Dana Zimmer, President of Distribution & Strategy at Nexstar Media Group (NASDAQ:NXST), recently sold shares worth $159,011. The transaction, dated May 27, 2025, involved the sale of 916 shares at an average price of $173.593 per share. This sale was conducted to cover tax withholding obligations related to the settlement of restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance stock units (PSUs) that vested earlier in May. The company maintains strong financial health with a P/E ratio of 8.6 and an attractive dividend yield of 4.25%.

In addition to the sale, Zimmer acquired 2,000 shares of common stock through the conversion of RSUs and PSUs on May 23, 2025. These acquisitions did not involve any cash transactions, as the RSUs and PSUs were awarded previously and vested according to pre-established conditions.
