Context

Director Ferebee John Jethro Jr filed a Form 4 open-market purchase of 7,000 shares at $12.50 on 2026-06-18.

Expected impact

Likely minimal near-term price impact; any effect would be sentiment-driven rather than fundamental.

Evidence & confidence

Market effects

No sector-level implications; this is company-specific insider activity.
