Amazon Executive Files to Sell 16,844 Shares Under Pre-Arranged Trading Plan

Amazon's (NASDAQ: AMZN) executive Douglas Herrington has filed to sell 16,844 shares of Amazon.com common stock under a pre-arranged trading plan. The sale is planned for August 17, 2026, and will be executed through Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC on NASDAQ.

Herrington's filing also lists recent sales under the 10b5-1 trading plan over the prior three months. During this period, he sold a total of 9,370 shares for approximately $2.75 million.
