Insights

Corporate Governance Analyst

Director purchased 629 shares, bringing holdings to 13,907.

This Form 4 discloses a routine non‑derivative acquisition by a director on 10/01/2025. The reported price of $0.0000 indicates the shares were not bought at market value (for example, they may have been granted or transferred), but the form contains no further explanation.

Because this is an insider purchase and the director now holds 13,907 shares, investors can track insider alignment with shareholder interests; the filing does not include options, dispositions, or other material changes.
