- Director Eric Mark Green purchased 3,690 shares across two transactions totaling $1,020,797.61.
- The purchases were executed at prices of $276.5770 and $277.2910 per share, all on the open market.
- No 10b5-1 trading plan was used — these were discretionary, same-day purchases.
- Post-transaction, Green holds 7,947 shares directly.
- Green is a non-executive director (not an officer), which moderates the signal relative to a C-suite buy.
Stock is flat (+0.12%) since the filing hit during the regular session, consistent with a director-level buy that carries a moderate but not urgent signal. The $1.02M outlay is meaningful for a non-executive director and may draw attention in after-hours.
A non-executive director committing over $1M of personal capital in discretionary open-market buys is a notable confidence signal, even if less potent than officer-level activity.
_Not applicable._
Director purchases can signal confidence but are not as predictive of future returns as C-suite or cluster buying.
