Schedule 13Gregulatory
"This statement is filed by: Owl Creek Asset Management, L.P.; the filing of this statement should not be construed as an admission"
A Schedule 13G is a formal document that investors file with the government when they acquire a large ownership stake in a company, usually for investment purposes rather than control. It helps keep the public informed about who owns significant parts of a company's shares, which can influence how the company is managed and how investors make decisions. Filing this schedule is important for transparency and understanding the ownership landscape of publicly traded companies.
beneficial ownershipfinancial
"Amount beneficially owned: The information required by Item 4(a) is set forth in Row 9 of the cover page"
Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.

Form S-1regulatory
"based upon an aggregate of 5,722,398 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of March 31, 2026, as reported in the Issuer's Registration Statement on Form S-1"
A Form S-1 is the registration filing a company submits to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission when it plans to offer stock to the public, most commonly for an initial public offering. Think of it as the company’s full disclosure packet or blueprint: it contains audited financials, business description, management background, risk factors and details of the offering, giving investors the information needed to judge the company’s financial health and potential risks before buying shares.
