Key Details

• Transaction dates and prices:
  • 2026-03-06: 5,742 shares @ $4.64 — $26,661
  • 2026-03-09: 6,852 shares @ $4.43 — $30,377
• Total purchased: 12,594 shares for ≈ $57,038.
• Shares owned after transaction: the Form 4 does not list a post-transaction share count; the filing notes Granado may be deemed to beneficially own more than 10% of the Class A shares under the Scripps Family Agreement.
• Notable footnotes: the filing includes footnotes (F1, F2) describing weighted-average prices and multiple sale-price ranges for other transactions and offers to provide detailed per-price breakdowns on request.
• Timeliness: Filing date 2026-03-10. Given the trade dates (Mar 6 and Mar 9), the Form 4 was filed within the required business-day window and is not marked late.
• Related filings: Reporting person filed a Schedule 13D (last amended March 9, 2026) reflecting the Scripps Family Agreement and collective voting/beneficial ownership.

Context

• Granado is reported as a >10% owner through a family agreement (institutional/family-level stake) rather than a corporate officer or director trade; such purchases can reflect small incremental increases by a large shareholder but should be interpreted as ownership activity by a significant holder, not routine employee insider trading.
• Purchase size here (~$57k) is modest relative to a 10% position; factual reporting only—no inference about motives is made.
