The filings show discrete sales at prices ranging from $28.85 to $42.61, and the same filings show a separate award of 14,000 common shares at $0 following the vesting of performance restricted stock units tied to FDA approval of FILSPARI (sparsentan) for focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). After these moves, Cline directly holds 116,899 shares of Travere Therapeutics. The activity occurred as the stock traded near its 52-week high, and follows a wave of analyst coverage adjustments after full FDA approval for Filspari.
