Key Details
- Transaction date: March 4, 2026.
- Open-market sale: 11,277 shares at a weighted average price of $32.46; total reported proceeds $366,102. Price range for the sales: $32.095–$33.30 (per filing).

Context
- This filing combines RSU vesting/settlement and a routine tax‑withholding sale. The derivative/award entries indicate conversion or settlement of restricted share units rather than an exercised option followed by a market sale for profit taking.
- Sales to cover tax withholding are common when equity awards vest and do not necessarily signal a change in insider sentiment. The 10b5‑1 plan indicates the sale was prearranged.
