Insights

TL;DR: Exercise and sale of 2,250 CRM shares is routine and immaterial given Benioff鈥檚 substantial direct and indirect holdings.

The Form 4 documents a same-day exercise and sale: 2,250 options exercised at $161.50 and 2,250 shares sold across multiple price tranches between $237.2777 and $252.5229 under a 10b5-1 plan. After the trades Benioff retains 11,911,571 direct shares and indirect holdings of 10,107,000 (107,000 trust + 10,000,000 LLC), plus 135,122 derivative securities. From a capital-structure perspective this transaction does not materially change his ownership percentage or the company鈥檚 outstanding shares.

TL;DR: The disclosure follows standard governance practice; use of a 10b5-1 plan and tranche-level pricing increases transparency.

The filing explicitly states the trades were effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted January 9, 2025, and provides tranche-level weighted-average prices and price ranges for the sales. That level of detail supports compliance and reduces potential insider-trading ambiguity. The transaction is fully reported on Form 4 with indirect holdings and option balances disclosed, meeting Form 4 transparency expectations.
