Open-market purchases and sales (Form 4 codes P and S) by officers, directors and 10% owners, by transaction date, from 2025-10-01 to 2026-01-29. Excludes option exercises, grants, gifts and tax withholding. Amended filings replace the originals; joint filings count once. Foreign private issuers do not file Form 4. Many insider sales are pre-scheduled (10b5-1 plans) and are not by themselves a sign of wrongdoing.
"Following that process, on December 23, 2025, KPMG LLP ("KPMG") was appointed to serve as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026."
