Context
- This was a scheduled PSU vesting/settlement (an award being settled into stock), not an open-market purchase or a voluntary sale. The withholding of shares to cover taxes is a routine administrative step and does not necessarily indicate a change in insider sentiment. Transaction codes: M = exercise/conversion of derivative (here, settlement of PSUs); F = payment of tax liability via share withholding.
