Context
These entries are vesting/conversion events (derivative exercise/conversion) where award shares convert to common stock and a portion is withheld to cover tax obligations — a routine administrative step, not an open-market sale or purchase. The withholding amounts (F transactions) serve only to pay taxes on the vested/converted awards.
