Such plans allow insiders to schedule trades in advance under preset terms, helping reduce concerns that trades are based on material nonpublic information. The document identifies the security as Kratos common stock. The excerpt provided does not show the transaction code or the total number of shares beneficially owned by Mendoza after the transaction, so those details cannot be confirmed from the filing text supplied. It does, however, include an ownership note stating that Mendoza’s holdings include 2,343 shares purchased through the company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan and approximately 14,913 shares held through the company’s 401(k) Plan. The Form 4 was signed on Mendoza’s behalf by Eva Yee, attorney-in-fact, on July 17, 2026. The main significance of the filing is that it discloses an insider stock transaction by Mendoza in Kratos shares, executed under a preexisting trading plan, at a market price of $51.79 per share.
