Context
Purchases by directors are generally considered a direct signal of personal investment, though they do not guarantee future company performance. The footnotes indicate the reported prices are weighted averages of multiple executions and that some or all shares are held in trusts benefiting family members, which limits Cornog’s claimed beneficial ownership to his pecuniary interest.
