From the Form 4s insiders file with the SEC within two business days of each trade. Before May 22, 2026 the table lists open-market purchases and sales only (no grants, option exercises or tax withholding), from the SEC's quarterly data sets. The 10b5-1 mark comes from the form's own box (since April 2023) or from a footnote of the filing that names the plan, where there is one.

Major holders (over 5%)
Whoever comes to own more than 5% of a class of shares reports it to the SEC on Schedule 13D or 13G. Here is each holder's latest filing.
Fell to 5% or less (2)
Holders whose latest filing says they hold 5% or less. After it they need not file again, so what they hold today is not known.
From the Schedule 13D and 13G filed with the SEC since Dec 18, 2024, when they became structured data. A holder who has filed nothing since then is not shown here. A 13D is updated within two business days of any material change, a 13G up to 45 days after the quarter of the change, so the shares are those of the filing. The large managers also appear in the 13Fs.

As brokers report them to the regulator twice a month, mid-month and at month end, published about eight business days later. A short position is shares sold borrowed and not yet bought back. The share count is the one the company's market value is figured on, from its filings. Days to cover is the shares held short over the average daily volume of the weeks between two reports.

This is not the number of shares sold short today: it measures short sales within each day's trading, and only trades made off the exchanges. Much of it is market makers, who sell shares they do not have to fill buyers' orders and cover soon after, so for a heavily traded stock the share is often around half.

A lower bound: it counts only the 15 officers and directors with a market trade since Nov 16, 2023. Anyone who neither bought nor sold since is not here, whatever they hold. The share is against the share count on the latest 10-K's cover.
10b5-1 trading plans
Since 2023 every 10-Q and 10-K says which insiders adopted or ended a trading plan (Rule 10b5-1) in the quarter: when, for how many shares, until when. A plan explains the sales that follow months before they show up on Form 4.

As the company states them in Item 9B of the 10-K and Part II, Item 5 of the 10-Q, with structured data. A plan allows sales on preset dates and prices. It does not say whether all of them will be executed.
Executive pay
From the Pay versus Performance table every company puts in its proxy statement since 2023: what the chief executive was paid, what was actually paid once the shares vest at year-end values, and how the stock did against the peer group the company itself picked.

Actually paid: $0

From the proxy statement (DEF 14A) of Apr 7, 2026, as filed with the SEC with structured data. Pay in dollars. The company picks its own peer group and measure. DEF 14A
The shareholders' vote on pay
The advisory say-on-pay vote at each annual meeting, as the company states it in the 8-K it files after the meeting: how many voted for and against the executives' pay. 90% is the norm. Under 70% proxy advisers expect the board to respond the next year.
