Kenneth G. Cole, an officer at Masco Corp, has filed to sell 34,470 shares of the company, valued at approximately $2.78 million. This move is significant as it reflects ongoing activity within the heating equipment sector, where Masco operates.

The company is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the SEC file number 001-05794. Its business address is located at 17450 College Parkway, Livonia, MI.

The SEC filing, dated October 30, 2026, indicates that Cole's sale is part of a stock option exercise. The filing states, "Nature of acquisition transaction: Stock Option Exercise."
