How to read the result

A Rule 10b5-1 plan lets insiders trade on a pre-committed schedule without material non-public information. The 2023 amendments added a 90-day cooling-off period (120 days for officers and directors) between adoption and the first permitted trade.

This tool is educational. It uses 2025 single-filer federal brackets, a simplified state-tax model, and does not substitute for a CPA review of your specific facts. For a second set of eyes on a meaningful event, match with a fiduciary advisor who routinely works with equity compensation.
