% 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.

## Insider purchases (SEC Form 4, open-market, last ~7 months)
4 purchases, $2.7M. Private placements, offerings, dividend reinvestment and employee stock purchase plan buys are excluded.
| Trade date | Insider | Role | Shares | Value | Avg price | Insider type |

| 2026-04-13 | Hill Elliott | PRESIDENT & CEO | 23,660 | $1.0M | 42.27 | Too little history (no open-market trades in 2023 or 2024) |
| 2026-04-10 | Cook Timothy D | Director | 25,000 | $1.1M | 42.43 | Too little history (no open-market trades in 2023 or 2024) |
| 2026-04-09 | Rogers John W Jr | Director | 4,000 | $173K | 43.34 | Too little history (no open-market trades in 2023 or 2025) |
