Open-market purchases and sales (Form 4 codes P and S) by officers, directors and 10% owners, by transaction date, from 2025-03-11 to 2025-07-09. Excludes option exercises, grants, gifts and tax withholding. Amended filings replace the originals; joint filings count once. Foreign private issuers do not file Form 4. Many insider sales are pre-scheduled (10b5-1 plans) and are not by themselves a sign of wrongdoing.

Verified excerpt

"In connection with the notification of the merger, Moss Adams has resigned as the auditors of the Company and the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors approved the appointment of Baker Tilly, as the successor to Moss Adams, as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm."

Quoted from the filing. Source

What this means

The company changed its outside auditor (8-K Item 4.01). A dismissal or resignation, especially near an annual report or with reported disagreements, is a warning sign. Changes caused by audit firms merging are usually routine.

Type: resigned
Disagreements reported: no
Former auditor: Moss Adams LLP · New auditor: Baker Tilly US, LLP

Why this score: auditor resigned; also within 90 days: Going-concern doubt
