Rule 10b5-1(c) regulatory
"written plan adopted on June 16, 2026, meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)"
Rule 10b5-1(c) is an SEC guideline that lets company insiders set up a written, pre-planned schedule to buy or sell their company stock when they are not in possession of material, nonpublic information. For investors, it matters because such plans can reduce the appearance of insider trading by separating decisions from inside knowledge—like putting your trades on autopilot—while also requiring scrutiny since pre-planned trades can still affect market confidence and share value.
