The value is in what we do not call a signal.
The SEC XML stores every transaction. Raspberry keeps that evidence, reads the footnotes and separates voluntary open-market activity from vesting, option exercises, gifts, tax withholding, stock purchase and dividend reinvestment plans and pre-programmed 10b5-1 trades.

The common stock is a restricted stock unit which represents a right to receive one share of common stock for each restricted stock unit. The number of restricted stock units awarded to the Reporting Person is a prorated portion of the Reporting Person's equity grant amount based on the number of days between August 17, 2026 and the Annual Meeting date divided by $127.24, the closing price of CVSA common stock on October 15, 2026. The restricted stock units will vest in full on November 12, 2026, subject to the Reporting Person's continued service on the Board through the vesting date.
