Context

• Gifts are a disposition that do not reflect a cash sale and do not necessarily indicate the insider’s view on the company’s stock price; they are often for personal or estate-planning reasons.
• The filing includes multiple footnotes related to the recent 2-for-1 stock split and adjustments to equity awards; these affect share counts in other holdings and awards but do not change the nature of this gift transaction.
