Context
- The RSU conversion is a non‑cash event (no exercise price); withholding of shares to cover taxes is routine and is reported as a disposition for tax purposes, not an open‑market sale for cash. The ESPP purchase is a cash purchase at a discount (a straightforward employee purchase, generally viewed more informative than routine withholding). These actions are administrative (vesting and tax withholding) rather than an intentional open‑market sale for proceeds.
