Key Details
- Transaction dates: awards/issuance on 2026-02-25; tax-withholding disposals on 2026-02-25 and 2026-02-26. Form filed 2026-02-27 (appears timely).
- Awards: 649,039 shares issued (PSUs vested) and 726 RSUs granted — both reported as acquisition (code A) at $0.00.

- Footnote summary: PSUs were performance-based awards granted Feb 23, 2023 and partially vested following certification of performance by the Compensation Committee; RSU grant vests over 2027 (1/4 on Feb 25, 2027, then quarterly installments). Some withholdings relate to earlier RSU vestings reported in prior Form 4 filings.
- Transaction codes: A = award/grant, F = shares withheld/used to pay tax liability (not open-market sale).
- Shares owned after these transactions are not explicitly shown in this summary filing; net new shares from these entries = +618,315.
Context
- PSUs are performance-based equity that vest only if preset company performance and service conditions are met; the PSU shares here were issued after the Comp. Committee certified results.
- The withheld shares represent a tax-withholding (cashless share retention) to satisfy payroll/tax obligations on vesting — this is a routine administrative action, not an open-market sell.
- These entries reflect equity compensation actions (awards and withholding), not purchases or market sales that would be interpreted as direct bullish/bearish trading by the insider.
