What changed in the last 30 days
Oct 2Chief Financial Officer Spice Adam C. sold $9.9M 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 1Officer ADAM C SPICE filed to sell $9.8M 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.
