Context
RSUs are awards that convert into shares upon vesting; the $0.00 price reflects that these were grants/vesting events rather than purchases. Performance RSUs that vested reflect achievement of prior targets and are routine compensation; tax‑withholding by withholding shares is a common administrative step and not an open‑market sale. Awards and withholding do not necessarily signal the insider’s buy/sell sentiment.
