Context

• These were outright sales (code S) under a pre-set 10b5-1 plan, which are commonly used by insiders to sell shares on a scheduled basis and do not necessarily signal a change in view.
• The reporting person is an executive (CLO); the filing does not indicate a 10% owner status.
• For retail investors, purchases generally carry more informational weight than routine, plan-driven sales; this filing documents routine disposition under a trading plan rather than an opportunistic market-timed trade.
