Chevron CLO Pate Hewitt Exercises Options, Sells Shares
What Happened
- Pate R. Hewitt, Chief Legal Officer of Chevron (CVX), exercised options for 47,200 shares and then sold those 47,200 shares on March 6, 2026. The exercise cost was $113.01 per share (total $5,334,072). The shares were sold at $192.12 per share for total proceeds of $9,068,064 — implying gross proceeds minus exercise cost of about $3,733,992 before taxes/fees.
- The transactions were sales (dispositions) following an option exercise, so this was a liquidity event rather than a purchase (not a direct bullish purchase signal).

Context
- This was an option exercise followed by an immediate or same‑day sale (a common cashless or sell-to-cover pattern). The sale was executed under a 10b5-1 plan, meaning it was prearranged rather than an ad hoc sale. Such transactions are often routine liquidity actions and do not necessarily indicate a change in the insider’s view of the company.
