Maxim Shishin, who serves as Chief Information Officer of CorVel Corporation (NASDAQ: CRVL), completed a sale of company common stock and an option exercise on March 16, 2026, according to a Form 4 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The filing shows Shishin sold 2,400 shares of CorVel at $54.0016 per share, generating proceeds of $129,603. On that same date he exercised stock options to purchase 2,400 shares at an exercise price of $39.827 per share, for a total exercise value of $95,584. After those transactions were recorded, the filing indicates Shishin directly owns 7,050 shares of CorVel common stock.
Market context included in the disclosure notes that CorVel's share price has declined 49% over the past year. Separately, InvestingPro commentary cited in the filing suggests the company appears undervalued at current levels based on InvestingPro's Fair Value analysis, while also pointing out that CorVel is trading at a P/E ratio of 27 relative to near-term earnings growth.
CorVel's most recent corporate update referenced in public materials reported third-quarter 2026 results showing stable growth in both revenue and earnings. Despite the reported top- and bottom-line growth, the company’s stock experienced a pronounced negative move in premarket trading and ultimately dropped 15.64% to close at $69.75, according to the available data. The filing and market performance together have drawn attention from investors monitoring insider activity and company fundamentals.
The Form 4 filing is the official record for the insider transactions, registering both the sale and the option exercise on the same calendar day. Additional context cited in the filing points investors to InvestingPro research, including a Pro Research Report covering CRVL and more than 1,400 other U.S. equities for those seeking further analysis.
Investors and market watchers continue to observe CorVel's share performance, its valuation metrics as reported by InvestingPro, and the company's recent quarterly financial results. The combination of insider transactions, a notable one-year share price decline, and a sharp intraday move after the quarterly report form the core factual elements disclosed in the filing and related market commentary.
