Additional Context

Special Circumstances

• The filing notes that the sale was conducted automatically pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted by the insider on March 13, 2025. This significantly reduces the informational value of the sale, as it was pre-planned and not a spontaneous decision based on recent company performance or outlook.
