Context

• These sales were made under a pre‑arranged 10b5‑1 plan, which typically schedules trades in advance and is intended to limit insider timing decisions; that context is important when interpreting insider sales. Sales are common for executives for diversification or tax/liquidity reasons and do not by themselves indicate company performance.
