Rule 10b5-1 plan regulatory
"Date of Rule 10b5-1 plan adoption: 11/21/2025"
A Rule 10b5-1 plan is a prearranged, written schedule that lets corporate insiders buy or sell company stock at set times or amounts, even if they later learn material nonpublic information. Think of it like setting an automatic thermostat for trades: it creates a clear record that trades were planned in advance, reducing the risk of insider-trading accusations and helping investors trust that insider transactions are routine rather than based on secret information.
weighted-average price financial
"The reported price in column 4 is a weighted-average price."
Weighted-average price is the average of multiple prices where each price is counted according to its size or importance—larger trades carry more weight than smaller ones, like averaging course grades by credit hours. It matters to investors because it gives a more realistic picture of the true price paid or received, helping assess trade execution, compare performance, calculate cost basis, and value positions more accurately than a simple average.
indirect financial
"Represents securities held by JEK Trust ... of which Mr. Kao is the trustee."
trustee financial
"JEK Trust, dated February 8, 2021, of which Mr. Kao is the trustee."
A trustee is a person or institution legally appointed to hold and manage assets or enforce an agreement on behalf of other people (beneficiaries). Think of a trustee as a neutral referee or custodian who must act in the beneficiaries’ best interests, follow the trust or contract rules, and handle distributions, recordkeeping and enforcement. Investors care because a trustworthy trustee protects their rights, ensures promised payments or remedies are delivered, and can influence recoveries if things go wrong.
