Insights
CFO exercised options and sold all acquired shares, a routine liquidity move.
Rafael R. Lizardi, CFO of Texas Instruments, exercised a non-qualified stock option for 40,541 common shares at an exercise price of $169.23. This converted an entirely derivative position into common stock, with the option grant fully exercised and no remaining position from that award.
He then sold 40,541 shares in three open-market transactions at weighted average prices around $273.74, $274.70, and $275.53, with trade ranges from $273.22 to $275.79. This is a classic exercise-and-sell pattern that turns option value into cash rather than increasing long-term exposure.
After these trades, he still directly owns 85,485 shares and indirectly holds 33,994 shares through a SLAT, indicating a substantial remaining equity stake. The filing does not reference any Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, so the timing appears discretionary based on the information provided.
