Form 4 raw → Raspberry

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.

Each restricted stock unit ("RSU") represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock. The RSUs vest on December 30, 2026 contingent on the Reporting Person's continued service as a Director on such vesting date. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock. The RSUs vest on July 1, 2027, contingent on the Reporting Person's continued service as a Director on such vesting date. Each share of phantom stock represents a right to receive one share of common stock. The phantom stock becomes payable on the date that the Reporting Person no longer serves as a director of the Company. The acquired shares of phantom stock were acquired upon deferral of the Reporting Person's cash compensation for service on the Board of Directors in the quarter ended September 30, 2026 pursuant to the Company's Non-Employee Director Equity and Deferred Compensation Plan.
