Key Details

  • Transaction dates: March 10, 2026 (reported on Form 4 filed March 12, 2026) — filing appears timely.
  • Exercise (code M): 10,770 shares exercised at $18.90; total cost reported $203,553.
  • Sale (code S): 5,907 shares sold at a weighted-average price of $96.37; proceeds ~$569,266. (Footnote: sale prices ranged from $96.35 to $96.42.)
  • Derivative disposition: 10,770 shares shown disposed at $0 in connection with the exercise (reflects conversion of the option).
  • Shares owned after transaction: not disclosed in the provided filing excerpt.
  • Footnote on award: the option referenced is/was exercisable in three equal annual installments commencing May 13, 2017 (per filing footnote).

Context

  • This is essentially an option exercise followed by a partial sale (cashless-style outcome): Gansberg acquired shares by exercising options and sold a portion the same day. The $0 derivative entry reflects conversion of the option into shares rather than a separate cash sale of the derivative itself.
  • Such exercises plus immediate partial sales are common for covering exercise costs, taxes, or rebalancing; the transactions are factual and do not by themselves indicate the insider’s future view of the stock.
