Castagnetto divested 45,266 shares, cutting his position by 57.07%. These transactions collectively generated proceeds in excess of $14 million.

For Q3, C.H. Robinson reported earnings per share of $1.40, exceeding consensus by $0.11, on revenue of $4.14 billion—a 10.9% year-over-year decline. Net margin stood at 3.64% and return on equity at 34.77%. The board approved a quarterly dividend of $0.63 per share, up 1.6% from the prior quarter, representing a 51.1% payout ratio and an annualized yield of approximately 1.5%. Management’s ability to expand the dividend despite revenue pressures highlights cash flow resilience and commitment to shareholder returns, factors that may attract yield-seeking investors.
