Insider sales (SEC Form 4, open-market, last ~7 months) (EGHT)
2 of 4 under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan (scheduled in advance). Unplanned sales were timed by the insider.
| Trade date | Insider | Role | Shares | Value | % of holdings sold | 10b5-1 plan | Insider type |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-09-11 | Denny Laurence | Chief Legal Officer | 9,433 | $17K | 1.5% | Yes (adopted June 12, 2026) | Opportunistic (traded every year 2023–2025, no repeating month) |
| 2026-09-11 | Burton Andrew F. | Director | 107,085 | $194K | 41.4% | Yes (adopted June 12, 2026) | Too little history (no open-market trades in 2023) |
| 2026-08-07 | Kraus Kevin | Chief Financial Officer | 34,329 | $80K | 3.5% | No | Routine (sold in Jan & Feb & Mar & Apr & May each year 2023–2025; this trade is outside those months) |
| 2026-07-27 | Theophille Elizabeth Harriet | Director | 20,207 | $37K | 10.8% | No | Routine (sold in Jul each year 2023–2025) |
% of holdings sold = shares sold ÷ (shares sold + all holdings the insider reported on that Form 4, direct and through trusts).
Insider type follows Cohen, Malloy & Pomorski (Journal of Finance, 2012). An insider who traded the stock in the same calendar month in each of the past three years is a routine trader; one who traded in each of those years without such a pattern is an opportunistic trader. In their study, trades by opportunistic insiders predicted future returns and trades by routine insiders did not. Counts open-market purchases and sales only (SEC Form 4 codes P and S) by that insider in that company. Not investment advice.
