Key Details
- Transaction date: March 6, 2026; Form 4 filed March 9, 2026 (filed within the normal two-business-day window — timely).
- Main numbers: 20,808 PSUs vested (200% payout); 3,468 RSUs vested. Total tax-withheld value: $1,853,400 (9,471.106 shares at $195.69).
- Notable footnotes: F2 confirms PSUs awarded 3/6/2023 vested at 200% on 3/6/2026; F1 indicates shares were withheld to pay tax liability; other footnotes (F5, F10, F11) describe remaining RSU vesting schedules.

- Transaction codes: M = exercise/conversion of derivative (PSU/RSU vesting); F = shares withheld to pay tax liability; D = disposition to issuer.
Context
- This was not an open-market purchase or discretionary sale; it was compensation-related vesting and net settlement. The withholding of shares to cover taxes is a routine, cashless-like settlement common when restricted or performance awards vest.
- PSUs that vested at 200% increased the number of shares issuable compared with target awards; the filing shows portions of those vested shares used to satisfy tax obligations and surrender requirements rather than being held or sold in the market.
