- Positive Sentiment: Several sell‑side analysts maintain bullish views and have raised price targets this quarter (Piper Sandler, Morgan Stanley, Stephens, BTIG), supporting demand for the shares and helping lift sentiment. Analyst Coverage Summary

- Neutral Sentiment: Director Bruce Booth sold multiple tranches (April 14–15) totaling several thousand shares, but those sales were executed under a pre‑arranged Rule 10b5‑1 plan, which investors often view as scheduled liquidity rather than a change in insider conviction. SEC Form 4
- Negative Sentiment: COO Jeremy G. Chadwick sold a series of shares (total reported ~6,551 shares across April 14–15 at ~ $90 each) that reduced his stake; these transactions were disclosed without a 10b5‑1 designation, which can raise investor concern and likely pressured intraday trading.
