Rule 10b5-1 trading plan regulatory
"The sales reported were pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted by the Reporting Person on September 4, 2025."
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 sale price financial
"The price reported above reflects the weighted average sale price."
beneficial ownership regulatory
"The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares except to the extent of her 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.
irrevocable trust financial
"Held by the Krishnan Spousal Trust, an irrevocable trust established by Mr. Krishnan for the benefit of Mrs. Krishnan..."
An irrevocable trust is a legal arrangement where an owner transfers assets into a separate entity managed by a trustee and gives up the power to modify or reclaim those assets. For investors it matters because putting stock or other holdings into such a trust can change who controls and benefits from the assets, affect taxes and creditor protection, and influence how easy it is to sell or value those holdings—like placing valuables in a locked safe overseen by someone else.
co-trustee financial
"Mrs. Krishnan who serves as a co-trustee and shares voting and investment power with a 3rd party co-trustee."
