- Transaction date: 2026-06-28; Form filed 2026-06-30 (appears timely).
- Conversions/exercises (code M): +492 shares and +820 shares at $0.00 (total 1,312 shares converted/vested).
- Automatic derivative disposals (code M, $0): 492 and 820 shares — these reflect shares withheld/removed to cover taxes. (See F2.)

Context
- The M-code conversions at $0 typically reflect RSU vesting or a non-cash stock conversion rather than an option exercise requiring cash payment. The simultaneous $0 disposals indicate automatic sell-to-cover for tax withholding, while the separate S-code sales were open-market transactions generating cash proceeds.
- These transactions are routine for employees receiving RSUs and exercising/vesting shares; they are factual disclosures and do not by themselves indicate the insider’s view of the company.
