Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR: Director purchase of 134 shares at $14 modestly increases direct ownership; transaction appears immaterial to valuation.

The filing shows Lewis C. Addison, a director, acquired 134 shares on 08/13/2025 at $14, bringing his direct holdings to 19,433 shares. The Form 4 was signed by a POA on 08/14/2025 and records transaction code "P." Given the size of the purchase relative to total reported holdings, this is a small insider purchase and likely has limited market impact.
