Award Timing Disclosures [Line Items] |  |
Award Timing MNPI Disclosure | Policy on Timing of Option Grants The Company does not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material non-public information (“MNPI”), and it does not time the release of MNPI for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation. Although the Company has not adopted a predetermined schedule for the granting of option and other equity awards, it is the Compensation Committee’s long standing practice to approve annual equity awards at its regularly-scheduled meeting held in December of each year. The effective grant date of these awards is the first trading day of the year immediately following the award. The Compensation Committee may also grant option and other equity awards to individuals upon hire or promotion to executive officer positions or appointment to the Board. The timing of the annual option and other equity awards approved by the Compensation Committee on December 5, 2024, with a grant date of January 2, 2025 (the first trading day of the year), was consistent with long standing practice and not tied to the timing of any release of MNPI. |
