Beneficially ownedregulatory
"As of April 6, 2026, Mr. Murray beneficially owned 3,611,360 shares"
Beneficially owned describes securities or assets where a person has the economic rights and control—such as the right to receive dividends and to direct voting—even if legal title is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and using a car that’s registered to someone else: you get the benefits and make decisions. Investors care because beneficial ownership reveals who truly controls value and voting power, affecting corporate decisions and takeover dynamics.
Sole dispositive powerregulatory
"Sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: 3,468,465"
Sole dispositive power is the exclusive legal authority to decide what happens to a security — for example, whether to sell, transfer, or retain shares — without needing anyone else’s permission. Investors care because it signals who truly controls the economic outcome of an investment: like holding the only key to a safe, the holder can realize gains or losses and may trigger regulatory reporting, insider rules, or influence over corporate ownership.
Denominatorfinancial
"based on the denominator of 72,212,758 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock outstanding"
The denominator is the number on the bottom of a fraction that shows the total population or base used to calculate a rate, percentage or ratio — for example, the total shares outstanding when calculating earnings per share, or all trial participants when reporting a safety rate. It matters to investors because changing the denominator (by issuing more shares, changing the population measured, or narrowing the base) can make percentages and per‑unit figures look better or worse even if the underlying raw numbers stay the same, much like changing the size of a pizza makes each slice appear larger or smaller.
Revocable Trustlegal
"held by James B. Murray, Jr., as Trustee of the James B. Murray, Jr. Revocable Trust U/A/D 8/5/1991"
A revocable trust is a legal arrangement where the person who creates it keeps control and can change or cancel the trust at any time, while naming who will manage and receive the assets later. Think of it like a flexible folder for your investments and property that can be relabeled or reworked as circumstances change; it matters to investors because it determines how ownership is recorded, how easily assets transfer on incapacity or death, and whether holdings bypass public probate proceedings.
