Peetz's selling accelerated in 2025 as MIRM surged on Livmarli's commercial success: $2.2M at $55 in August, $2.5M at $62 in August, and $941K at $103 in February 2026. The exercise-and-sell pattern shows him converting deep-in-the-money options into cash as the stock price rises, a common pattern for biotech CEOs whose companies transition from clinical to commercial stage.
What It Means
The spread between Peetz's exercise prices ($2.94-$19.24) and selling prices ($55-$103) represents the value creation journey of a successful biotech: from pre-approval uncertainty to commercial-stage validation. His $10.4M in career sales came almost entirely in 2025-2026 as Livmarli's launch in cholestatic liver diseases drove MIRM from ~$30 to $100+.
With 160,294 shares remaining (~$16.5M at current prices), Peetz's retained position exceeds his career sales — a positive alignment signal for MIRM investors. The CEO is monetizing some of his paper gains while maintaining a larger bet on the company's pipeline expansion beyond Livmarli. His $314K in career purchases shows he also bought stock at earlier, lower prices.
What to Watch
- Whether Peetz continues selling as MIRM trades above $100
- Livmarli prescription volume trends and payer coverage expansion
- Mirum's pipeline readouts beyond Livmarli for additional indications
- Other MIRM insiders' selling activity at these elevated levels
