Context
- RSU grants are compensation awards and vest over time; they are not an immediate purchase signal. The withheld shares are a common, administrative action to satisfy tax withholding on vesting and should not be interpreted as an intentional open-market sale by the insider.
- The new RSUs vest in three equal annual installments (first, second, third anniversaries), so the economic interest vests over multiple years, subject to service requirements.
