    • F4/F5: Prior RSU grants (Mar 1, 2023 and Mar 1, 2024) vest in annual installments in prior years.
    • F6: The March 2, 2026 grant of 4,540 RSUs vests in three equal annual installments starting Mar 2, 2027.

Context

  • The M code indicates exercise or conversion of derivative securities (here, consistent with RSU conversions noted in footnotes). The F code denotes shares surrendered to satisfy tax withholding — a routine, non-market sale of shares to cover taxes (often called share withholding or cashless withholding).
  • The March 2 grant is an RSU award that vests over future years and does not represent an immediate market purchase or sale.
  • These filings are generally informational; conversions and tax withholdings are common administrative insider transactions and do not necessarily signal a change in the insider’s view of the company.
