Insights

Director executed option exercise and contemporaneous sale under a 10b5-1 plan.

The reporting person exercised $30.86-strike options to acquire 12,000 shares and sold an equal number at $65.00 on 10/03/2025, which is consistent with structured trading under a pre-established trading plan. Use of a written Rule 10b5-1 plan typically provides an affirmative defense to insider trading claims when properly adopted and documented.

Key dependencies and items to watch include the plan adoption date 03/12/2025, contemporaneous holdings moving from 29,451 to 17,451 shares, and the option expiration on 01/03/2026. Monitor future Form 4s for additional plan-based activity or changes in beneficial ownership.

Transaction reflects option exercise and immediate monetization of shares.

The option exercise converted 12,000 derivative rights into 12,000 common shares at an exercise price of $30.86; the subsequent sale at $65.00 realizes the intrinsic spread per share. The derivative record shows the options were exercisable on 10/03/2025 and are set to expire on 01/03/2026, suggesting near-term option lifecycle activity.

Watch for additional exercises or sales before the 01/03/2026 expiration and for any company disclosures about equity plan grants that could affect dilution or executive compensation reporting.
