Rule 10b5-1 trading plan regulatory
"The transaction was effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted by the reporting person on August 8, 2025."
A Rule 10b5-1 trading plan is a pre-arranged schedule that allows company insiders to buy or sell stock at specific times, even if they have inside information. It helps prevent accusations of unfair trading by making these transactions look planned and transparent, rather than sneaky or illegal.
weighted average price financial
"The price reported is a weighted average price. These shares were sold in multiple transactions at prices ranging from $7.92 to $8.19, inclusive."
Weighted average price is the average price of a security where each trade or component is counted according to its size, so bigger trades pull the average more than smaller ones. Think of it like calculating the average cost of a grocery haul where items you bought more of have greater influence on the final per-item cost. Investors use it to understand the true average price paid or received, judge execution quality, and compare trading performance against market movement.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan financial
"Includes 1,288 shares acquired on June 30, 2026 under the issuer's 2018 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended."
An employee stock purchase plan is a company program that lets workers buy shares through small payroll deductions, often at a discount to the market price and after a set offering period. Think of it like a workplace savings plan that turns into ownership: it encourages employees to share in the company’s success and can create predictable buying or selling of stock that investors watch because it affects supply, demand and employee incentives.
