Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-02-12; Form 4 filed: 2026-02-17 (appears to be one business day late from the standard 2-business‑day requirement).
• Transaction type/code: A = Award/Grant of equity.
• Shares/units granted: 33,584 RSUs; price reported: $0.00.
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided filing.

Context

• This is a compensation award (time‑based RSUs) intended for retention/long‑term alignment; it does not represent an immediate purchase or sale of stock. Vesting over four years means the economic benefit depends on continued service and future stock price at vesting.
