Recommendation

The reported sale of 300 shares by the Chief Financial Officer, Elizabeth Mann, was conducted under a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 trading plan established in December 2024. Such pre-planned transactions are generally non-discretionary and do not typically indicate a change in management's outlook on the company's fundamentals. Given the relatively small volume compared to total outstanding shares and the pre-planned nature, this transaction alone does not provide sufficient new information to alter an existing investment thesis, thus a 'hold' recommendation is appropriate.
