10b5-1 plan adoption date November 11, 2025 Rule 10b5-1 trading plan for ForDyne B.V.
Rule 10b5-1 trading plan regulatory
"This transaction was made pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted by ForDyne B.V."
A Rule 10b5-1 trading plan is a pre-arranged schedule that allows company insiders to buy or sell stock at specific times, even if they have inside information. It helps prevent accusations of unfair trading by making these transactions look planned and transparent, rather than sneaky or illegal.
weighted average price financial
"The price reported in Column 4 is a weighted average price."
Weighted average price is the average price of a security where each trade or component is counted according to its size, so bigger trades pull the average more than smaller ones. Think of it like calculating the average cost of a grocery haul where items you bought more of have greater influence on the final per-item cost. Investors use it to understand the true average price paid or received, judge execution quality, and compare trading performance against market movement.
voting and dispositive power financial
"Forbion IV Management B.V. may be deemed to have voting and dispositive power over 2,781,155 of the shares"
beneficial ownership financial
"The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein."
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.
pecuniary interest financial
"The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein."
