- Sales: 4,291 shares @ $79.50 = $341,135.
- Option exercise: 1,226 shares @ $40.00 = $49,040 (code M = exercise/conversion of derivative).

Context
- The sequence—options exercised and shares sold the same day—is commonly used to cover exercise costs and taxes (cashless exercise or concurrent sale), but the filing does not specify the mechanics or reason for the $0 derivative disposition.
- This filing reports an executive sale rather than a purchase; sales are often routine and do not by themselves indicate the insider’s view of long-term value.
