## What this transaction means for investors

The May 13 and 14 sale of Warby Parker stock by Board of Directors member Bradley Singer suggests he was taking advantage of the rise in share price that occurred after the company reported results for the first quarter on May 7.

The transaction is not necessarily a cause for investor concern, since Singer retained 100,00 indirectly-held and more than 16,000 directly-held shares, which suggests he is not in a rush to dispose of his stake.

Warby Parker’s Q1 sales grew 8% year over year to $242.4 million, which galvanized its stock price increase. The company is also releasing eyewear with integrated artificial intelligence. AI is a hot sector, and the news has excited investors. The AI glasses are expected to be released in the fall of 2026.

Because shares are up, Warby Parker’s forward price-to-earnings ratio exceeds 60, which is far higher than it was throughout 2025. This indicates the stock is pricey, and that now is a good time for shareholders to sell, as Bradley Singer has done. However, for investors looking to buy, wait for the stock price to drop first.
