- These were pre-arranged, open-market sales under a 10b5‑1 plan, which is commonly used by insiders to sell shares according to a predetermined schedule and reduces the extent to which the trades are taken as a real‑time signal of insider sentiment. Sales (disposals) are generally treated as routine; purchases typically provide stronger signals of insider bullishness.
