Context

• This was a direct purchase, not an option exercise, award, or gift. Small to modest insider purchases like this can indicate personal conviction but do not on their own prove a change in company prospects. No evidence here that the filing was late or that the insider is a 10% owner; the filing identifies Kumar as a corporate officer (CEO).
