Were the Biodesix (BDSX) CEO’s share sales discretionary or for taxes?

The filing states the 1,490 shares were sold automatically by the issuer’s broker to cover taxes due upon the vesting of restricted stock units. This indicates a tax-withholding related sale rather than a discretionary portfolio decision.

Did any reverse stock split affect the Biodesix (BDSX) share numbers reported?

Yes. A footnote states the reported share numbers have been adjusted for a one-for-twenty reverse stock split that became effective on September 15, 2025, ensuring the holdings and transaction amounts reflect the post-split share count.
