Context
- The award (A) reflects earned PRSUs based on multi-year performance — these are compensation vesting events, not cash purchases.
- The F-coded disposition is a common tax-withholding step when restricted shares vest (not an open-market sale).
- The S-coded transaction is an open-market sale; sales are often routine and do not by themselves indicate management sentiment about the company.
