Corporate governance analyst

Routine insider sale; holdings and option labels clarified.

A company director disclosed selling 5,500 NHC shares at $133. Post-sale direct ownership stands at 73,095 shares, indicating continued equity exposure. Such Form 4 disclosures document insider trading activity and updated holdings.

The report itemizes several outstanding option grants of 7,500 shares each with specified strike prices and maturities.
