What changed in the last 30 days
Oct 19SVP, Operations Franks Joshua Allen sold $1.8M under a 10b5-1 plan (2 trades, Oct 12 to Oct 15)
Why it matters
A 10b5-1 plan schedules trades months ahead, so this says little about what the insider thinks today.
Oct 5Chief Executive Officer AMIN TARANG sold $4.9M under a 10b5-1 plan (Oct 1)
Why it matters
A 10b5-1 plan schedules trades months ahead, so this says little about what the insider thinks today.
Oct 1Director TARANG AMIN filed to sell $4.7M by Oct 1 (Form 144)
Why it matters
A Form 144 is a notice of intent to sell; the sale may not happen, and it says nothing about the price.
