Context
- These transactions resulted from the offered tender and subsequent merger (Purchaser merged into Nuvalent and the company became a wholly owned subsidiary of GSK). Many entries are “Disposition to the issuer” (D) or change-of-control (U) and reflect cancellation/conversion of equity awards into the merger cash payment — not open-market selling decisions. For retail investors, this is a liquidation of insider equity tied to a deal payout rather than a routine market trade.
