Murphy Ronan Martin 4

What Happened

• Murphy Ronan Martin, a director of ICON PLC (ICLR), reported a paired derivative transaction on 2026-05-14: a disposition to the issuer (D) of 5,005 derivative shares and a simultaneous grant/other acquisition (A) of 5,005 derivative shares. No price or dollar value is reported (listed as N/A).
• This filing reflects an administrative change to outstanding option rights (see footnote F1): the expiration date of the stock options was extended for a 30 trading-day period under the Company Share Trading Policy. The affected awards were fully vested (footnote F2). This was not an open-market sale or purchase of common stock.

Context

• For retail investors: this was an administrative modification of option/derivative rights (extension of expiration), not a market buy or sale of common stock, so it does not directly signal insider buying or selling. Because the awards are fully vested and the extension is short-term, the filing mainly documents paperwork around option timing rather than a change in economic exposure or immediate cash proceeds.
