• Transaction code: P = Purchase (open market or private purchase as reported).
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the excerpt provided.
• Footnote: The shares are owned directly by certain series of the Lincoln Variable Insurance Products Trust. Lincoln Financial Investments Corp is the investment adviser to those series and "may be deemed" to beneficially own the reported shares (per filer footnote).
• Filing timeliness: The Form 4 was filed on 2026-02-27 covering transactions in Oct–Dec 2025, which appears late relative to the typical Form 4 two-business‑day filing requirement; late filings can reduce timeliness of disclosure for investors.

Context

• This is institutional/advisory activity (a 10% owner and registered investment adviser acting for Trust series), not an individual executive trade. Institutional purchases often reflect portfolio allocation decisions rather than management’s private view of the company.
• No option exercises, awards, or gifts were reported — only purchases (code P).
