Ron Wyden's Senate Filing Records a $100,001-$250,000 Berry-to-Amcor Exchange 465 Days Later
A Senate electronic financial disclosure filed by Sen. Ron Wyden on August 8, 2026 records one spouse-owned stock exchange dated April 30, 2025. The eFD row describes Berry Global shares exchanged for Amcor ordinary shares received and reports a $100,001-$250,000 amount band. The 465-day gap between the reported transaction date and the filing date is a disclosure-timing fact, not evidence of insider trading or an explanation for why the report was filed late.
Observed in the records
A Senate PTR filed August 8 records a spouse-owned Berry-to-Amcor stock exchange dated April 30, 2025 in the $100,001-$250,000 band. The official row is 465 days older than its filing date and is absent from the ticker-oriented production feed because it is an exchange, not a standard buy or sale.
Interpretation limits
The records do not by themselves establish motive, who directed a household trade, inside information, causation, current holdings, or future performance.
The official Senate record contains one spouse-owned exchange
The Senate eFD detail page identifies the record as a Periodic Transaction Report for Ron L. Wyden. It says the report was filed on August 8, 2026 at 8:05 p.m. and contains one transaction: zero self-owned rows, zero jointly owned rows, one spouse-owned row, and zero dependent-child rows.
The transaction date is April 30, 2025. The ticker field is displayed as '-- AMCR', while the asset description identifies 'BERY - Berry Global Group, Inc. (Exchanged)' and 'Amcor plc Ordinary Shares (Received)'. The transaction type is Exchange and the reported amount is $100,001-$250,000.
The page does not provide a notification date, an exact value, a share count, an exchange ratio for this household, or a reason for the timing of the filing. Those omissions limit what can be reconstructed from the disclosure alone.
- Official report: Senate eFD PTR for Ron Wyden, filed August 8, 2026.
- Owner: spouse; official transaction count: one.
- Reported transaction: BERY exchanged; AMCR shares received.
- Reported amount band: $100,001-$250,000, not an exact value.
The public filing is 465 days after the reported transaction date
Counting calendar days from April 30, 2025 to the August 8, 2026 eFD filing date produces a 465-day transaction-to-filing gap. That is the public delay between the date on the row and the date the report entered the Senate's electronic filing record; it is not a claim that the exchange executed on the filing date.
The Senate Select Committee on Ethics says a Periodic Transaction Report must be filed within 30 days of written notification of a purchase, sale, or exchange over $1,000, and in no case later than 45 days after the transaction. The Committee also says the law does not allow extensions for that deadline.
The missing notification date means the 30-day notification clock cannot be recomputed from this page. It does not change the comparison with the 45-day outer limit: 465 days is 420 days beyond that maximum. The public record establishes a very late filing relative to the transaction date, but not why it happened or whether any penalty was assessed.
This was a merger exchange, not a conventional AMCR purchase
The transaction date matches the corporate closing date for Amcor's all-stock combination with Berry Global. Amcor's April 30, 2025 announcement said the combination became effective that day, and Amcor's SEC Form 8-K says each Berry common share was converted into the right to receive 7.25 Amcor ordinary shares, subject to the merger terms and any cash in lieu of fractional shares.
That context makes the eFD label important. The source does not describe Wyden's household making a discretionary market purchase of AMCR on August 8, 2026; it describes a spouse-owned exchange tied to the Berry-to-Amcor corporate event on April 30, 2025.
The $100,001-$250,000 disclosure band should not be turned into an exact position size or a precise profit. The filing does not say how many Berry shares were held, the number of Amcor shares received, or whether cash was paid for a fractional share.
Why the production trade feed has no Wyden row
A read-only snapshot of the same production Supabase data checked through August 10, 2026 at 14:30:07 UTC had a latest filing_date of August 7, 2026 and a latest observed trade-row created_at of August 10, 2026 at 14:30:07 UTC. It contained zero rows for raw_source senate-ptr-5ecc9b5c-07c1-4ec1-bd4a-2db759eff299.
The official filing has one complete row, so the production count of zero is a parser and data-model coverage result rather than a contradiction of the Senate record. The live trade table currently represents purchase, sale, and partial-sale transaction types; it does not have an exchange type. The eFD row also presents two securities in one exchange description rather than one ordinary ticker row.
AMCR and BERY can still appear in the feed from unrelated filings. Their presence elsewhere does not mean this Wyden exchange was ingested, and the absence of a Wyden row does not mean the filing was not public. For this analysis, the official Senate page controls the one-row count, owner, transaction type, dates, and amount band.
What this disclosure does and does not establish
The source establishes that Wyden's spouse was reported as holding a Berry-to-Amcor exchange dated April 30, 2025, that the report was filed August 8, 2026, and that the amount fell within the $100,001-$250,000 band. It also establishes a 465-day transaction-to-filing interval and a transaction type of Exchange.
It does not establish the exact dollar value, the household's share count, the written-notification date, the reason for the late filing, a Senate Ethics penalty, or any material nonpublic information. A merger conversion can create a reportable exchange without being a directional investment decision, and a late disclosure is not by itself evidence of insider trading or improper influence.
The useful research conclusion is narrower: a large, old, nonstandard Senate PTR became public, and a ticker-first tracker can miss it unless the source document and transaction type are inspected directly.

FAQ
Did Ron Wyden buy AMCR on August 8, 2026?
No. The Senate eFD report filed August 8 records a spouse-owned exchange dated April 30, 2025: Berry Global shares were marked exchanged and Amcor shares received. The source does not describe a conventional AMCR purchase on the filing date.
How much was the Wyden exchange worth?
The filing reports the $100,001-$250,000 disclosure band. It does not disclose an exact value, number of Berry shares, number of Amcor shares, or any cash paid for a fractional share.
Was the filing late?
The report was filed 465 calendar days after its April 30, 2025 transaction date. Senate Ethics guidance sets a 45-day outer limit for PTRs, so the public record is far outside that transaction-date maximum. The page does not show the written-notification date or explain the delay.
Why is there no Wyden row in the live trade feed?
The official record is an exchange with a two-security description, while the ticker-oriented production trade model currently stores purchase, sale, and partial-sale rows. The checked production snapshot had zero rows for the Senate filing's raw source, so the official eFD page controls.
What happened to Berry Global on April 30, 2025?
Amcor completed its all-stock combination with Berry Global that day. Amcor's SEC filing says each Berry common share was converted into the right to receive 7.25 Amcor ordinary shares, subject to the merger terms.
Does the filing show insider trading?
No. It shows a late public disclosure of a spouse-owned corporate exchange and a broad amount band. It does not establish material nonpublic information, intent, an ethics finding, or a criminal violation.
