Context These transactions reflect vesting of performance-based restricted stock/RSU-like units and routine tax withholding, not open‑market selling. Code A denotes an award/grant; code F indicates shares were surrendered to satisfy tax or exercise price obligations. Such withholding is common and does not by itself signal a buy/sell view by the insider.
