Key Details

  • Total shares disposed: 1,297; total proceeds/withholding value: ≈ $243,655.

  • Shares owned after the transactions: not specified in the provided filing details.
  • Filing date: Form 4 filed 2026-03-23; no late filing flag indicated in the provided data.

Context

  • Code F transactions commonly reflect automatic withholding or sale of shares to cover tax obligations when options are exercised or restricted shares vest. This is generally routine and does not necessarily signal a voluntary decision to take profits or a change in sentiment by the insider.
  • For retail investors, purchases and discretionary open‑market sales can be more informative than tax‑withholding disposals.
