• Sales by corporate officers can be for many personal reasons (taxes, diversification, liquidity) and do not necessarily reflect the officer’s view of the company. Childress is an officer (SVP/Chief Commercial Officer) and is not identified here as a 10% owner. For retail investors, purchases tend to be more informative about insider conviction; this filing documents a routine insider sale.
