Context
- These transactions are routine: awards/PSU/RSU vesting and the surrender of shares to satisfy tax withholding (F-coded dispositions) — not open-market sales that signal an intentional cash-out.
- For clarity: M-coded entries here reflect conversion/settlement of awarded performance- or restricted-stock units into common shares. The F-coded entries are not discretionary sell orders for investment purposes but tax withholdings arising from the vesting events.
