Insights

Corporate Governance Analyst

Director sold a small portion of holdings via a 10b5-1 plan on 10/08/2025.

The sale of 1,000 shares at $30.22 reduces direct ownership to 23,767 shares. Because the transaction is reported as executed under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, it was pre-specified and is less likely to indicate new, company-specific material information.

Key dependencies are the terms and start date of the 10b5-1 plan and whether additional scheduled trades remain; monitor any subsequent Form 4 filings for further sales within the plan over the next several months.

Equity Markets Specialist

Single director sale at market size unlikely to move shares materially.

A disposition of 1,000 shares is modest given typical public-company float sizes and the reported post-sale holding of 23,767 shares. The transaction price of $30.22 provides a concrete execution level for that block on 10/08/2025.

If multiple insiders report similar transactions or larger aggregate disposals, the market impact could be greater; watch for clustered filings within a 30-day window.
