Mahon, EVP & General Counsel of United Therapeutics (UTHR), exercised 8,300 stock options on 2026-07-16 at a strike price of $146.03 (cost $1,212,049) and sold the 8,300 resulting shares the same day in multiple open-market trades under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 plan.

Context

  • Transaction codes: M = option exercise/conversion, S = open-market sale. Here the exercised options were converted into shares and those shares were immediately sold under the 10b5-1 plan (routine liquidity event).
  • For retail investors: purchases tend to be more informative about insider sentiment; this filing documents a pre-planned exercise-and-sale, which is common for executives exercising compensation-related options.
