Key Details

  • Transaction date and price: 2026-07-02 — 4.136 shares at $62.12 each (≈ $257 total).
  • Filing date / timeliness: Form 4 filed on 2026-07-07; reported as late (transactionTimeliness = 'L').

Context
Dividend reinvestment purchases are common and typically small; they reflect the reinvestment of dividends into additional shares rather than an active open-market buy indicating a new investment decision. The late filing is procedural — one late Form 4 is usually not conclusive of misconduct but consistent or large late filings can draw regulatory attention.
