General Counsel Patterson buys 15,000 shares ($75.9K) at $5.06 avg; company unprofitable, down 88.1% from 52-week high
Charles E. Patterson II, General Counsel/Secretary, executed 5 separate purchases totaling 15,000 shares for $75,880.00 at a blended average price of $5.06 on October 2–3, 2025, increasing his stake by 20.9% to 86,855 shares. The timing coincides with a steep price environment: the stock trades at $5.84, representing an 88.1% decline from its 52-week high of $49.10, and has fallen 13.1% over the past 90 days. Contextually, the company reported a net loss of $6,093,080.00 for the most recent full fiscal year despite annual revenue growth of 40.2%, indicating profitability remains absent despite top-line expansion. A cluster pattern is present: 5 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days. Patterson's cross-ticker track record shows 9 prior buys with an average 30-day return of 19.9%, and his prior purchases at MKZR (5 trades in August 2025) all registered positive 30-day returns ranging from 5.5% to 20.2%. The current acquisition occurs in a deeply depressed valuation window relative to prior trading ranges, which differentiates it from his recent August entry pattern but does not clarify whether this accumulation reflects confidence in an inflection or is part of a systematic purchase schedule.
