Key Details

• Transaction dates & prices:
  • 2025-09-03: 550 shares @ $16.50 = $9,075 (open-market or private purchase)
  • 2025-09-03: 600 shares @ $16.50 = $9,900 (open-market or private purchase)
  • 2025-12-01: 300 shares @ $16.00 = $4,800 (open-market or private purchase)
• Total shares bought: 1,450; total reported value: $23,775.
• Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the data provided on this summary filing.
• Footnote: The reporting person says these transactions were executed pursuant to an instruction given in late June 2025 that was inadvertently not cancelled before execution.
• Timeliness: The Form 4 was filed on 2026-02-19 for transactions in Sept–Dec 2025, so the filing was late; the footnote explains the administrative error but late filings reduce reporting timeliness for investors.

Context These are straightforward purchases (no option exercises, awards, or gifts). Purchases by insiders are often considered more informative than sales because they represent personal capital deployed into the company, but the filing provides no explanation beyond the footnote error; avoid inferring motive.
