Ryder (R) CEO Robert E. Sanchez Exercises Options, Sells Shares

What Happened

Key Details

  • Transaction date: February 24, 2026; Form 4 filed February 26, 2026 (filed within the standard two-business-day window).
  • Option exercise: 104,390 shares acquired at $76.49 per share (total cost $7,984,791).
  • Withholding to cover taxes (F): 62,611 shares disposed at a weighted average of $224.90 (value $14,081,214).
  • Open-market sales (S): 40,841 shares @ $223.28 (weighted average; value $9,118,978); 676 shares @ $223.86 (value $151,329); 262 shares @ $225.12 (value $58,981). Total open-market sale proceeds ≈ $9,329,288.
  • Total shares disposed the same day: 104,390 (equal to the shares exercised); total proceeds ≈ $23.41M.
  • Footnotes: F1–F3 note the sale price ranges for the weighted averages (F1: $222.78–$223.76; F2: $223.81–$224.07; F3: $225.10–$225.13). F4 notes the options vested in 2018–2020 (i.e., these were vested options).
  • Shares owned after the transaction: not specified in the provided filing.

Context

  • This was a cashless-style outcome common with option exercises: options were exercised and the resulting shares were used partly to satisfy tax withholding and partly sold in the open market. Transaction codes: M = option exercise/conversion, F = shares withheld for tax liability, S = open-market sale.
  • These transactions are routine for executives exercising vested options and do not, by themselves, indicate a change in company outlook. Purchases are typically more informative about bullish insider sentiment; this filing reflects an exercise followed by sales to cover taxes and realize proceeds.
