- Footnotes of note:
- F1/F3: The reported prices are weighted averages; purchases occurred at small price ranges and the filer will provide per-transaction price breakdown on request.
- F2: The shares are directly held by SoftVest, LP. SoftVest GP I, LLC is the GP and Eric L. Oliver is its managing member; he may be deemed to beneficially own the SoftVest, LP holdings but disclaims beneficial ownership except for his pecuniary interest.
Context
- Because Mr. Oliver is reported as a 10% owner via an investment vehicle (SoftVest, LP) rather than as an executive, these purchases reflect institutional/large-owner buying rather than typical officer/director trading.
- Purchases by insiders or large holders can be a positive data point for retail investors, but they do not by themselves prove future performance; the filing is factual and does not state the buyer’s motivation.
