Bozic Carmen Sell
EVP and CMO
6,988 shares
$3,144,600
@ $450.00
Significance 4/10

EVP/CMO Bozic Carmen sold 6,988 shares of VRTX at $450.00; scheduled 10b5-1 plan, strong track record (66.67% well-timed rate).

Carmen Bozic, EVP and CMO, disposed of 6,988 shares at $450.00 totaling $3,144,600.00 under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan, meaning this was scheduled execution rather than discretionary conviction. While the sale reduces her holdings from a reported post-transaction level of 26,088 shares, her track record on prior sells shows a 66.67% well-timed rate with an avg 90d return of -1.2%, suggesting her dispositions have historically preceded modest declines. The stock is currently -11.3% from its 52-week high of $507.92 and down -8.4% over 90 days, indicating recent weakness that aligns with her historical patterns. Given the structured nature of the plan and the moderate position retention (26,088 shares remaining), this transaction reflects programmatic portfolio management rather than a bearish strategic signal, though the well-timed historical pattern warrants monitoring.
