Key Details
- Transaction dates: 2026-05-28 (reported on Form 4 filed 2026-05-29).
- Grant: 1,647 RSUs (price $0.00) — these are awards, not open-market purchases.
- Disposition: 0.326 share cashed out at $109.90/share for $36 (fractional-share cashout).
- Shares owned after the transactions: not disclosed in this filing.
- Footnotes: F1 — RSUs vest on May 28, 2027, subject to forfeiture/acceleration provisions. F2 — grant includes 41.325775 additional RSUs from dividend equivalents paid on 7/22/2025, 10/21/2025, 1/20/2026 and 4/21/2026. F3 — the $36 reflects the cashout of a fractional share on payout.
- Timeliness: Filed the next day (May 29) for transactions dated May 28 — appears timely.
Context RSUs are a form of compensation that convert to shares upon vesting; this grant does not represent an open-market purchase (which some investors view as a stronger positive signal). The small cash payment was a routine fractional-share cashout when RSUs were paid out and is not meaningful about insider sentiment.
