Key Details
- Transaction dates and prices:
- Feb 13, 2026 — open‑market sale of 12,000 shares, weighted‑average $7.31 (prices ranged $7.25–$7.41); proceeds $87,689. (Footnote: weighted‑avg; breakdown available on request.)
- Feb 15, 2026 — conversion/exercise of 5,210, 5,303 and 4,804 RSU/derivative shares at $0.00 (typical for RSU vesting/conversion).
- Net effect from reported entries: 15,317 shares converted/issued from RSUs and 12,000 shares sold — a net increase of 3,317 shares from the listed transactions (based on the reported numbers).
- Post‑transaction total holdings: the filing excerpt provided does not state the insider’s total shares owned after these transactions.
- Notable footnotes:
- Sales were effected under a Rule 10b5‑1 trading plan primarily to cover taxes resulting from RSU vesting (F1).
- One share was issued upon vesting of each RSU (F3); the RSUs originate from grants in 2022, 2023 and 2024 with multi‑year vesting schedules (F4–F9).
- Timeliness: Form filed Feb 17, 2026 for transactions through Feb 15, 2026 — the filing appears timely (within required Form 4 reporting window).
Context
- The M (exercise/conversion) entries reflect RSU vesting/conversion to common shares rather than a cash purchase; the $0.00 per‑share amount is consistent with RSU settlement.
- The Feb 13 sale was carried out under a preexisting 10b5‑1 plan and is described as primarily to cover tax obligations from the RSU vesting—such sales are routine and not necessarily a signal of changed insider sentiment.
