Rule 10b5-1 plan financial
"Includes shares sold pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan adopted on January 6, 2026."
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 sale price financial
"The price reported above reflects the weighted average sale price."
restricted stock units (RSUs) financial
"Includes shares to be issued in connection with the vesting of one or more restricted stock units (RSUs)."
Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a type of company promise to give employees shares of stock in the future, usually after certain conditions like working for a set time. They are like a gift promised today that you receive later, which can become valuable if the company's stock price goes up. RSUs matter because they are a way companies reward employees and can be a significant part of compensation.
pecuniary interest financial
"disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares except to the extent of his pecuniary interest"
indirect ownership financial
