From a 13F filed Aug 14, 2026 covering holdings at Jun 30, 2026 — a quarter-end snapshot, not a live trade.
The holder reported owning less than 5%, which ends its duty to keep reporting this stake.
Prices are daily closes from Polygon.io. Company figures come from its own SEC filings. Past moves are not a forecast. OQRO reports what was filed and never tells you what to buy or sell.
1 notice filed with state agencies, covering 78 workers in total. Employers must warn the state ahead of a plant closing or mass layoff at a site.
Official WARN lists from California, Texas, New York, Florida, Illinois and Washington only; notices filed in other states are not shown. Matched on the employer name as filed, so a notice filed under an unrelated subsidiary name can be missing. Dates are the notice date (Washington: the date the state received it).
Anyone owning more than 5% must file within days. Structured filings exist since December 2024, so older stakes that were never amended may be missing.

Top officer leaving

8-K on sec.govFrom the company's 8-K, 10-K and 10-Q filings over the last two years. A flag is a reason to read the filing, not a verdict: many departures are planned retirements and many listing notices are resolved. Insider sales are shown for timing only; they are separate filings.
Short sale volume: 36.5% of the volume reported to FINRA over the last 20 trading days was marked short, below its 1-year average of 45.4%. FINRA daily files, to Oct 2, 2026.
Fails to deliver: 34K shares (about $17.5M) were not delivered on time for settlement on Sep 8, 2026. SEC fails-to-deliver data.
Short sale volume is not short interest. It counts trades marked short, including market makers selling short to fill buy orders, so it is a share of daily trading, not a count of bets against the stock. Fails to deliver have many causes, including processing delays, and are often resolved within days.
