Analysis · STRZ · Trade & Services

The register loses an activist-style 13D holder outright: Allen Family Capital and Byron Allen Folks sold their entire 1,803,786-share position between August 7 and September 29, 2026, and fell below 5% ownership on September 17. Disclosed prices of $21.06 to $28.20 show the stock had already slid toward today's $21.74 as the block was absorbed. No overhang remains from this holder, but neither does an insider advocate pushing for change.
