Key Details
- Transaction date: August 3, 2026; Form 4 filed August 5, 2026 (appears timely — within the usual two-business-day reporting window).
- Prices: reported as weighted averages. Per footnotes the trades were executed across price ranges:
- $24.05–$24.95 (F2/F5) and $25.09–$25.23 (F4) depending on the block.
- Shares owned after the transaction: not specified in the provided filing excerpt.
- Notable footnotes:
- F1: Sales were effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan established March 6, 2026.
- F3: Some securities sold are restricted stock units (RSUs) that vest into Class A common stock.
- F6–F8: Certain reported shares are held by the reporting person’s spouse or family trusts (Flat Tops Ventures, Flat Tops 2024 Trust, Swanson 2021 Irrevocable Trust).
- The reporting person offers to provide breakdowns of the number of shares sold at each separate price upon request (per F2/F4/F5).
Context
- These transactions were run under a pre-established 10b5-1 plan (F1), which typically allows insiders to sell shares according to a schedule regardless of subsequent company news.
- Several shares involved derive from RSUs and family-held entities — some sales may reflect vesting/tax-management or trust-related transfers rather than discretionary market-timing.
