Context This was a straightforward open-market purchase, not an option exercise, award, or gift. The filing does not indicate a 10b5-1 plan or other special arrangement. Purchases by directors show personal investment in the company but do not, by themselves, prove future company performance; retail investors should consider this alongside other company and market information.
