What Happened

Key Details

  • Transaction date and price: 2026-01-13 at $67.16 per share.
  • Shares acquired: 2.47; total value ≈ $166.
  • Footnote: F1 = Dividend Reinvestment (purchase was via the DRIP).
  • Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided filing.
  • Filing timeliness: Form filed on 2026-02-04 (22 days after the transaction); this is later than the typical 2-business-day Form 4 deadline.

Context
Dividend reinvestments are routine, automatic transactions that convert cash dividends into additional shares and generally do not signal a deliberate new investment decision by the insider. The purchase is small in dollar terms and should be viewed as a routine dividend-driven acquisition rather than a strong bullish indicator.
