What Happened
Mac Armstrong, CEO and Chairman of Palomar Holdings (PLMR), sold a total of 3,500 shares in open-market transactions on March 23, 2026, generating roughly $422,028 in proceeds. The sale was executed in four lots: 400 shares at a weighted average $118.33 ($47,334), 500 shares at $119.47 ($59,734), 1,622 shares at $120.78 ($195,898), and 978 shares at $121.74 ($119,062).

Context
These were direct open-market sales by Palomar’s CEO/Chairman (no option exercises, gifts, or derivative transactions reported). For retail investors, purchases by insiders often attract more attention as potential bullish signals; routine sales can reflect diversification, tax planning, or liquidity needs. If you need the exact per-trade price breakdown or the total post-sale holdings, the filer or the SEC filing can be requested for full details.
