Open-market purchases and sales (Form 4 codes P and S) by officers, directors and 10% owners, by transaction date, from 2025-09-17 to 2026-01-15. 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.
"(the "Company") approved the dismissal of Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of December 15, 2025."
Quoted from the filing. Source
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: dismissed
Disagreements reported: no
Former auditor: Deloitte & Touche LLP
Why this score: also within 90 days: Going-concern doubt
