The company had to sell stock to raise capital. It sure looks like it would have served the company's needs better, if Smith would have brought those shares direct. Unless of course he was buying those share indirect in an attempt to artificially drive the stock price up, linking his buys with the timing of PR releases.

Just thinking out loud.
