beneficially owns financial
"As of March 27, 2026, each of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns 2,979,968 shares"
Beneficially owns means a person or entity enjoys the economic benefits and control of a security even if the legal title or registration is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and profits from a car that is registered to a friend: you use it, benefit from it, and make decisions about it even though the official paperwork lists someone else. For investors, this matters because it reveals who truly controls shares, affects voting power, potential conflicts of interest, and regulatory disclosure obligations.
pecuniary interest financial
"disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities ... in excess of its pecuniary interests therein"
open market sales financial
"sold 806,929 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer in a series of open market sales"
weighted average price financial
"Number of Shares Weighted Average Price Per Share March 5, 2026 8,115 $15.1791(1)"
Weighted average price is the average price of a security where each trade or component is counted according to its size, so bigger trades pull the average more than smaller ones. Think of it like calculating the average cost of a grocery haul where items you bought more of have greater influence on the final per-item cost. Investors use it to understand the true average price paid or received, judge execution quality, and compare trading performance against market movement.
Schedule 13D financial
"This Amendment No. 4 amends the with respect to the shares ... previously filed"
A Schedule 13D is a legal document that investors file with regulators when they buy a large enough stake in a company to potentially influence its management or decisions. It provides details about the investor’s intention, ownership stake, and plans, helping other investors understand who is gaining control and what their motives might be.
