Context

The Apr 24 action was a cash settlement of notional units (no shares issued); the Apr 27 action was standard RSU vesting with shares issued but partially withheld for taxes (common practice).
- Such settlements/givebacks are routine compensation events and do not necessarily signal a personal buy/sell decision about the company's stock.
