[Form 4] CryoPort, Inc. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Cryoport (CYRX) Form 4 filing: On 07/24/2025 President & CEO Jerrell Shelton exercised 25,000 stock options at a $5 strike price (transaction code M) and retained every share. His direct common-stock holdings rose to 1,012,419 shares. The option grant, issued in 2015, vested monthly over four years; 50,000 options remain outstanding after the exercise. No shares were sold, representing an estimated $125,000 cash outlay and a modest increase in insider ownership. The move appears to be routine compensation-related activity rather than a strategic shift, yet the additional personal investment can be viewed as a sign of management confidence.

Positive

• CEO Jerrell Shelton increased his direct ownership by 25,000 shares, indicating continued confidence in CYRX.

Negative

• None.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: Routine option exercise; modest buy signals steady insider confidence, limited market impact.

The CEO converted 25 k in-the-money options at $5 and kept the resulting shares, lifting his direct stake to approximately one million. Because there was no simultaneous sale, the filing reflects a net purchase of roughly $125 k. The share count involved is small relative to Cryoport’s float and average volume, so price impact should be minimal. Investors may read the move as incremental alignment of management and shareholder interests, but it does not alter earnings outlook or capital structure.
