• Post-transaction holdings: not specified in this Form 4 (report shows the acquisition but does not state total shares held after the award).
• Footnotes: F1 and F2 note small, separate acquisitions (.122 and .097 shares) under the issuer’s 401(k) Plan (exempt under Rule 16b-3(c)) based on a plan statement dated 3/31/2026.

Context This was an award/grant of shares (code A), meaning the company issued shares to the insider (often restricted or performance-based), not a market purchase or option exercise. The dollar value is modest (~$1.1K), so while it’s an insider acquisition, it’s small in absolute terms and should be weighed accordingly by retail investors.
