Insights
TL;DR: A reported purchase of 1 share increases reported HKAM beneficial ownership to 1,164,002 shares; additional holdings are disclosed via a Schedule 13D.
The Form 4 documents a purchase-coded transaction on 09/23/2025 for one share at $896.91, with beneficial ownership reported at 1,164,002 shares following the trade. The filing includes a footnote referencing an amended Schedule 13D filed 12/18/2024, which reported HKAM beneficial ownership of 3,578,173 shares and separate direct and indirect interests for Murray Stahl. For investors, this Form 4 is a routine insider filing that confirms ownership levels and a nominal open-market purchase; it does not by itself indicate a change in control or material shift in HKAM’s disclosed position.
TL;DR: Disclosure clarifies beneficial ownership and shows a director-affiliated filer executed a small purchase, with prior Schedule 13D holdings referenced.
The reporting entity is identified as a director and is filing individually. The submission complies with Section 16 reporting by noting a purchase transaction and clarifying the extent of HKAM’s pecuniary interest via a Schedule 13D footnote. The document is signed by an attorney-in-fact, indicating authorized filing. The filing is procedural and informational; material governance implications would depend on the broader context of the Schedule 13D disclosures rather than this single-share purchase.
