Context
These were open-market sales (routine dispositions) rather than purchases or option exercises. Sales by executives are common for liquidity, diversification, or tax planning; they are factual disclosures and do not, by themselves, indicate company performance. For complete ownership and timing context, review the full SEC Form 4 (accession 0001437749-26-008379).
