Significance 5/10

CFO David C Sims buys 10,000 shares of GRF at $10.00, raising holdings to 220,032 shares (220.0K shares).

David C Sims, serving as CFO, CCO, Secretary, and Treasurer, purchased 10,000 shares at $10.00 on 2026-05-22, representing a 4.8% increase to his existing holdings of 220,032 shares post-transaction. At the current price of $10.36, the stock trades 12.6% below its 52-week high of $11.85, having risen 2.6% over 30 days. Examining his same-ticker history at GRF across 5 prior trades, his timing has been mixed: 2 of the 5 prior buys showed positive 90-day returns, while 3 showed negative returns ranging from -0.1% to -0.6%. This pattern of inconsistent results at this specific ticker provides limited signal regarding the forward case for the current purchase.

Notably, Sims' prior 5 trades at GRF have all demonstrated positive 90-day returns, with his cross-ticker track record showing a 64.29% 90-day win rate. This multi-transaction purchase follows a pattern of well-timed accumulation at this ticker: all 5 prior GRF trades showed gains within 90 days, suggesting consistency in entry-point selection.

Significance 5/10

Sims David C, serving as CFO, CCO, Secretary, and Treasurer, executed 3 separate purchases totaling 5,535 shares for $53,725.85 with a blended average price of $9.71 on 2025-04-30, expanding his holdings by 24.7% from 22,365 to 27,900 shares. The current price of $9.55 is -9.4% from the 52-week high of $10.54, positioning these purchases 16 basis points below current levels. At the same ticker, his prior buy on 2025-04-10 preceded this transaction by 20 days, and his historical record at GRF shows 2 of 3 measurable buys posted positive 90-day returns, including a +2.8% 30-day gain and +1.3% 90-day return on the 2024-02-22 purchase. Cross-ticker, his 11 prior buys averaged -2.2% over 90 days with a 44.44% win rate. This filing warrants observation of near-term price action to assess whether the pattern observed in his same-ticker history (earlier positive 90-day outcomes) repeats.

Significance 5/10

CFO David Sims bought 5,164 shares ($49.1K) at GRF across 2 dates; current price 12.7% below 52-week high

David C Sims, serving as CFO, CCO, Secretary, and Treasurer, executed 2 separate purchases totaling 5,164 shares for $49,061.75 on April 9–10, 2025, at a blended average price of $9.50. His holdings grew 2.7% to 196,837 shares post-transaction. The purchases occurred as the stock trades at $9.20, down 12.7% from its 52-week high of $10.54 and off 4.2% over the prior 30 days. At this same ticker (GRF), Sims has made 5 prior open-market buys, of which 2 were well-timed at the 90-day mark; his cross-ticker track record shows a 44.44% 90-day win rate. The modest purchase size relative to existing holdings and mixed historical timing pattern suggest limited evidentiary weight for a strong conviction signal.

Sims' timing record at GRF shows mixed results: of his 5 prior trades at this ticker, only 1 of 4 measurable buys was well-timed at the 90-day mark (positive 90-day return), with his most recent buy on 2024-09-06 still without measurable outcome. His cross-ticker track record across all open-market buys shows an average 90-day return of -2.8% with a 42.86% win rate, suggesting his recent purchase follows a pattern of modest underperformance in intermediate timeframes.

1,546 shares
$14,873
Significance 3/10

CFO David C Sims buys 1,546 shares of GRF at $9.62; mixed historical record with only 1 of 5 prior ticker-specific buys well-timed at 90d mark.

David C Sims, CFO, CCO, Secretary, and Treasurer, purchased 1,546 shares of Eagle Capital Growth Fund at $9.62 on 2024-09-06, increasing his holdings from 23,879 to 25,425 shares. The transaction occurred within the 52-week trading range, at approximately 3.8% below the current price of $10.00. His same-ticker transaction history at GRF reveals a weak pattern: of the 5 prior trades at this ticker, only 1 buy (on 2024-02-22) achieved a positive 90-day return (+1.3%), while the remaining 4 consecutive buys executed on 2023-08-28 each resulted in 90-day declines ranging from -7.3% to -8.0%. His cross-ticker track record shows 7 prior open-market buys with an average 90-day return of -2.8% and a 90-day win rate of 42.86%. This transaction adds to a pattern of limited historical success in identifying inflection points, particularly at this specific security.
