What Happened
Nancy Quan, Executive Vice President of The Coca‑Cola Company, exercised 31,625 stock options (exercise price $45.44) on May 15, 2026, paying roughly $1,436,882 to acquire the shares, and then sold those 31,625 shares in the open market for gross proceeds of about $2,559,519 (weighted average sale price $80.93). The filing also reports a related derivative disposition recorded at $0 (administrative entry).

Key Details

  • Transaction dates: May 15, 2026 (exercise and sale). Filing date: May 19, 2026 (appears timely under the two‑business‑day Form 4 rule).

  • Sale price / proceeds: weighted average $80.93 per share (range $80.91–$80.97 per footnote F1); total proceeds ≈ $2,559,519.
  • Shares involved: 31,625 shares exercised and 31,625 shares sold.

  • Notable footnotes: F1 explains the weighted average sale price and price range; F6 notes the options were granted Feb 21, 2019 under the 2014 Equity Plan with standard four‑year vesting; other footnotes reference 401(k) credits and how hypothetical shares are counted.

Context
This was an exercise of previously granted options followed by an immediate open‑market sale (a cashless or same‑day sell pattern), which is common for executives monetizing vested option grants. The filing includes routine administrative derivative reporting and vesting/grant details; it does not, by itself, indicate the insider’s view of the company.
