Context

• Purchases by insiders can be more informative than routine sales, but this was a small dollar purchase ($1,980) and should be viewed in context with other filings and company developments.
• The Section 16(b) disgorgement indicates there was a purchase/sale pairing within the six-month window that produced a short-swing profit; the insider has returned that profit to the company.
• As always, insider purchases are one data point—combine with financials, news, and other insider activity when evaluating the stock.
