The filing also reports a Feb 3, 2026 grant/award of 45,131 shares (derivative/option) that vests on Feb 3, 2027.

Key Details

  • Conversions: Series B and Series C preferred automatically converted to common on a 10.067-for-1 basis (footnotes F1, F3); conversion entries show acquisition of 3,578,873 common shares and corresponding disposition of the preferred/derivative instruments.

Context

  • The large cash purchases at $17/share signal a material insider buy (total ≈ $18.3M). The preferred conversions were automatic corporate actions tied to the company’s IPO (conversion ratio 10.067-for-1 immediately prior to IPO closing), not separate market trades.
  • As a reported 10% owner and board member, these transactions reflect both institutional/fund-related holdings and direct purchases by or for the reporting person; they should be interpreted as ownership changes rather than routine executive salary-related activity.
