Context
- These were institutional market‑making transactions by Goldman Sachs, not an insider executive trade; such activity is routine market liquidity provision and does not necessarily signal management sentiment.
- The filing notes that on Feb 5, 2026 the Reporting Persons ceased to be a greater‑than‑10% beneficial owner of BACQ.
- Retail investors should treat market‑maker buys/sells differently from executive purchases (which can be stronger signals); for full details and exact post‑trade holdings, review the original Form 4 and Exhibit 99.1.
