Key Details
- Transaction date: May 1, 2026 (filed with the SEC on May 4, 2026 — generally within the Form 4 two-business-day filing window).
- Acquired: 1,712 shares via RSU conversion at $0.00 per share.
- Disposed: 1,712 shares sold at $70.81 per share for $121,227 (reported as a derivative transaction).

Context This was a conversion of vested RSUs followed by a sale of the resulting shares; the $0.00 acquisition price reflects RSU conversion rather than a cash purchase. Such post-vesting sales by non-employee directors are common (often for compensation monetization or tax purposes) but the filing itself does not state the reason. The report appears to have been filed promptly after the May 1 transaction.
