Context

• Keene is listed as a 10% owner — a major shareholder rather than necessarily an executive. Purchases by significant owners can indicate a commitment of capital, but they may reflect a range of motives (portfolio rebalancing, tax planning, etc.). This summary is factual and does not infer Keene’s motive.
