Key questions – How does this sale compare to Ehrlichman’s historical selling pattern? The current transaction size of 120,368 shares aligns closely with Ehrlichman’s historical mean sale size of approximately 112,700 shares, indicating a continuation of routine liquidity actions rather than a change in selling cadence. – What is the purpose of this specific sale, and does it reflect a discretionary decision? This sale was required by the issuer at its election (without any discretion by the reporting person) under a sell-to-cover method as the sole means for plan participants to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the settlement of performance-based restricted stock unit awards that vested on April 7, 2026.
As previously disclosed, the issuer has confirmed its intent to settle vested shares of common stock for these awards in several transactions over approximately 45 days, between April 7, 2026 and May 21, 2026, to reduce market impact. – How did the sale impact Ehrlichman’s ownership stake? The transaction reduced Ehrlichman’s direct holdings to 15,972,080 shares, with his indirect holdings via West Equities, LLC remaining unchanged at 6,416,712 shares. – Is the transaction supported by current market valuation and trading levels? The weighted average sale price was around $9.78 per share, which was slightly above the May 20, 2026 market close of $9.74, suggesting execution near prevailing market conditions, with the stock down 3.04% over the past year as of the transaction date.
