Context
- These entries reflect option exercises followed by immediate open-market sales (a common "cashless" or sell-to-cover pattern). Exercising options and then selling the acquired shares generally realizes the spread between the exercise price and market price rather than indicating a new long-term purchase.
- The filing is factual reporting of transactions; it does not state motivation.
