Why are they buying?

AI · discretionary · catalyst credible · documented

Directors likely stepped in to purchase shares following a sharp 16% stock selloff triggered by lingering investor concerns over previous guidance, despite the company reporting better-than-expected Q1 2026 results and raising its annual revenue outlook on May 6.

Between May 8 and May 20, 2026, six different directors (George Walter N., Kelley Jacki Sue, Biegger David, McLevish Timothy R., Steeneck Craig D., and Brewster Daryl G.) executed open-market purchases totaling thousands of shares.
