non-employee director compensation plan financial

"pursuant to an amendment to the Issuer's non-employee director compensation plan providing for the replacement"

quarterly cash retainer financial

"replacement of the quarterly cash retainer earned in the first quarter of fiscal 2026"

fair market value financial

"with an award of Issuer common stock with a fair market value equal to such quarterly cash retainer"

The price a willing buyer and a willing seller would agree on for an asset or security when neither is under pressure and both have access to the same information. Think of it as the market’s neutral estimate of what something is worth, like the price two neighbors would settle on for a car after comparing similar listings. Investors care because fair market value guides buying and selling decisions, tax reporting, portfolio valuation, and how accurately company assets are reflected in financial statements.
