Insights

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR: Insider exercised vested options and sold the resulting shares, reducing direct holdings to 8,024 shares.

The filing documents a routine option exercise from a 2019 grant that vested on schedule and an immediate sale of the same number of shares. This is consistent with scheduled vesting and potential personal liquidity needs; the filing does not state any 10b5‑1 plan. The report provides clear numbers: 9,255 options exercised at $23.72, sale at $37.50, and post‑trade ownership of 8,024 shares.

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: Transaction is a non‑exceptional insider exercise and sale with disclosed prices and resulting share count.

From a market perspective the filing shows realized proceeds from an exercise and sale (exercise price $23.72; sale price $37.50 for 9,255 shares). The filing contains no statement of a trading plan or proceeds use, and no derivative holdings remain from this option grant. The reported amounts are explicit and allow precise calculation of gross proceeds but no further financial context is provided.
