Key Details

  • Transaction dates and prices:
    • 2026-05-03: 6,197 shares @ $16.28 = $100,887 (withheld for taxes; footnote F1)
    • 2026-05-04: 4,365 shares @ $15.82 = $69,054 (withheld for taxes; footnote F2)
  • Total shares withheld: 10,562; total value ≈ $169,941.
  • Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided details; filing notes the balance includes 4,099 shares purchased through the company Employee Stock Purchase Plan (footnote F3) that were not previously reported.
  • Footnotes:
    • F1: Withholding relates to RSUs granted May 3, 2024.
    • F2: Withholding relates to RSUs granted May 4, 2023.
    • F3: Balance includes 4,099 ESPP shares not previously reported.
  • Filing: Form filed 2026-05-05 for transactions on 2026-05-03 and 2026-05-04. This appears to be timely (filed within the typical two-business-day window).

Context

  • These were tax-withholding dispositions tied to RSU vesting (routine administrative transactions), not open-market sales initiated by the insider; such withholding is common and does not necessarily signal a change in the insider’s view of the company.
  • The ESPP shares (F3) indicate an employee purchase that was simply added to the reported balance.
