Insights
TL;DR: Insider sales were executed under a documented 10b5-1 plan and were for tax withholding on RSU vesting, indicating routine, pre-planned activity.
The report shows the CRO used a Rule 10b5-1 plan adopted August 29, 2024, to effect small, discrete share disposals on 09/05/2025 and 09/08/2025. The disclosed purpose—covering tax withholding on vested restricted stock units—is a common, non-discretionary reason for sales and reduces the risk those sales were opportunistic. The filings provide weighted average prices and ranges, and the reporting signature is via attorney-in-fact, consistent with standard practice.
TL;DR: Sales totaled 6,782 shares at roughly $5.52 average, modest relative to total holdings; this is a routine liquidity action rather than a stake change.
The two reported disposition events reduced beneficial ownership from 509,082 to 506,070 shares. The prices reported were weighted averages ($5.5155 and $5.5811) with transaction ranges provided. The amounts sold appear to be specifically to satisfy tax withholding on RSU vesting rather than broad portfolio reallocation. No other derivative or additional transactions are reported on this Form 4.
