Context A 10b5-1 plan means the trades were prearranged under a written plan, which is commonly used by insiders to sell shares on a set schedule and can reduce concerns about trading on inside information. Sales by directors are frequently for diversification or liquidity and do not, by themselves, indicate company performance.
