Open-market purchases (Form 4 code P) in the five years to Oct 05, 2026, valued at $41.90 on Oct 31, 2026. Grants are excluded: they cost the insider nothing. Shares an insider has since sold are not counted — each person's purchases are capped at what they most recently reported holding, at their own average price paid. The score's "Above or below water" component is computed from these figures at the score's price, where a price below insider cost scores higher.
