Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-08-10; Form 4 filed: 2026-08-11 (timely filing).
• Trade type: Open market sale (Code S).
• Price and amount: 2,000 shares at $1,185.01 per share; proceeds $2,370,020.

Context A 10b5-1 plan is a pre-arranged trading program that allows insiders to sell shares on a schedule and can reduce the likelihood that trades were based on material nonpublic information. Because this was a planned sale, it should be viewed as a routine disposition rather than a direct signal of insider confidence.
