Context

These are plan-based share equivalents (a retirement/benefit plan allocation), not a market trade — common in payroll or 401(k) activity and generally does not signal active timing of stock purchases or sales by the insider.
For retail investors, plan contributions and employer allocations increase insider exposure to company stock but are typically part of compensation/savings programs rather than an explicit bullish/bearish market bet.

The number of shares attributed to the reporting person and expressed as share equivalents is based on information furnished by the 401(k) plan administrator as of February 24, 2026.
