beneficially owns financial

"The aggregate number of shares of common stock to which this relates is 772,965 shares representing 37.57%..."

Beneficially owns means a person or entity enjoys the economic benefits and control of a security even if the legal title or registration is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and profits from a car that is registered to a friend: you use it, benefit from it, and make decisions about it even though the official paperwork lists someone else. For investors, this matters because it reveals who truly controls shares, affects voting power, potential conflicts of interest, and regulatory disclosure obligations.

sole voting power financial

"Number of Shares Beneficially Owned by Each Reporting Person With: 7 | Sole Voting Power 71,412.00"

Sole voting power is the exclusive right to cast votes attached to a shareholder’s stock without needing approval from anyone else. Like holding the only remote control for a TV, it lets that holder decide corporate matters such as board members, mergers, and policy changes, making it important to investors because it concentrates control and can strongly influence a company’s strategy and the value of its shares.

shared dispositive power financial

Schedule 13D regulatory

"If the filing person has previously filed a statement on Schedule 13G to report the acquisition..."

A Schedule 13D is a legal document that investors file with regulators when they buy a large enough stake in a company to potentially influence its management or decisions. It provides details about the investor’s intention, ownership stake, and plans, helping other investors understand who is gaining control and what their motives might be.

Advisory clients financial

"On March 17, 2026, through open market transactions, the Advisory clients bought 514 shares at $15.50."
