Biodesix (BDSX) CEO Scott Hutton Exercises RSUs, Sells 3,559 Shares

What Happened

  • Scott Hutton, President & CEO and a director of Biodesix, reported the conversion/exercise of 9,998 restricted stock units (RSUs) into common stock (reported 2026-02-09). As part of the vesting event, portions of the shares were withheld/disposed to satisfy tax withholding (two derivative disposals reported at $0). Separately, 3,559 shares were sold (reported 2026-02-10) at a weighted average price of $10.08 for total proceeds of $35,889. These transactions reflect routine RSU vesting and tax-related share withholding/sales rather than an open-market purchase.

Context

  • These entries are derivative/RSU activity: RSUs vested and converted to shares, and some shares were withheld or sold to satisfy tax obligations (a form of cashless/net settlement). Such tax-withholding sales are routine and do not necessarily indicate a change in the insider’s view of the company.
