Key Details
- Transaction date: May 20, 2026 (Form 4 filed May 22, 2026) — timely (Form 4 is due within two business days).
- Option exercises (code M): 9,600 shares @ $17.12 = $164,352; 75,000 shares @ $17.98 = $1,348,500.
- Open-market sale (code S): 84,600 shares @ $92.60 = $7,833,765.
- Net proceeds (approx.): $7,833,765 − $1,512,852 = ~$6,320,913 (pre-tax, before fees).
- Shares acquired by exercise equal shares sold (84,600), so these exercises were followed by same-day sales.
- Footnote: Options vest in four equal annual installments beginning on the exercise date (F1).
- Shares owned after this transaction are not specified in the provided filing excerpt.
Context
The filing shows exercised options and a contemporaneous sale of the same number of shares, a common pattern known as a cashless exercise followed by an immediate sale — it converts option value to cash rather than increasing long-term shareholdings. Transaction codes: M = option exercise/conversion, S = open-market sale. This summary is factual and does not infer the insider's motives.
