What Happened

  • To satisfy tax withholding obligations, 562 and 563 shares (total 1,125 shares) were withheld at a price of $150.12 per share, resulting in cash value withheld of $84,367 and $84,518 (total $168,885). Net shares added to his position from this vesting event: 908 shares.
  • The filing also shows corresponding derivative (RSU) cancellation/settlement entries with $0 value reflecting the conversion/settlement of the RSUs.

Key Details
