3 terms

weighted-average price financial

"Represents a weighted-average price. These shares were purchased in multiple transactions"

Weighted-average price is the average of multiple prices where each price is counted according to its size or importance—larger trades carry more weight than smaller ones, like averaging course grades by credit hours. It matters to investors because it gives a more realistic picture of the true price paid or received, helping assess trade execution, compare performance, calculate cost basis, and value positions more accurately than a simple average.

irrevocable trust financial

"By the James A. Burke 2012 Irrevocable Trust, dated 12/03/2012"

An irrevocable trust is a legal arrangement where an owner transfers assets into a separate entity managed by a trustee and gives up the power to modify or reclaim those assets. For investors it matters because putting stock or other holdings into such a trust can change who controls and benefits from the assets, affect taxes and creditor protection, and influence how easy it is to sell or value those holdings—like placing valuables in a locked safe overseen by someone else.

indirect ownership financial

"By JAMEB, LP, a limited partnership jointly owned by Reporting Person and his spouse"
