Context
Sales under a 10b5‑1 plan are prearranged and scheduled in advance, which is common for insiders managing diversification or liquidity needs; they do not necessarily reflect the insider’s view of the company. This report documents straight sales (transaction code S), not option exercises, gifts, or grants.
