Executive Summary

Director Steven DenBaars files Form 144 to sell 25,000 ALMU shares (~$519k value), following two recent insider sales in Feb 2026. The filing indicates intent to sell, though the sale may not be executed.

Actionable Insight

The director's intent to sell, combined with recent insider sales and a weak historical track record on ALMU calls (avg -11% T+20 P&L), signals potential near-term selling pressure. Monitor whether the sale actually executes on Form 4; if so, watch for further insider selling ahead of the next earnings report.
