Scripps Elizabeth 4

What Happened

On 2026-03-04 she bought 2,099 shares at $4.17 each ($8,757) and on 2026-03-05 she bought 2,324 shares at $4.43 each ($10,286), for a total of 4,423 shares purchased for roughly $19,043.

• Footnotes: F1 and F2 in the filing state that certain prices elsewhere in the Form 4 are weighted averages covering multiple sale transactions at price ranges $3.845–$4.315 and $4.15–$4.49; the reporting person will provide per-price breakdowns on request.

Context

• The reporter is a 10%+ owner via a family agreement (collective voting/convertible shares), not necessarily a company executive — that distinction matters because such holders are institutional/family owners rather than inside management.
• These were straightforward open-market purchases (transaction code P). No options exercises, gifts, or tax-withholding events are reported in this excerpt.
