# Top Johnson Controls Executive Cashes In on Major Stock Sale

New insider activity at Johnson Controls ( (JCI) ) has taken place on August 5, 2026.

Johnson Controls has seen notable insider activity as Lei Zhang Schlitz, the company’s Vice President and President of Global Products & Solutions, sold 23,417 shares of Johnson Controls stock in a recent transaction. The sale totaled $3,584,357, highlighting a significant monetization of equity by a senior executive at the company.

**Spark’s Take on JCI Stock**

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, JCI is a Outperform.

The score is driven primarily by strong earnings-call momentum (raised FY2026 outlook, record backlog and robust order growth) and a favorable technical uptrend with solid momentum. Financial performance is generally strong on margins, ROE, and improving leverage, but the sharp TTM revenue decline and weak operating cash flow conversion temper the outlook. Valuation is a modest headwind given a 25.42 P/E and ~1.09% dividend yield.
