Insights

Group holds a meaningful 7.6% stake via coordinated accounts.

The group structure consolidates ownership across an investment adviser, funds, managed accounts and the principal, producing combined beneficial ownership of 2,047,683 shares (~7.6%). The filing documents open-market acquisitions funded with working capital and client funds and provides aggregate cost bases for each reporting vehicle.

Key dependencies include continued alignment among the reporting persons and potential disclosure triggers if their aggregate holding or intentions change; monitor for further Schedule 13D amendments or Schedule 13G conversions within the next reporting cycle.

Voting and disposition rights are concentrated as shared power under the adviser.

Kanen Wealth Management is reported to have shared voting and dispositive power over 2,025,254 shares, while Mr. Kanen holds a small amount of sole power (22,429 shares). The disclosure clarifies how beneficial ownership is attributed across entities under common control.

Watch for any filings showing changes in voting arrangements or explicit plans (e.g., solicitations) that would alter governance influence; such items would typically appear in subsequent amendments or related filings.
