This significant open market purchase by Director Adebayo O. Ogunlesi, valued at $6 million, demonstrates strong insider confidence. The purchase was made at $1.90 per share, aligning with the pricing of the recent $185.25 million public offering that finalized on 2026-03-12. This insider buy, representing over 0.5% of the company's market capitalization, is particularly notable as it occurs shortly after the company reported a substantial net loss for 2025 and undertook a dilutive capital raise. The director's participation in the offering signals a belief in the company's future prospects despite recent financial challenges and the dilution from the offering.
