Context
This filing documents routine insider sales under a 10b5-1 plan, which allows pre-scheduled trades and reduces the informational significance of timing. Sales decrease insider holdings but do not, by themselves, indicate change in company outlook — purchases generally carry more weight as a bullish signal.
