- Footnotes:
- F1: Awards were restricted stock units (RSUs) under the 2021 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan (vest over three years; settle in shares; dividend equivalents accrue).
- F2: Some shares represent vested performance shares granted Jan 2023 that met performance criteria.
- Filing date: Form 4 filed 2026-02-27 for transactions on 2026-01-08 to 2026-01-10 — the filing appears not to be timely (filed more than the usual 2-business-day window).
Context
- These transactions are compensation-related (RSU grants and performance-share vesting) with shares withheld to satisfy tax obligations — common, routine insider activity and not the same signal as an open-market buy or sell.
- Code F indicates payment of tax liability (withholding/cashless settlement), meaning shares were surrendered to cover taxes rather than a discretionary sale.
