Context

• This filing is from a 10% owner/trust (institutional/major shareholder), not a company officer. Distributions to beneficiaries are internal trust actions and do not necessarily signal management sentiment about the stock. Large sales by major shareholders can be routine portfolio or estate planning activity; the Form 4 notes weighted-average pricing and offers to provide trade-level details on request.
