercial, and industrial end markets globally, with operations and sales across the Americas, Europe, and APMEA (Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa). Its competitive positioning is rooted in mission-critical building infrastructure: products that regulate, protect, treat, and conserve water and energy in and around buildings. ([sec.gov](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/795403/000155837025001102/wts-20241231x10k.htm?utm_source=openai))
The company has a long industrial heritage and currently highlights more than 150 years of history, which is meaningful in a category where reliability, code compliance, and engineering credibility matter. Over time, Watts has built a broad portfolio of brands and technologies that allow it to sell through plumbing and heating wholesalers, OEMs, specialty distributors, and retail/DIY channels. In 2024, wholesale distributors still represented the majority of net sales, underscoring the importance of professional distribution networks to the business model.

Watts’ product set spans pressure and flow control devices, backflow prevention, thermostatic and safety valves, water filtration, softening and anti-scale systems, leak-detection technologies, and broader water quality and hydronic solutions. The company also emphasizes conservation, safety, and energy-efficiency applications, which aligns well with tighter sustainability standards and growing demand for smarter building infrastructure. From a competitive standpoint, Watts benefits from a well-known brand, a wide product breadth, and global reach, while competing against specialized niche players and larger diversified industrial manufacturers across different product categories and geographies. ([sec.gov](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/795403/000155837025001102/wts-20241231x10k.htm?utm_source=openai))
Recent highlights show a clear strategic focus on intelligent water management and sustainability. Watts expanded its Nexa platform by combining it with The Detection Group’s wireless leak-detection technology, strengthening its offering in connected water safety and property protection. The company also launched new performance monitors for water quality systems to improve maintenance visibility and customer alerts. In parallel, Watts has received multiple sustainability-related recognitions in 2025 and 2026, reflecting its operational focus on emissions reduction, water stewardship, and environmentally oriented product development. These developments reinforce Watts’ positioning as a quality-focused, environmentally aligned water infrastructure company listed on the NYSE in the United States.
