Context

• The 391-share disposition was a tax-withholding action tied to vesting, not an open-market sale indicating a change in sentiment. Restricted-share awards that vest and have shares withheld for taxes are common compensation mechanics for directors and do not necessarily reflect buy/sell decisions.
