Context
This was a routine vesting/conversion of restricted equity (GSUs) and withholding to cover taxes — common for executives when awards vest. No open-market sale or cash purchase is indicated, so this filing does not represent a directional buy or sell in the open market. These actions are administrative (vesting and tax withholding) rather than a discretionary sale or purchase signal.
