Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-02-17; Form filed: 2026-02-19 (timely within the Form 4 window).
• Award grant date / original award: February 8, 2023 (performance-based RSUs).
• Transaction codes: A = award/acquisition (69,073 shares), F = payment of tax liability via share withholding (27,181 shares @ $20.01).

Context

• This was a vesting of previously granted performance RSUs, not an open-market purchase or discretionary sale. The withholding of shares to cover taxes is a routine administrative step and does not necessarily reflect a change in insider sentiment.
• The filing shows the net effect of the vesting and tax withholding; there is no indication additional shares were sold on the open market.
