Insights

TL;DR Large block sales by the Icahn group reduced their holdings to zero, a materially disclosable change that removes their >5% reporting status.

The filing documents two sizable disposals totaling 34,721,118 shares sold at $9.00 per share. From a market-disclosure perspective this is material: it changes the ownership register and eliminates the group's reporting obligations under Rule 13d-1(a). The disclosure is concise and factual; it does not state reasons for the sales or any related agreements. For investors, the key facts are the number of shares, the per-share price, and the resulting 0 share beneficial ownership.

TL;DR The departure of an activist-sized holder is a material governance event, primarily factual in this filing.

This amendment confirms the reporting persons no longer hold shares above the 5% threshold following the August 14, 2025 sales. The filing is limited to ownership and sale mechanics; it contains no commentary on board, strategic or governance implications. From a governance standpoint, removal of an activist shareholder could change engagement dynamics, but the filing offers no direct evidence of follow-on actions or agreements.






If the filing person has previously filed a statement on Schedule 13G to report the acquisition that is the subject of this Schedule 13D, and is filing this schedule because of §§ 240.13d-1(e), 240.13d-1(f) or 240.13d-1(g), check the following box.

The information required on the remainder of this cover page shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Act") or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section of the Act but shall be subject to all other provisions of the Act (however, see the Notes).
