Key Details

• Transaction date: August 20, 2026; Form 4 filed August 24, 2026 (timely within the two-business-day window).
• Sales reported:
  • 10,994 shares @ weighted-average $37.78 — proceeds $415,362 (prices in that batch ranged $38.28–$38.98 per filing footnote F4).
  • 3,910 shares @ weighted-average $38.47 — proceeds $150,399 (prices in that batch ranged $37.22–$38.19 per filing footnote F2).
• Total shares sold: 14,904; total reported proceeds: about $565,761.
• Reason/footnotes: Footnote F1 states these sales were mandatory "sell-to-cover" transactions to satisfy statutory tax withholding on RSU vesting; F3 confirms a portion of the securities were RSUs (each RSU converts to one share). The reported prices are weighted averages and represent multiple executions (F2, F4).
• Shares owned after the transaction: not specified in the summary data provided in this request.

Context

• These sales were tax-withholding related (routine) rather than discretionary purchases or market-timed sales; such sell-to-cover transactions are common when RSUs vest and do not necessarily signal insider sentiment.
• Transaction code: S = Sale. F (as noted in the filing) reflects tax-withholding/sell-to-cover activity associated with awards.
