Context

• These were vesting-related transactions (restricted stock units converting to common shares). Part of the shares issued on vesting were used to satisfy tax withholding per the filing; separately Sloan sold 120 shares on the open market. Such transactions tied to vesting/tax withholding are common and do not, by themselves, indicate a change in insider sentiment.
