TFS Financial CFO Meredith S. Weil Exercises Options, Sells Shares
What Happened
- Meredith S. Weil, Chief Financial Officer of TFS Financial Corporation (TFSL), exercised 52,793 stock options on 2026-09-03. The exercise generated 52,793 common shares.
- Of those shares, 46,932 were delivered back to the issuer to cover the options' exercise price and applicable withholding taxes (value shown at $17.50/share, ~$821,310). An additional 5,861 shares were sold in the open market at $17.53/share, producing proceeds of approximately $102,743.
- The exercise reflected an option strike of $14.74 per share (52,793 shares × $14.74 = $778,169 reported on exercise). This pattern (exercising and surrendering shares to cover costs/taxes, plus selling a small number of shares) is a common cashless exercise / sell-to-cover transaction rather than a straight purchase.

Context
- This was primarily an option exercise with a sell-to-cover (cashless) component: options were converted into shares, many of which were surrendered to cover costs and taxes, and a smaller block was sold on the open market.
- Transactions coded: M = option exercise/conversion, F = delivery of shares to pay exercise price/taxes, S = open-market sale.
- Such sell-to-cover exercises are routine for option vesting/exercise events and do not by themselves indicate a change in insider sentiment.
