Key Details

Transaction date: March 17, 2026; Form 4 filed March 19, 2026 (within the standard 2-business-day reporting window).
Price per share: $78.29; shares withheld/disposed: 873; total value: $68,347.
Transaction code: F — shares surrendered/withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations (not an open-market sale).
Footnote F1: Withholding was to satisfy taxes on RSUs that vested March 17, 2026; those RSUs were originally granted March 17, 2025.
Footnote F2: The filing also discloses unvested RSU balances subject to future vesting: 5,625 RSUs (vesting in three installments on Mar 3 of 2027–2029), 3,080 RSUs (vesting in two installments on Mar 17, 2027 & 2028), and 2,800 RSUs (vesting in two installments on Mar 20, 2026 & 2027).
Shares owned after the transaction: not specified in the supplied filing details.

Context

This was a tax-withholding/settlement of vested RSUs (a routine administrative event), not a discretionary sale or purchase that would indicate the insider's view of the company's stock. In practice, withheld or surrendered shares to cover taxes are common when equity awards vest and generally should not be interpreted as a directional insider trade.
