Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR: Proposed sale is small relative to shares outstanding, unlikely to be market-moving.

The Form 144 notifies a proposed brokered sale of 2,500 common shares valued at $290,856.00 via Morgan Stanley on NASDAQ. Relative to the reported 14,665,087 shares outstanding, the lot represents a very small fraction of the float (approximately 0.017%). The filing also notes no sales in the prior three months, and the shares were acquired as restricted stock in June 2021, indicating these are vested/transferable holdings rather than newly purchased open-market positions. From a trading-impact perspective, the size and disclosure suggest limited immediate market impact.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR: Form 144 is a routine insider/affiliate disclosure; it lacks identifying details in the provided text.

The document follows Rule 144 procedures by reporting the class, acquisition history (restricted stock on 06/11/2021 and 06/13/2021), broker details (Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC) and the planned sale date. The filer asserts no undisclosed material adverse information and reports no sales in the preceding three months. The filing text as provided does not include the seller's name or relationship to the issuer in the extract, limiting governance conclusions about motives or timing. As presented, this appears to be a standard notice rather than evidence of governance or disclosure issues.
